Surely you've heard that pastels are making a major splash this spring.  Don't hold off until then to sport it--just toss on some layers be it chambray, denim, or a trench & you can totally sport the trend prior to the warmer months (which we had a glimpse of yesterday)!  Y'all make it a good one & we'll chat Monday!

The Snow Day

sweatshirt (Current Elliot see SIMILAR), button down (J.Crew, alternative options), jeans (DL1961), bag (Michael Kors), kicks (Nike), watch (Michael Kors), shades (Gucci), bracelets (Stella & Dot & Asos), ring (Lagos), necklaces (Target)

It was winter wonderland-esque in the Bluegrass this past weekend.  I absolutely loved it, my brother & father in town from FL, not so much (they packed flip flops)!!  One tidbit I'd like to point out from this rig...the necklaces--two different necklaces doubled up from Target.  I've been know to do this doubling up bit (see HERE & HERE) a time or two--highly recommend as it's super affordable and I find it more robust to add two pieces.  Alright gang, make it a good one!  

PS:  by all appearances it seems the glitch is fixed...let me know if you're still seeing anything funky.  Take note, the "Pin It" button is now below the images.  It was a miracle I was even able to install a second time--so Pin Away!

Graphic Snow

pants (J.Crew), blazer & blouse (GAP lovely Silk Option), kitten heels (J.Crew), bag (Michael Kors), bracelets (J.Crew & Stella & Dot), shades (Gucci), watch (Michael Kors)

 

Dangit if Blogger isn't throwing some major mayhem at my post this morn!!  Not a stinking clue what is going on here (awaiting some troubleshooting from graphic designer), but my sincerest apologies for the lack of order on the layout, gang!  The OCD in me is about to jump out of my skin, but it was either now or never for my post so I just said to heck with it.  Afterall, it's the rig we ultimately care about, right?  Speaking of, These Pants are doing it for me these days.  They are the perfect foundation for a fun splash of color (and they just so happen to slenderize the stems which ain't a bad thing either).  Technically they are classified as a jean, but I'm telling you, this look could totally be worn to a business casual office setting.  
Here's to a fantastic start to your week!  If anyone has any suggestions regarding what in the heck is going on with my layout...send em' my way (tech savvy I am NOT)!
