Sweater Dress Perfection

Though I long for sunshine, chiffon day dresses and sandals, my dreams are put on hold by unspringlike weather! For now, I have to settle for a printed wrap dress. I can't complain because I adore the rich print and the crispness of a wrap dress and a black pump.

Ruffles

It's true that you can't go wrong with an LBD, but why not add daring details? I consider the ruffles on the dress a statement piece, but on my shoulders! This is my go-to LBD because of the fitted waist, chic shoulder details and pleated sides that make for one flirtatious frock! (Did I mention the exposed zipper on the back? LOVE!) I'm dying over the ankle strap trend and the sandal pairs so easily with the rest of the look because of the minimalist features, thin ankle strap and the snakeskin back!

Coral Crop

My love affair with color is no secret, so I was ecstatic to find these amazing coral crop pants. (As you can tell, I've also been suffering from a slight obsession with the crop pant lately) The touch of glam with the sequin top is perfection to me as is the marrying of coral with pops of neon.

Tweed and Shimmer

Today's pairing is the olive pant with a tweed top that has metallic thread woven, in to add for a touch of shimmer. I love the small elements within this ensemble from the metallic to the bow on the back of the top to the zippers on the pockets of the pants! It's the little things!

Pop Of Neon

Spring flurries are in the air and with each day that passes the rays of sunshine get a little brighter and the temperatures rise a slight degree. I'm ready to test-drive my spring essentials and find myself day dreaming of pastels, strappy sandals and garden party frocks. For now, the pop of neon on my slingbacks and a metallic top will have to suffice. 13 days until we are spring official!

Hello March!

So it isn't officially spring, but buttercups are blooming and pastels are imploding the windows of all my favorite retailers.  I'm welcoming March with open arms and I refuse to wait until Easter to wear white pants!  I'm adoring the seriously chic mint color for spring, so I was ecstatic to find this light-weight mint sweater with muted designs.
