The 3 P's of Pretty


Gals, it's time! Time for all the whites. Easter is Sunday and that means it's officially the season of light and bright styles.  Personally, I'd wear white all day every day if I could - if you've been reading this blog for any length of time or know me in real life you know that's true.

I also believe in classic styles but you need to mix in some statement details so that you're wardrobe isn't too simple. This top is the ticket!
It has the 3 P's of Pretty: Pink, Polka Dot, & Peplum.  And as a bonus Puff Sleeves! They are a trending detail that I'm so happy about.  I have a very petite upper body so they give me balance and draw the eye upwards.
Puff sleeves were all the rage in the 80's & 90's - let's not go to that extreme, but a little pleating and volume will most definitely elevate your style.

The polka dots are in a precious shade of blush and the peplum adds a crisp flare.  I swapped out the fabric sash for a belt of my own because the colors matched and I tend to always add my own belts.  Belts are one of my favorite accessories and I have some fantastic vintage pieces.  They add texture and accessorize in a way like jewelry.

I feel that most gals tend to style tops and bottoms with contrast. Meaning if one is light the other must be dark. That's not a rule to be followed.  I find it very pretty to pair lights with lights and darks with darks.

I also feel that just because a piece is a statement that it shouldn't be kept for special occasions. Style this top with a pair of shorts for a day with your gal pals, a skirt for church, trousers for the office and jeans for date night.


These pants are a comfortable staple.  Easy breeze and great for weekdays and weekends. In a cropped length they can also highlight any shoe.





These Shoes!!! They were my Valentine's Day gift.  They are so shiny in a pretty rose gold and oh so comfortable in a mid heel.  They come in a higher heel (and more colors) but I prefer moderate height. You'll see these on my feet a lot!
