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!
Reminder: Laughter is Always Pretty :)
