Monthly Challenge: Winter Pastels

Most people think of pastels for spring but the rules have been thrown out the window.


 Pants Jcrew/ Shirt Gap Outlet kinda close/ Shoes Jcrew viv heels/ Necklace Express on clearance in stores/ Bracelet #1 Stella and Dot/ Bracelet #2 Gifted from Noelle/ Bracelet #3 Pandora

Finding the right size stripes can be difficult, but no one can overstress to try everything on. Keep in mind while trying to tackle the vertical stripe...less is more. Instead of an entire vertical print, try keeping it to one dramatic line. This top I fell in love with because of the smaller horizontal stripes right at the tummy area, very flattering and also the fact that the color of the year is emerald green! Yay! How do you feel about these hues in the winter? To find out more about this trend and read some other awesome blogs check out Marion's blog.
