These past couple of days have had me dreaming of all things spring. I long for the warmer days filled with sunshine and flowers starting to bloom. Until then, I have to settle for making my outfits feel as if spring were right around the corner! One of my favorite color palates has always been pastels. The soft colors in uplifting shades never cease to put a smile on my face. As you may very well know, I have a certain affinity for blush, but my second favorite is without a doubt mint. I'm so drawn to the bluish-green hue and it always seems to have a calming serene affect. This dress from Everly has beautiful scalloped edges along the arm hole and is the prettiest shade of mint. I layered a bow blouse and trench coat with this since it most certainly is not spring yet here. In fact, the temperature kept dropping as I was taking these photos. We're going into a single digit cold snap. *Sigh* Anyway, this layered look would be great for the beginning of spring when the weather is still a bit cool.

A very happy Wednesday morning to everyone! I cannot believe it is the day before New Years Eve already. Amazing how time flies by when you're having fun and raising a baby haha. Does anyone have any special plans for New Years?

Plaid has always been a go-to print for me because of how classic it is. Each piece of this ensemble has a timeless feeling in its own right and when put together, the outcome is one of simple elegance. The khaki trench coat from Shein is a piece you will wear over and over again and never tire of. I always think of Rick and Ilsa from Casablanca when it comes to classic trench coats! It has a great heavy material and a cute plaid inner lining. I always love a plaid button down underneath a cozy sweater. It's simple and chic, plus it adds that needed warmth. Another timeless piece that will get good use is a gold watch. This one from Rumba Time has the look and feel of a high end designer, but without the price tag. Win-Win! I was pretty amazed by the detail and quality of this piece and love how it'll go with just about any outfit I pair it with ranging from little black dresses to button downs with jeans. Last, but not least, a great pair of tortoise shell sunnies will keep you stylish the whole year round. This pair from Freyrs, for only $39.95, sit comfortably on my face and feel so very vintage inspired, which I adore. They look and feel more expensive than they really are. They have a medium fit so if you are not into the over sized sunnies, then these are definitely for you.
