pastel spring

pants (SIMILAR): Marshall's // shirt (HERE) + link ring (HERE) c/o Style Lately // jacket (SIMILAR): Forever21 // shoes (SIMILAR): Charlotte Russe // bag (SIMILAR) + watch (SIMILAR) c/o LuLu*s // necklace (HERE): Classic & Bubbly // nails: Essie 'Fiji' 


Can we start off by talking about my obsession for this shirt?! I love graphic tee's (as most everyone does these days) but this specific one from Style Lately is different. It fits a little larger than size so you can wear it with leggings. jeans, or a skirt, the material is super soft but doesn't look like a comfy shirt so it can be dressed up or down. See all around perfection. 

The second subject I want to discuss this Monday morning is pastels. Every spring I look forward to seeing what the color pallets will be. This year pastels are in full force (and noooo it doesn't have to be Easter to wear pastels!) which for me is a little difficult. Why? I probably have the whitest of white skin so wearing soft colors is not always flattering for me..insert sad face. To get around this dilemma I pick my pastel items carefully. Today I choose pale pink pants + styled it with a denim jacket instead of picking denim pants with a pale pink shirt that way the pastel is not directly against exposed skin so no clashing is happening. For all my fair skinned princesses who struggle with the pastel trend I suggest switching up your items by choosing pastels in accessories, shoes, or bottoms!

I love those shoes, and that top! Pastels make me look like a ghost, but I think I am gaining the confidence to try them out again!
