dotty

Feeling a little matchy-matchy today with dot on spot patterns. I always love that touch of whimsy to any tailored look -- it keeps it from being too serious.

With the promise of pastels for spring, light on light colors are front and center, especially with those small pops of color like fuchsia, yellow and sea-foam. It is such an effortless look with different textures and shades of white that work seamlessly. Sadly you can't tell but I am wearing the brightest pink lip-color that I love -- I definitely need to work on perfecting my beauty photography.

I've always been a fan of incorporating a little Mickey in my wardrobe (seen here). His cute little mug along with that infamously stylish color combo of red, white, black and gold never fails.

winter bloom

Spring needs to hurry up. I'm pretty much jumping at the chance to wear this season's brightest colors sans coat/sweater/boots/tights etc. Not to mention mixing as many patterns as acceptably possible.

I love this color combination. Sometimes it's fun to step away from the prints and play with bright hues -- and red is seriously the most versatile color I own right now. Haven't you notice?

the sweater dress

Theoretically, this "sweater dress" is a lot too short to be considered a real dress, but I liked the leggy vibe it gives. And I loved the fact that I scored it half off during one of Anthro's freak sweater sales before Christmas. It's nice to have an easy, cozy uniform going into January, and ten brownie points for its perfect shade of mustard yellow.
