Minty Leopard

Skirt: Target | Necklace: Groopdealz | Bracelets: Charlotte Russe & Jawbone UP, Alex & Ani | Shoes: Shoedazzle

When I read about this weeks Trend Spin Linkup I knew I wanted to wear this top. I immediately went for this skirt because I've been reaching for it since I bought it back at the beginning of this month.

However, when I put the two together for SJL I got the 'meh' look. (You know the one ladies.)

So then I remembered an outfit I saw on Pinterest and whipped out these shorts and received the nod of approval. But I still liked the skirt pairing so I brought out my 'Wilma' necklace and skully bracelet for a little photo fun anyway- 'meh' look be damned.

Now don't get me wrong- if there is something I want to try out I will, but its always nice to know my other half is going to want to look at me while I'm in it. =)

So what do you do when your S.O. isn't keen on something you thought was perfect?

In either case, I felt fierce in this top.

Follow me!

Neon & Peacocks

The fiance and I went to dinner at "our place" the other night and I jumped at the chance to wear neon and my new flats. This was of course before the "rain" came in.

(I say this with a touch of bitters, as all week they said our area was going to just get rain. NBD they said. It will pass quick they said...pffttt.)

I am excited for all of the spring trends this year. I've always loved pastels and florals (such a girl I know), and neon is just such fun. I also have a thing for quirky jewels like this necklace and some swan earrings I'm excited to show ya.

What do you think of my necklace?

LPD

The Little pink dress! The only thing better than a LBD is a LPD because...well its pink. Any shade of pink counts but I'm really digging hot pink (and that tangerine color below). And who doesn't love sequins?!

The LPD can be worn casually on the weekends with this shoe or to go out dancing with your girlfriends (Hell-OH sequins!). You can have just one and dress it up or down like the shirt-dress (again I'm coming back to this one) with just the change of shoes. Booties and tights can make it appropriate for now and the color alone is perfect for spring and summer!

I don't own very many but dresses are so versatile and truly fem- I'm trying to add more to my wardrobe this year.

What sorts of items are you wanting to add to your wardrobe that can be used over and over again?
