OOTD: Comfy Florals

Hello-o lovelies!

So on Friday my friend and fellow blogger (click here to check her out) decided to head to our local mall to do some shopping!

When I go shopping, my outfit has to be 

1. comfortable 

2. easy to change out of

 3. hands free

So this rules out uncomfortable jackets that I probably will have to carry around, clutches, high heels,  and sweaters.

Why sweaters? Because when you are constantly in and out of the dressing rooms, changing out of sweaters can be a static party for your hair. You can combat this by bringing a dryer sheet, but it still brings unwanted hassle to your shopping experience.

For this outfit, I chose some really soft and comfortable high waisted shorts, a cropped floral tank, and a cream cardigan. For shoes I chose my oxfords, and I decided to keep the accessorizing minimal because it can be a hassle to be shopping with too much clinking and clanging going on: a simple necklace will do the trick. 

Finally I chose one of my favorite purses for the springtime. It's neutral, and has a hint of coral which adds a fun pop of color!

Side note: I also suggest bringing a hair tie, because sometimes a simple ponytail is just what a girl needs on a tiring shopping day! 

Where things are from:

Top: Hand-me-down 

Shorts: F21

Cardigan: H&M

Shoes: Ross; Madden Girl

Bag: Coach

Necklace: F21

My next spring trends post should be up in a few days! Until next time! XOXO

Wearing Spring Trends: Pastels

Hello lovelies!~
So this is a start of my spring trends series where I find some wearable trends that are currently in this spring 2014.
To start it off, I'm  going to start with a trend that I wear regardless if it is "in" or not.
Pastels! 
I already love this trend as for some reason, I am strangely attracted to pastel shades.
Here are my tips on wearing this trend.

1. Do not overdue it! Keep it to around 2-3 pieces of pastels, as seen above, I only used two pastels.
2. White is lovely with pastels, it really contrasts well with the pastels and brightens up your outfit!
3. If you aren't a huge light and girly color wearer, I suggest maybe going for some pastel nail polish or jewelry.
4. Color block! If you aren't afraid of jumping on this trend train, color blocking is a bold and fun way to wear this trend.
5. With pastels you can either go girly with lace, frills, peter pan collars, etc.
or even edgy with cleaner cuts; you don't need those frills!
6. If this isn't really your trend, try a neutralish base; white jeans, faded denim, black blazer, etc!
7. Gold jewelry really stands out against the pastel shades, while silver blends in more and is a softer look!

That's all for now! Comment below what you think of this trend, and any suggestions that you have for wearing pastels!
Until next time~ XOXO
