Spring Trends: White on White

Hey everyone! I am back with another of my series for wearable spring trends.

This time I am going to show you guys one of my favorites: White on White.

This was also a trend, although not a prominent, last spring. Here are my tips to attack this trend!

1. Add splashes of COLOR! That way, your outfit isn't just completely monochromatic, but it has a little bit of fun in it! For example, a neon wallet, or bright sunnies! I think even bright lipstick would be stunning!

2. To go along with tip #1, choose Pastels if you want to have a softer look; likewise, choose Bright colors for a BOLD look.

3. Keep your accessories simple. The white on white is already a statement: a hunk of jewelry will just block the boldness of this look- not to mention, you'll look cluttered.

4. A easy way to break the monochromatic look of this trend is to tie a flannel around your waist. 

5. For the bold: long pants really show off this trend. For the less bold: shorts can still pull of the trend, but it won't be as big of a statement. A white dress is most likely the easiest way to wear this trend.

6. I suggest silver jewelry for a clean and fresh look!
7. This isn't really a styling tip, but it is re-allllyy important! Carry around some Tide pens or stain removers because this is a tricky trend to wear- it gets dirty really easily!
8. This trend is easier to style for casual wear than formal wear. But for a little more of a formal look, a little white dress and some cute white wedges are a simple way to wear this trend without being to dramatic.
9. Make sure your shades of white are around the SAME! Contrary to popular belief, not all whites are the same. Before heading out the door do a quick color check. When two drastically different whites are put together, the look isn't as clean. 

Tell me what YOU think of this trend! How are you liking this series? Do you have any suggestions for future Spring Trends posts? Comment below!

Daisy Days

Spring Hauling: F21, Target, and Macy's

Hello my lovely daisies!~
I decided to do some shopping today to relax after taking the ACT ^_^
Today wasn't one of  those plentiful shopping days, but I did find some cute items
Let's get started, shall we?

Macy's

At Macy's I picked up this Elizabeth Arden Green Tea Perfume set.
I had smelled the Green Tea and Honeysuckle Scent before, and I had fallen in love. I was looking to pick up the full size of that scent, but the counter did not have it in stock. My eyes fell on this set and I immediately wanted to try this out. All the scents are really lovely, but my favorite is still the Green Tea and Honeysuckle. For only $25, you get four .5 fl. ounce bottles.

Target

I wanted to get some new nail polishes for spring, so I stopped by one of my favorite stores: Target. 

First I picked up Watermelon by Essie

It is a beautiful bright pink-not hot pink, but a more of a light berry-ish color

       

                                                                                         

 Next up, Go Ginza by Essie 

It is a lovely lilac color. It has hints of a light pink.

I used to have Lilacism by Essie as well, but that is more of a purple color, and has more of a grey base, while this color has more of a white base, if you know what I mean!

Here I have L'Oreal's Smell the Roses 330. I saw this on clearance for 47 cents!? So I had to pick this up. It is a pretty nude-ish pink that is more on the darker side, so I think this might be a pretty color for painting my toes.

Finally I picked up a top coat. this is Sally Hansen Insta-Dri in 110 Clearly Quick.

I was looking to pick up Seche Vite, but that was out of stock. So I returned to one of my old time favorites for a quick drying, inexpensive top coat. 

F21

I picked up this beautiful cream crop top. It is really versatile, either paired with high waisted shorts or skater skirts. 

Next, I picked up this muscle tank that totally brought out the nerd in me. 

It is the famous quote from Shakespeare's Hamlet beginning "To be or not to be"

I thought this would be an easy, casual top to wear on those hot summer/spring days with maybe a bandeau underneath.

Finally I picked up this cute dainty necklace. I am in love with wearing simple necklaces, as they are really casual and look adorable with every outfit without overpowering the look. 

That's all for now! What have you picked up recently? Comment below!

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
