80’s Accent

If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a thousand times. I love neon. And despite being raised in the 80’s, I am still working on getting my neon fix. But instead of layering multiple neons together, I am loving it as an accent, especially when paired back to unexpected neutrals!

Another trend that I am loving right now is the embellished sweatshirt.  Really, how fun that we have the option to be totally and completely comfortable while still adding a touch of sparkle! 

Hope everyone is having a fantastic week.  Thanks for reading!

Mint To Be

Like everyone else this season, I think it’s pretty safe to say that I am obsessed with the color mint. It is such a beautiful, refreshing hue and goes with such a multitude of things. But right now I am especially loving it back to neutrals…

I think a neutral leather (or faux if your prefer) jacket is a must have item in any closet.  Especially this time of year when we start to gravitate towards brighter colors and pastels.  It’s a great basic and the perfect alternative for your go-to black jacket!
