My Preferred Neutral

Last year I was in love with the color blush. I hunted for the muted tone in clothes, shoes, and makeup. This year, I can't get enough animal print. I'm loving any subtle pieces - shoes, boots, a shirt. Nothing to harsh, like a dress. Just pieces to use as neutrals. Here are some sample outfits from Polyvore:



Love the colors not necessarily the pieces of this one:

Here's some of what I've added to my collection:
My version of animal print shiny earrings. Forever 21 $6.80

Animal print flat Target $12

I only bought these boots because the were 70% off. I didn't like the elastic. Honestly, they are the most comfortable boot I own and you can't see the elastic with pants and jeans. Target $8

I have a very similar blouse from Lane Bryant (couldn't find pic online) $20

What's your favorite neutral this season?

Something Old New Again

You ever have an outfit that is no longer new, but you weren't ready to give it up? Almost a year ago I got this outfit although a year doesn't necessarily make it old, I wanted to sprouse it up a bit. I have been reading about elbow patches recently and thought that it would be pretty. I'm not sure if it worked because I didn't get any compliments, but it was fun to wear. I put these purple sequin patches on the elbow of the sweater.

What have you done to make old things new again?

Outfits (pic heavy)

I saw these on Facebook (look for "Dresses") and saved them as inspiration looks.

I am a new fan of yellow and pink.


Black, gold, camel, and animal print nicely done.


LOVE the bag and the polish.


I had to admit to my daughter that mint is now my favorite color. I felt like I was admitting I was cheating on purple.








I love the class and simplicity of this.


Cute.

NYC trends

Here's some of the trends I saw while in NYC. Really pretty flowy materials and unapologetic summer attire. At home we dress in heavy materials cut for summer heat. Not so here. Fabrics and cuts invite warm temps.
