Day 5: Lace and Pastel

Happy Easter! I hope everyone had a wonderful day with their familys! When I wrote my ideas out for the 30 Day Challenge, I luckily remembered to include an outfit for Easter. Lace and Pastel. I could have gone with a couple of different looks but when I talked to my father in law he made sure to tell me that Easter brunch was casual...."jeans casual". Yes, my over dressing for holidays and get togethers has made it so people now need to express to me how casual a get together is. So jeans it was.



Since I had to wear jeans I went with this gorgeous layered lace spaghetti strap top and a minty green cardigan. Lace and pastel...check. Added a multi-strand beaded necklace and some matching bangles and I was ready to go!

 Couldn't resist including this goofy picture of little Miss Lily! 😍

I found this gorgeous lace off the shoulder top at Forever 21, HERE, that you may like. They also have a similar mint colored cardigan for only 12.90 which you can find HERE!

Summer dresses in Fall and Winter (part 1)

On a warmish (and by warmish I obviously mean over 40* and not snowing) winter day I like to bring out some of my summer dresses and pair them with either tights or black leggings. Be sure to add a long cardigan, an infinity or blanket scarf to stay warm and to help transition your dress fully to the next season. Finish off the look with boots. Depending on the length of your dress or just your personal preference, thigh high, knee high or even ankle boots will work!

Colored Jeans

Colored jeans are a fun easy way to step out of the everyday usual blue jean go to. Browns, burnt oranges, burgundy, olive and other greens, grey along with white if your super daring, are perfect shades for Fall and winter. The safe way to wear the colored jean would be to add a solid shirt or blouse. Try something new though. There's no reason why you should feel limited to a solid shirt, blouse or sweater. Adding a stripped black and white shirt, a pattern or gingham is not only simple but bumps your outfit up that extra notch. Super cute and super easy! I only have a burnt orangey jean right now but am seriously contemplating buying not only burgundy but an olive colored pair as well! Another awesome selling point on the colored jean is that when the baby throws up on them you can just switch them out for your favorite blue jean without having to change your top. ;) #yesthathappened #thankskid
