A Color Story


I find inspiration in practically every facet of my life. One day while perusing a home décor site I came across a glorious color combination. Immediately I was taken by it, and I thought of how I might be able to play it out in real life, not in my décor- but in my wardrobe- LOL! Yes this duo of pastel pink and rich green was love at first site! I saved it to my ‘to-do’ list on Pinterest to be executed as soon as possible.  

As it just so happened, my friends over at The Perfect Pair Boutique sent me this dreamy top – serious pastel pink perfection.  I was so excited because shortly after receiving it I had the realization that the acquisition of this top meant that I was  finally going to have the opportunity to play out my color adventure in real life 😊

Since this top is over-sized, I opted to style it with a pencil skirt- as a balancing act, but I’m also considering this pair of pants to pair it with in the future. I just love it when a plan comes together! Plus, I have one less thing on my ‘to-do’ list, and we all know how checking tasks off as completed feels wonderful!

Until next time,
XO

    You wear colors so well. I have never tried emerald green with blush pink but I love it. Your skirt, shoes and stole are all fabulous as is your hair. And what a gorgeous art wall - it matches your beautiful outfit, too. =)


    I'd love for you to stop by my blog and join my linkup this week. Plus, I have a special celebration on the blog going on, come take a peek. =)

    Love these colors together. I've used home décor for fashion inspiration too, especially color combinations in striped pillows.
