Easter Pastels

Happy Spring Darlings!

With Easter just around the corner we thought it would be more than appropriate to discuss pastels. And of course a favorite Easter tradition:the Easter bunny, so we borrowed the Martinez' bunny, S'mores, to add a little more Easter festivity! 

 {Autumn}

I love pastels and while picking out my outfit, it was brought to my attention that I do not have enough and I should really get more! These are pretty much the only pastels I own so I threw them all together and I really liked how they turn out. My green shirt and off-white dress are very simple so I'm always looking for different ways to wear them. I had never thought about putting them together! And for one more color, I added light pink tights. Even though it isn't too cold anymore, I still love wearing my colored tights and these are the perfect spring color. This spring, try color blocking pastels. Different solid color pastels will almost always look great together. To give my outfit a little contrast, I wore my dark brown heeled oxfords.

One of my favorite things about spring is spring fashion! I love pastels and I love how you can wear multiple pastel pieces in one outfit to make a perfect spring outfit. I second Autumn on encouraging you to color block different pastels. I think this skirt has spring written all over it. The peplum shirt flows nicely with the pencil cut skirt and adds a very feminine figure. I wanted the focus to be completely on the pastels, so I kept the rest of the outfit pretty simple. Pastels add brightness; so be confident, be proud, and shine in your pretty pastels.

Dressy Diaries

 Hey darlings! Today we want to share with you our favorite way to wear dressy yet casual outfits. These outfits are perfect for a night out or maybe just a day that you want to dress a little bit nicer. Enjoy!

{Autumn}

This is my absolute favorite dress. I love that it goes with practically anything but it isn't a solid color. It still looks good when I mix it with any color or pattern. I wore it with my turquoise striped sweater to add a fun pattern and a bright color. The pictures don't show it but my gray tights are ribbed which add another texture to my outfit. I love this outfit because I feel like it's the perfect mix of colors, patterns, and textures. I could wear this same outfit with a different shirt underneath, different colored tights, or maybe both! Of course, I added my favorite combats to complete this look. But for a more dressy look, I would wear a pair of heels. Maybe even pink ones to throw in a new color!

My outfit is based off a "tea party" inspired look. This skirt it perfect for many different styles. The pleats are fun to work with. I choose to wear it with a peplum shirt this time. The stripes plus the peplum add a very flattering look. To stay on a more causal side, I wore simple jewelry and my booties, but if you wanted to dress the outfit up you could easily wear heels. And last, but certainly not least…my hat! I found it at the end of a long, unsuccessful shopping day, and literally the whole world got better when I saw it. I love this thing. It adds a modern, sophisticated look to so many outfits, (covers up a bad hair day), and completes the whole "tea party" style.

Saint Patrick's Day

 Happy Saint Patrick's Day! We love being festive and as soon as we saw these shamrock tights we knew that we had to post about them. It was a perfect, sunny day and we grabbed our friend Leah to shoot a few pictures for us at school. This was the perfect way for us to kick off the beginning of our spring posts. 

{Mackenzie}

I love dressing up for holidays and I love tights so when Autumn suggested we do both for "Leprechaun Day" I was all over the idea. This is my go-to skirt for tights because it is the perfect length. I added the belt for a little more color and to define my waist line. I think belts are so fun to add a little POP to any outfit. I kept the rest of the outfit pretty neutral to keep the focus on the green. And the fedora added a perfect spring touch.

{Autumn}

First off, I have to give mad props to my sweet aunt Cari for practically this whole outfit. My skirt, sweater and shoes all belong to her. My new favorite thing is polka dots on polka dots. I love them! My outfit may seem a little crazy with the three different patterns but when being festive for a holiday, it's okay to be a little funky. Sometimes I get sick of doing my hair and I put it up. Usually I put it in one bun but I thought two matched the theme of my outfit. For any holiday, I suggest going to any store and picking out one festive item (usually tights or socks) and then plan your usual stylish outfit around that item. It will be perfect!

Pretty Patterns

Hello pretty people! Today we want to share some of our favorite patterned pieces and how to make them work together. Mixing patterns hasn't always been popular and sometimes it can go wrong. Here are some of our tricks to making sure your mixed patterns always look spectacular! 

{Autumn} When I mix patterns, I almost always try to keep the colors similar and the patterns very different. Stripes and florals are one of my favorite combinations. The floral pattern is big and the colored stripes are small. It may not have worked this well if the stripes were too big. Opposites in pattern shape are good! To tone the outfit down a little bit, I added my suede vest and similar color boots. Adding bright colors to the already mixed patterns would probably be a bit too much. My brown combats are my favorite shoes. I wear them almost every day and they go with pretty much anything. They are simple and perfect to add to any mixed pattern outfit! 

{Mackenzie} My outfit consists of my favorite pieces from my closet! And fortunately they all go together very well. My shrug is so fun to wear-it can be worn in so many different ways. It can easily be dressed up or down. Here I wore my favorite tank with it-which also has a pattern/texture to it. I think putting these two together makes a good contrast. When pairing patterns I try to keep them contradicting enough so they don't clash but simple enough so it's not overwhelming. Matching a neutral color with the bright pattern helps in order to not go over board.  I paired my pattern combination with my low brown boots and jeans to make a chic casual look. These are my go-to-jeans and boots, which also can be dressed  up or down. I think this outfit is great because it is very casual but still classy.

Color Pop

Hello lovelies! We want to share with you some of our favorite outfits that are more on the dressy side. For these outfits, we stuck with simple, neutral colors (specifically white) and used one of the best ways to add a color pop-- colored tights! 

 {Autumn} When wearing a solid color, like my white sweater, I prefer to mix textures and patterns. It may not be noticeable, but there is a knitted texture in my sweater. I put it with my black and white striped skirt and that gives me the perfect outfit to add any sort of color pop to. My favorite absolute favorite color is orange and I like to wear it as much as I can. I added my orange tights and a matching, colorful statement necklace for a small but bright touch. To dress up the outfit a little bit more, I wore my gray heeled booties. But if I wanted a more casual look, I would have worn my black combat boots and that would have been a perfect outfit for school! 

                                                      

{Mackenzie}                                                                                                                             {Autumn}

 {Mackenzie} When I saw this dress I instantly fell in love and knew it would be a perfect fit for my wardrobe. Although my Mom and Aunt say it reminds them something my grandma would have wore in her day, I am still in love. I think that's what I love most about it-it's just the perfect amount of vintage. Autumn got me hooked on colored tights and I believe they go just right to add some "pop" to any outfit; and they go well with the length of the dress. I wear these two pieces of jewelry quite often, they can be both dressed up and down. I think the gold adds a nice accent to the look.
