The Rainbow Connection [of Outerwear]

Why can't winter be colorful? Lately, a lot of retailers are offering shoppers an array of options when it comes to outerwear, especially when it comes to colors. Almost every color of the rainbow, in many shades and hues, can be found and easily worn. Wearing a bright orange or yellow jacket, for instance, might seem too scary and extreme, but both look great when paired with khaki pants or dark wash skinnies. Purple leather gloves can amp up a dreary cold day look. Scarves in royal blue and hot pink make adorable accessories that go with almost anything.

So this winter, don't let your accessories and outerwear be blah and colorless--stand out in a rainbow of shades!


What's your favorite bright color?

Strolling Through the Flowers

I can't believe it's almost summer! I'm so ready for school to be over (only one more week of classes left and then finals) so I can spend my summer tanning out on my deck, going for long walks through the trees and just enjoying every second of the warm weather.
One item on my wishlist for summer '11 is a romper (or two)! I have loved them since last summer, when I first started seeing them a lot. They are the perfect alternative to a dress--great for when you want to look a little dressy and carefree at the same time. Many that I've seen this season are chambray, and while I'm normally a fan, I would prefer a floral romper to accentuate my girly style. A bright color would be great for standing out!
