Ready for Spring

Top: H&M, Maxi skirt: Forever 21, Booties: Asos, Accessories: Karen Walker sunglasses, J.Crew necklace, Best Personalized Jewelry monogram (c/o), (kno) name flektor watch (c/o), Anthropologie ring, bombom dainty ring (c/o), Foley & Corinna bag

Who else is ready for spring? It's raining today in the Bay Area and all the stores have changed over to their spring weather collections, which has me lusting for spring more and more. This pretty lilac maxi skirt is one of the first pieces I've acquired in this sweet color. My favorite color is purple but ironically, I don't own many purple colored pieces. To be honest, I'm not much of a pastel color kind of gal (in terms of wearing the colors) so I opted to "edge" up the lilac skirt with a loose-fit nautical stripe shirt, black booties and a gunmetal color handbag. And that's how I'm wearing pastels lately.

Loving those jeans! I need to do my own diy! I love seeing a blogger re-work a piece. It's great to see how different the look is just by changing the shirt, adding a blazer, etc.

Love the lilac pick pleated skirt with the striped top. It is feminine & edgy at the same time! Stay dry this weekend - we are expecting some downpour this weekend.

I love pastel colors. But I'm a crazy girly girl. :P I think this color looks great on you and that you add in your own personal touch with the striped top and black boots. Very cool. And your hair is looking so pretty in these photos! Do you use a curling or flat iron to do it? <3
