Blush & Chucks


Flowy and casual in blush and gray today. This gorgeous pale pink color is really having a moment right now. I paired it with similar subtle colors, gray and white. I love the longer length of this cardigan. It's the perfect loose and comfortable layer. Gray chucks and a braid finished my casual look.

Jump.


The jumpsuit. It's like a onesie for adults. Totally wearable and totally fab. Just throw one on and accessorize! I like the loose fit of this black one from Target and the fact that it has a drawstring waist. It's always nice to be able to cinch in a bit to give a looser fit garment some shape.  My accessories today consisted of a statement necklace, neon bag, and killer heels.

Coral Stripes


Easy breezy today in stripes and denim. I've already spoken of my love for stripes so I couldn't pass on this skirt from Old Navy. I love the color combination of coral and taupe which is the perfect match for my suede Steve Madden booties. Since my stripes are wide and colorful, I decided to keep my top half simple with a white tank and denim shirt. Piles of bracelets and my bucket bag completed my spring striped look.

Gray // Camo


Here's another look from my Spring Break week. I wanted to bring new life to my gray sweater so I paired it with some loose fitting camo pants and my black mules. Kind of casual with a kick. These mules are by far my most favorite new shoes. I love that I can wear them with both dressy and casual pieces. Not to mention that they are quite comfortable.

Happy Kicks today for a fairly smooth transition back to work. Hope the rest of my week will be as easy as today was!

All Dressed in Black


Back in black. Spring Break from school also meant a little break from the blog. This is an outfit from earlier in the week. I love the simplicity of an all black ensemble. I added a little interest with a striped top and bright clutch. If you don't already own a pair of black skinny jeans and a boyfriend blazer, I highly recommend adding them to your wardrobe. They are both such versatile pieces and I find myself mixing and matching them with most everything in my closet.

This week there were multiple Happy Kicks ~ Spring Break! Quality time with my sweet son! And family and friends in town for a special weekend!

Olive & Blush


One of my favorite color combinations is olive and blush. With this outfit I took a ladylike skirt and blouse and gave them some edge with this olive vest. It's fun to sometimes pair two pieces that seem opposites. Like suede booties and a pencil skirt. A trench coat is also a classic piece that is the perfect layer in the spring. A mix of dressy and casual can make for a really fun look.

Bleed Blue.


I had to represent my home state for one more day in this sweet Social Dept. tee. As I write this post, it appears that the UCONN women are going to win the NCAA Championship. I am a very happy Connecticuter this week! The Social Dept. has tees for all states and regions of our country, so if you want to show your pride, you should check out their site (here). I dressed up my tee with a blingy necklace and t-strap pumps. A striped lightweight cardigan was the perfect outer layer to complete my blue look.

Happy Kicks tonight for the University of Connecticut and the amazing athletes that gave it their all in the tournament. Bleed Blue!

Home.


Representing my home state today in honor of the Men's and Women's basketball teams from UCONN! I'm a huge college basketball fan and I couldn't be prouder that both UCONN teams made it to the NCAA Championship game. The men play tonight and the women play tomorrow night. I will be rooting them on wearing my Home T. Today I paired it with fun printed pants, a blazer, and buckled booties. Casual and easy ~ perfect for a night watching basketball!

Happy Kicks today for the Huskies!

A beautiful, sunny Sunday calls for a double dose of denim. Its laid back. Its comfy. Its cool. My heels dressed up my boyfriend jeans just a bit. I'm also wearing this gorgeous necklace again because I just can't get enough of it. Happy Kicks today for blue skies!
