Pink and Cream Neutrals for Spring

  Blouse: Zara / Jeans: LOFT / Scarf: Forever 21 (Similar at H&M)
Sunglasses: Ray-ban / Heels: INC / Watch: Movado / Bangle: Express

If there's one color palette that I have on constant repeat all year round it's neutrals! I seriously love this super cute blouse from Zara which gives the illusion of two shirts but in fact it's all one piece. The top half is a light pink color and the bottom half is a beautiful cream in a different fabric. The blouse is so light and is perfect for springtime!

I paired this look with my most comfortable high-waist skinny jeans from LOFT and these super cute heels from INC. I love these heels because I can wear them for any occasion! The heel height is perfect too for those of us who don't like to wear tall heels for hours at a time. The heel comes in a patent nude color (there are SOO many other colors available!) and definitely pulls the outfit together. I also love this blanket scarf - it's one the most warmest blanket scarves I have. I love how I can just drape it over my shoulders and it instantly becomes a part of my outfit.

The Perfect Neutral Outfit for Dinner

Sweater: BCBGMAXAZRIA / Black Skinny Jeans: Banana Republic (Similar)
Handbag: Saint Laurent / Earrings: H&M (Similar) / Watch: Movado / Bangle: Express / Heels: Levity (Similar)

If you haven’t noticed already, I LOVE neutrals! This pretty sweater from BCBGMAXAZRIA is what I would consider the perfect sweater AND a great investment piece. It’s important to invest in neutrals that you can pair with everything. I have worn this sweater with a pair of slacks and pretty pumps for work and then also out for dinner with black skinny jeans, heels, and my Saint Laurent purse (as pictured). This long-sleeve sweater is sooo soft, flowy, comfortable, and I absolutely love how it looks. It also comes in a variety of colors – black, grey, and maroon!

Winter Blues

Blouse: Zara / Black Skinny Jeans: Banana Republic / Peacoat: Via Spiga (Similar)
Statement Necklace: BCBG (similar) / Earrings: Evil Eye (Similar) / Booties: Nine West

It's getting to that point in the year where I start dreaming about vacations, sunny skies, and warm temperatures. I cannot wait for spring to get here (seriously, can spring get here any faster?!). I could definitely say that I have the winter blues!

The blouse I am wearing is from Zara. The blouse has two long panels – one in the front and one in the back which gives it the illusion of a dress.  The blouse also has two long slits going down the side and long sleeves. I paired the blouse with black skinny jeans, a statement necklace from BCBG, booties, and my new favorite evil eye earrings which unfortunately I could not find on the H&M website anymore so I linked a similar pair.  I also love this peacoat which has this gorgeous purple lining on the inside.

Cozy High Slit Sweater

High Slit Sweater: Express / Faux Leather Leggings: Club Monaco / Tank Top: H&M
Heels: Levity (Similar) / Earrings: LOFT (Similar) / Watch: Bulova / Handbag: Zara

Sweaters have been my go-to lately with temperatures still being on the chilly side here in Philadelphia.  I love this cozy high slit sweater from Express.  The slits go pretty high up on each side, but it's such a fun trend to try this season! I paired this high slit sweater with my favorite pair of faux leather leggings from Club Monaco. The thing I love about the faux leather leggings is that the faux leather is only on the front side which makes them super comfortable.

Over the weekend a good family friend came to visit from Boston.  We all went to dinner Saturday night at a local Italian BYOB called Cafe Casta Diva (which was amazing!) followed by Karaoke. I wore this outfit as it was comfortable yet chic. We had such a fun time!

PS: My sweater is currently 40% off and the leggings are on sale also!
