If you have been following my blog for a while now, you know that I love to color-block. Lucky for me, color-blocking is here to stay. One of my favorite colors right now is deep cobalt blue. It is such vibrant, rich color, and it’s a nice way to wear color this season if you don’t like the neon or pastel trends. I decided to pair it with an aqua green blouse and color-blocked sandals to match. I normally don’t go for a super-matchy outfit, but I just couldn’t resist this time!
I love the way this skirt moves with you, and flows so easily with the wind. I had to capture it in these photos.
I accessorized with my blue YSL Arty ring, a chunky gold chain necklace, and electric blue nails.
Skirt: Zara/ Blouse: Nordstrom/ Shoes: Zara/ Ring: YSL/ Sunglasses: Dior/ Watch: Michael Kors
I added a new “Pin it” button to some of my pictures so you can easily pin them to your Pinterest to share with others. Did I mention I love Pinterest!?
Also, today is the 3 month Anniversary of my blog. My blog has gone above and beyond anything I ever expected, and I owe it all to you who have supported me! Thank you so much!
