Gray, Mint & Navy

Something about this color combination really stands out to me, I love the look of mint and gray and I love mint and blue so I figured what the hell and threw them all together!

Scarf Tutorial

If you've been keeping tabs, you know scarves are some of my favorite accessories, learning to tie them, knot them, and style them can make them frustrating pieces of fabric you want to shove in a drawer and never see them again. 

Here's hoping this tutorial is easy to follow! :-)


Step 1: Lay scarf across your neck with sides hanging down, one side should be longer than the other..


Step 2: Wrap the longer end of the scarf around the back of your neck and bring to front...






Step 3: Tuck in ends of one side wrapping the edge around the loop


Step 4: Do the same with the other end...


Voila!!!

Chambray and Brights!!!!!

There is something magical that happens when the weather changes.  The brights become workplace acceptable, the sandals and peep toed shoes make a break for the front of the closet, and the tights get unceremoniously shoved into the depths of a drawer...  

Me? I took the opportunity to dress up some Chambray and mix up some bold colors.  

Chambray for the office:



Skirt - The Limited (last year), Chambray - Old Navy 


Bold Color Mixing



Skirt and Shell - JCrew, Cardigan - BR (old) 

My main idea with this outfit was to mix up some bold Spring colors that coordinated I'm a huge fan of both Green/Navy mixes and Navy/Coral mixes so I thought what the hell.  This was the result.
