Pretty in Pink Lookbook

I have been wearing so much blush this winter, so I thought I would round up some of my favorites to share with you!

From casual to dressy, blush and light shades of pink can easily be dressed up or down depending on the material or accessory. Here I’m sharing my favorite sweater, dress, and faux fur shawl all in this stunning shade! I’ll show you how I complement blush with prints, textures and other colors to create the perfect look.

Evening

Velvet, faux fur, fringe and floral prints! Yes, that might sound like a lot to have going on it one look, but trust me it works! This drop waist velvet dress from Charming Charlie is absolutely perfect! It is comprised of a lightweight burnout velvet and is fully lined. Since it is a bit chilly I decided to add this luxe faux fur shawl to the ensemble to keep my shoulders warm. It really brings out the floral design and complements the color palette. I paired this with burgundy exaggerated fringe earrings from Baublebar, and olive faux suede stilettos from Urban OG.

Dressy Monochrome

My fave! So this blush metallic beauty is from Express and was actually my New Years Eve pick! The dress is a mini and features defined shoulder pads and a cut out back. I added my shawl to this look as well for a bit of texture and warmth, but decided to add a pop of color with my accessories!

I wanted to add a darker color, so I went with emerald green. Both my clutch and earrings are from Stella & Dot. I love the fringe design and sparkling accents. Everything comes together so well to create a polished look!

Casual

So this blush sweater was one of my favorite Nordstrom sale finds! I have enjoyed wearing it so much this season as it is super soft and so easy to layer. For this look I have paired it with a periwinkle bralette and dark wash denim from Factory Fashion. This is a super effortless look, and is perfect for the weekend.

Blush is such a transitional shade and can easily be paired with so much! I am one to generally purchase staple colors as getting ready in the morning is so much faster, but have noticed lately blush has become one of my staples! It is just such a great color can can really go with anything!

Chloe Dao Boutique & My Fav Fall Color

So back in July Chloe Dao celebrated her birthday by throwing a 50% sale at her Houston boutique! I had never visited the season 2 Project Runway winners store before but just had to go and check it out! Her store is super mod and her assortment is amazing! There is something for everyone with a touch of fun prints, edgy hems, and lux fabrics.

I purchased this oh-so-cute jacket in this amazing mustard color (similar). This color is my favorite right now for the start of fall, and the design of the jacket is just perfect! What makes this visit to her store even more special is Chloe was actually there! We got to meet her and she helped us shop a bit!

So to style this look I paired the jacket with a black and white striped t-shirt by Chaps (similar) and black skinny jeans by Jessica Simpson. I want all of the attention to be on the jacket so I kept my accessories solid with my signature Kate Spade tote, and these beautiful over- the-knee boots by Steve Madden.

To give the ensemble a finishing touch I wore this exaggerated stone ring by Blandiri. It is adjustable, gorgeous, and pairs so well is so many different styles!

Retro Fab Gingham

I love gingham, but find myself rarely purchasing it. Maybe its because its usually just for summer? Maybe its because its normally offered in pastels, not too sure. But when I spotted this black and white embroidered gingham top on Amazon, I had to have it! The colors and sleeve length are perfect for transition to fall, so you can wear it in other seasons…not just the spring and summer!

I decided to pair this look with black skinny jeans and platform wedges, as this blends well with the gingham print, and accessorized with my black sunglasses and red lip ito finish off the retro vibe!

This look is so fun and totally revolves around this amazing top! The material is lightweight, and features elbow length bell sleeves. The floral embroidery is elegant with pops of beautiful reds. I love the fit and shape of the piece which is perfect for a slightly dressier look.

The Perfect Retro Red Lipstick

The lipstick I am wearing is actually YSL Glossy Lip Stain and I must say, this lipstick is wonderful! The formula is hydrating and very buildable. I love the coverage and lasting design!  – Not to mention the gorgeous packaging! I think this shade compliments the look impeccably! Sometimes the smallest of details can make all of the difference!
