Spring and Pink Thinking

Did you humour yourself into dressing for the beach yesterday? Yes, no, maybe? The first day of spring came upon us finally, and as I observed many people in passing it was as if all seemed to be in a fashion trance. This was both refreshing and a tad amusing. I think I saw everything from festival shorts with crop-corset tops to layered fur, all donned in the cold temperature.

My only state of reverie was a practical one, keeping my scarf and stylish hat in my handbag for needed occasions. But, I did browse online for holiday locations, and took a moment to dig out this dress and accessories shoot that I had been waiting to share.

I know that I’ve said it beforehand—pink is one of those colours that I love, yet there’s not an abundance of pieces in my wardrobe in this (solid) hue. What better way to embrace the introduction to spring than in pink fashion!

I also decided to make my outfit versatile by adding more accessories. I had a previous engagement with a client, and afterward caught up with a friend for drinks, so a touch of gold accents could easily alter my look.

This was my preferred combination: a jacket, blends of white and gold, and of course a little vintage (scarf) never hurt anyone. There was an additional excuse to bring out my glitter heels as well. Remember these beauties? I am so pleased that they have received a lot of link love on the internet/blogosphere over the years. 

In celebration of seasonal change, here’s a spring welcoming gift from me to you to start your weekend … beautifully happy hydrangeas.

What accessories do you use to take an outfit from modern daytime to a gleaming night outing?

The goods: Bow handbag-Mark, Dress, Lion head necklace, and earrings-c/o Oasap, Glitter pumps-DIY, Cropped trench-Topshop, Printed scarf-Vintage, Belt-c/o Oasap (similar DIY).

*New beauty favourites: wearing LancômeStar Body Bronzer, and E.L.F. Studio HD blush in Superstar.

    This shade of pink really suits you. I'm determined to wear more pink this spring but there are so many shades around at the moment. I was tempted by the very pale blush pink but I may just try something a little bolder!

    It's funny you should ask this question as someone on my blog mentioned sequins. Sequins are a great way of making a statement that it's time for a glammed up evening.

    Spring is in the air! *sings* haha, it was actually 34 degrees this morning. We had a tease last week with warm weather and now it's chilly again. But soon… I can feel that there is warm weather in the future… science tells us so!!

    Pink is such a good color on you, aaah! That dress looks absolutely flippy and fun to twirl around in. I agree with Imogen–pink is stunning on you! Then again, you look kinda great in every color so… 😀

    A perfect outfit for leaning prettily under a cherry blossom tree! Great shade of pale raspberry that suits you so well. I too own very little pink, but when I do wear it (a jumper here, a coat there) I feel like it lifts my mood a little.
    Back to winter temperatures today though…
