spring color trend - BLUSH

 photo blush_zpsd02b156a.jpg

Call it pale pink, blush, or nude this is a hue you want to add to your wardrobe this season.   What I love most about this color is it's trans-seasonal (I may have just made up that word...).  I love that so much of spring's trends can really be worn not only through summer but into fall, and pieces can even be relevant through the winter months as well.  This my friends, is one of them! 
We're all chomping at the bit to get into our spring clothes and colors even if we do have to layer them on to keep warm until the weather cooperates.   
A piece such as a scarf or bucket bag is the perfect transitional accessory to brighten up your winter clothes and bring them into the now.  The moto jacket is a great piece over a bold maxi dress, who will know that until it's warm enough you have leggings on underneath!  I love adding subtle touches of a color with a sandal, earrings or sunnies.  

What do you think, will you be adding this color to your repertoire this season?

sugar and spice






jacket - target (similar) | dress - h&m purchased through IG store (similar) | tights - target | boots - shoemint (similar similar)

You may have seen on Instagram that I've gone and chopped off my locks.  These pictures were taken about an hour prior to that happening.   Don't worry you'll see the new do in due time! (wink)
I purchased this gorgeous dress from an IG bud (@memoirofapreppymomscloset) thinking I could wear it in several different ways and I plan to!  I cannot wait to get my hands on cobalt heels so I can pair them with this for spring and summer.   I toughened it up with the moto and OTK boots.  
OTK boots have been a tough style for me to nail this season.  I feel too risqué pairing them with tight denim and a top and feel they are much more chic looking with dresses and skirts.  Makes you wonder if you're too "OLD" for a trend.   
Do you guys ever think that?   I know a lot of other bloggers are in their early twenties.  Being 30 I often have to ask myself if a trend works in my life before I pull the trigger. 

Linking up for Mix It Monday 
I've styled these boots here and here and this jacket here
