Say to self three times. Repeat. I’m so ready for spring and willing it so with bright bright bright colors. If you live in the D.C. area and happened picked up the latest issue of the Washingtonian Magazine, you know this is my favorite spring trend!! And having fun with brights for spring can be done in so many ways. As I mentioned the other day, bright print pants are so much fun to experiment with, but I also love color blocking with bright tones like pink + orange and cobalt + yellow. But for this look I went in a different direction. I mean… I obviously I had to accommodate the skirt. It deserved to be the star.

You may remember that I set a goal to start doing outfit posts in 2013. Well.. I’d like to thank T.J.Maxx for selecting me to be one of their Spring Style Scouts, as it’s finally forcing me to do so! Seriously, absent of this assignment I’m not sure when, if ever, I would have mustered up the courage. I’m soooo much more comfortable on the other side of the lens, guys!! But this is a good thing, and I’m really excited/nervous/terrified/thrilled that I’m finally doing it!! Plus, it doesn’t hurt that I have some amazing inspiration. If you’ve been following my instagram, you know I’ve scored some amazing finds at my local T.J.Maxx stores! And I was a T.J.Maxx rookie, so this was seriously a whole new world for me! So, without further adieu, here’s my first look for spring!!!: Lady-like pastels.

I’m super excited about today’s post with Target! The focus today is on sheer fabrics, which is one of my favorite spring trends, as it really does embody everything I love about spring fashion. It’s light and airy with the perfect balance of innocence and sex-appeal, don’t you think? One of my favorite go-to looks this spring will definitely be a light sheer blouse with some easy denim shorts and some fun accessories. Perfect summer uniform. But since sheer fabrics do tend to be so light though, I try to follow a few rules when wearing a sheer piece:
1) Be careful when layering. The fabric is obviously too light to layer underneath using certain fabrics–you’ll end up with war-of-the-fabric tugging all day–not fun. The coverage you choose to wear under sheer fabric, if any other than a chic and sexy bra, should be skin tight and sprayed with a little static guard.
2) Be careful when choosing your necklaces! I ruined a mesh-panel top once in my attempt to get ambitious with a statement necklace. It was a sad day.
Here’s a few of my favorite sheer+ denim looks from Target. Dying over some of these pieces! Like I said, dan.ger.ous.
It’s Time for Springtime.

Talk about a maj girl crush.

Here’s some of my favorite Miranda Kerr eye candy + some of her must-have pieces.

It’s no secret that I’m a loser of a blogger in the way of outfit shots–something I’m trying to remedy but, hi, it’s scary.

On repeat: My Tory Burch Reva flats and my Sam Edelman Gigi sandals! (Guess it’s also no secret that on most days, I’m on foot!) The bleached cutoffs in the first pic below have become my summer favorite!!! You can see the DIY here. Hope you all are making your Monday amazing!!!

If you follow me on instagram, you know I’ve been so so in love with my white blazer (two, of many, pics below!!). It’s a little silly how often I wear it but it just goes so well with everything and adds the perfect touch of summer to any outfit!! If you haven’t yet taken the leap and gotten one, I couldn’t recommend a more perfect staple to add to your wardrobe for the rest of the season. It looks so perfectly adorable with a sun dress or a maxi skirt but also looks fun and spunky with cut off denim shorts and something studded. It’s officially my have closet staple!
