Hi everyone! I wore this dress in Vegas, but with different shoes. However, I got these in the mail the other day from Sole Society, so naturally I had to try them on with a few different things. Sole Society is a great website for any shoe lover! All items are reasonably priced, and these particular ones are super comfy which is always a bonus. Only drawback being they don't ship to Canada. However, us Canadian's can visit Nordstrom's where they have a great collection of Sole Society items!

Patterned Pants, 3 Ways

I found these pants at Forever 21 a couple weeks ago, and immediately fell in love. Sometimes I have a hard time styling patterned pants because you can be limited to what you are able to pair them with. However when I saw these, outfit ideas just started flooding my brain.

I've been loving yellow as of late. Pale, neon. You name it. The color yellow in general just puts me in a good mood. Alot of people think yellow is hard to wear, but it really isn't. I always pair cool toned yellows with silver jewelry, and warm toned yellows with gold. And then I add in color where possible. Remember the color wheel? As for which shade of yellow to choose, I go by these rules based on skin tone:

Pale Skin: Dark mustard yellows or pale yellows. Try to avoid neon or primary yellow as it can make you look even paler.

Medium/Olive Skin: Neon, bright, or primary yellows look best on tanned skin. You can also go for pale yellow as it won't wash you out.

Dark Skin: Gold yellows look best again dark skin as it will bring out the gold tones. Dark skinned gals actually have it the best when it comes to yellow, because they can pretty much wear any shade they want! 

What yellow pieces do you own/love? What are your favorite shades to wear? Do you agree with my rules above or can you prove me wrong? Let me know!

Somewhere Over The Rainbow

I love mixing unexpected colors together with my outfits, and I equally love looking at how other people do the same. I always find inspiration for color mixing via pinterest, and/or my favorite bloggers. But where do our favorite fashion bloggers come up with these eye catching combinations? Have you heard of the color wheel? The color wheel is a great wardrobe tool, and I came across this one below on Lauren Conrad's blog! Mixing colors when dressing can be tricky, however if you use these basic color schemes you can achieve a 'best dressed' look every time. There are three different color schemes to use when mixing colors: analogous, complementary, and monochrome. The analogous color scheme means to mix colors that are side by side on the color wheel. Complementary means to mix colors that are across from each other, and a monochromatic color scheme means to mix colors that are all within the same color family. Tip: When using a monochromatic color palette, mix in a neutral to help break up the ensemble. You can also play around with mixing colors that form an 'X' or 'T' on the wheel, or colors that form 90 degree angles to one another. Since brown, white, grey and black are neutrals you can mix them with virtually anything. Below I have examples of each color scheme, as well as some of my own personal favorite color combinations and the bloggers that wear them! If your interested in looking at a more interactive color wheel I highly recommend this one here!
