At First Blush.

By: Jen Shoop

I’ve been featuring lots of reds, hot pinks, deep blues, and yellows — sort of an homage to funfetti that fits in with this season’s emphasis on sassy fiesta gear, but there’s another part of me that loves the ultra-feminine blush-white-cream-pastel side of the house and I’m sorta split between the two of ’em.  Take this Tory Burch shirt dress ($395) as an example.  Woah.  Timeless, sweet, pulled-together in a Grace Kelly kind of way.

Other pieces to consider:

+This Zimmermann top ($475) is beyond.

+The perfect blush lace-up espadrille (Loeffler Randall, $295).

+Rose oil ($68).

+Personalized bracelet (105 euros — so flipping chic).

+Monogrammed stationery ($65 for set of 25).

I’m now realizing a lot of these pieces would make elegant mother’s day gifts as well…

+Illesteva shades ($177).

+These candles make the best gift ($45) — a girlfriend of mine gifted me one as a hostess gift and they smell incredible.

+Pink shegreen tray (Aerin, $295).

+Zimmermann top (on sale for $233).

+Ivory travel brush ($60 — I purchased one of these and carry it with me everywhere.  Such a lifesaver for those of us living in the windy city and on the go-go-go all the time.)

+D. Porthault boudoir pillow ($250 — get the look for less with one of these beautiful Biscuit prints).

+Scalloped espadrilles (Chloe, $400).
