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).
+How stunning is this Alexis dress (on sale for $659, plus 30% off!)?
+Especially with these Lele Sadoughi earrings ($198)?
+Julia B. cocktail napkins ($200 — you can also get ’em monogrammed!);
+Bespoke Anya Hindmarch jewelry roll (150 GBP);
+Lace top (Alice McCall, $190);
+Initial earrings ($15 each);
+Monogrammable wallet (Cuyana, $125);
+This highlighting concealer is supposed to be FAB ($25);
+Lace dress ($69).
