Latest Look: Ombre.

Guys, I totally ripped off the styling in J. Crew’s latest catalog.  IT IS SO GOOD.  The shades of pink?  Mixed in with khaki?  (P.S. — I have some serious thoughts on khaki.)  I’m not embarrassed to say that I have totally claimed these looks as my own.

I was particularly drawn to the first look and immediately bought a Tippi sweater (I got mine in the lighter “fresh bouquet” color) and these bow-front shorts.  (I also loveee this pair in the liberty print.)  I am daydreaming about wearing it with this pink lucite ark bag ($300) — it’s SUCH a cool take on the wood version of the bag that everyone and her mom is wearing right now.

I also snagged a pair of these “dandelion” earrings in the white with my order.  I had a helluva time picking a color (they are all SO good!), but white is (duh) super versatile and fresh.

But, other pink pieces I’m loving to continue in this ombre/monochrome lane (you can also shop these and other finds visually via the slider below):

+This bow-sleeved top ($98).

+This eyelet dress ($325).  Or this one ($89)!!!

+This OTS bell-sleeved beauty ($58).

+Statement dress ($298).  This one reminds me of the detailing/cut-outs in dia de los meurtos decorations.

+Cute embellished sandals ($110).  They look a lot like Aquazzuras, but way cheaper!

These and Other Pink Picks for Spring…

 

P.S. — For an upcoming trip, I am ordering a few sets of these.  I don’t know what it is about being a new mom (actually…maybe I do), but I can’t help but stress about being organized and love the idea of keeping all our items compartmentalized.  I already have a set of these, which I LOVE.  They store SO much and I typically use them for dirty laundry.
