Hmmm, well these photos clearly turned out overexposed with sunlight…but I decided to roll with it. Having finally been able to dig out clothes from my move, I was just happy to be able to put together an outfit and blog! When life gives you too much sunlight in your photos…enjoy it!

Fashion Huntress tips:
1) I put some of my favorite pieces together for this look. As you can see below, each of these pieces have been featured as separate looks. Each look is definitely very different, but somehow all the pieces came together in the above look! Black and white generally reads as a neutral, so any other colors work well with a black and white piece. Above, I picked coral and lavender as my accent colors.
2) This is the time of year that gets challenging to figure out how to style winter or spring clothing. I generally opt for bright colors with some darker neutral to keep the look from seeming overly summery. …not to mention that it’s very sunny…but still quite cold! I basically refuse to wear my winter coat anymore, so layering is essential!
Anyone else have spring/winter transition style tips? Thanks so much for stopping by, readers! I appreciate it so very much!
Lovely look! I really adore your skirt and your heels!
And I know what you mean. This time is very challenging when it comes to “What should I wear today” 🙂 I also don’t know what to wear. In the morning you need a jacket and a scarf, in the afternoon you just need a lovely shirt our blouse and in the evening a jacket is enough. Hard times 😉
love your bag & the colours of your whole outfit! and i actually like these kinds of pics where it’s not oh-so-perfect, kind of like lomo. 😉 keep it up & happy Easter to you!
Oh well, over-exposed beats under-exposed any day. You look fabulous as usual.

My winter/spring style transition tip would be…colorful opaque tights with dresses! Happy spring!
