crayon tribe



Thrifted tee, thrifted 80s bag, F21 oxfords & necklace, vintage scarf, DIY ring, DIY shorts   

Pink/coral/salmon + mint have become my favorite colors of spring. I love pairing them together because it creates a fun and youthful look that just screams SPRING! I've had these pink jeans for a few years, and as pants they were almost too much...even for a color loving gal like me. Recently I decided to turn them into shorts. Since it's getting warmer, I'm coming up with new accessories to replace my beloved wool hats. I'm finally pulling out my collection of scarves and putting them to good use. I wore this one Steven Tyler style, although you can't see in the pictures. I haven't tried the turband look yet, but some of you adorable bloggers are pulling them off so well that I'm tempted to give it a try! 

What are your favorite spring color combinations? Inspire me :) 

Happy Tuesday everybody!

    I like this pop of color! Gosh I envy you for being able to wear shorts. This is so cute, the prints and designs are all different and yet they subtly match and tie the outfit together very cutely! http://thearcenciel.blogspot.com/

    I'm so incredibly predictable, because I am in love with combinations of neutrals. White + warm taupes are never going to get old. Though in general, I've been loving that salmony coral color that's everywhere. Love your headband scarf :)

    I love the spring colors! And I agree-- so jealous that you get to wear shorts! I'm dying to go out without a coat & tights on.

    Anyway, great outfit! So fun and casual. You look lovely!

    these are adorable as shorts. Sometimes, if things get too bright, I have to cut off some of the brightness! Brilliant look and idea! ~Serene
