Spring Break Style Board

With Spring Break a few short weeks away, I couldn’t help but start to dream of the perfect outfit! Weather here in Florida has been pretty wonderful for quite some time, but as things begin to warm up even more, it certainly puts a smile on my face! I do remember living in Pennsylvania a few short years ago and longing for Spring Break to roll around so we could escape the terrible cold and go somewhere warm and sunny. So, whether you are going to a gorgeous beach location, or to a sunny city sightseeing, there are so many lovely pieces to choose from so be sure to enjoy picking out the perfect outfit {or two!} for your Spring Break festivities!

So, without further adieu, here is a list of my top 10 Oscars looks from this evenings arrivals:

Mix of Warm + Cool

An unexpected color combination that I am seriously loving right now is the lovely mix of warm + cool shades of peach, terra cotta, royal blue, and navy. These lovely hues are the perfect pairing for any party, event, or fashion + decor inspiration. It is so stunning yet funky, fun, and sweet at the same time, making it a perfectly lovely color palette to inspire you!

Favorite 2015 Grammy Awards Fashion

The 57th Annual Grammy Awards are on tonight! I especially love the Grammy’s red carpet because it seems the stars always take fashion risks more-so here than at other awards ceremonies.

With that being said, here’s a list of my top 10 Grammy looks from this evenings arrivals:

Lilly Pulitzer for Target

At a fabulous Four Seasons pool party in New York City last evening, the ever amazing Target just announced their new designer collaboration for spring will be with none other than Lilly Pulitzer! Known for her preppy, vibrant colored shift dresses, Lilly Pulitzer believed that “style isn’t just about what you wear, it’s about how you live.”

The line for Target will consist of 250 pieces of clothing, shoes, beach ware, accessories, beauty, and home decor. Pieces will range in price from $2 to $150, with over 200 items under $30! In addition, this will mark the first time that Target’s designer collaboration will include plus sizes.

The collection will exclusively hit Target stores as well as Target.com in the U.S. and Canada on April 19th and will feature 15 exclusive prints that were created exclusively for Target by the brand’s artists.

Target’s senior vice president for apparel and accessories, Stacia Andersen, said, “This spring, we wanted to offer our guests a collection that embraced color, print and pattern in a bold, fresh way. As we started to think about the perfect partner to collaborate with, Lilly Pulitzer was the clear choice given the brand’s inspiring heritage, authority with print and pattern and resort-chic aesthetic.”
