Truthfully, I’ll just never be a pastels-and-florals kind of gal. (Not that I have anything against either, and I often find them charming on others.) But a little color, even pink, can work its way into my comfort zone if it’s the right pink and the right piece. And if I keep everything else easy and slouchy.

Unbeknownst to us both at the time, Lisa and I purchased the same tee. (Great minds…) You can see Lisa’s peeking out from beneath her camel coat here. And I wore mine in this recent Instagram…

…though I thought the tee was too long, even with a half-tuck, and have since had it shortened. You’ll see it again soon in another outfit post.
And florals? Scarves I can do for sure. I also like a floral fragrance in spring and summer, as long as it’s not too cloying. And as long as there’s some warmth in the base notes.
The first part of April has really zoomed by, and my schedule is very full for the next few weeks. Later this week I’m traveling to Dallas for a blogger conference, then shortly after I get home from that we leave for Italy. It’s all very exciting but I still have a lot to do in preparation!
Do you like colors and patterns traditionally associated with Spring, or is your style more seasonally agnostic?
