Happy Tuesday loves! Back to the grind and that means back to some style posts not on the beach…although this outfit can in fact be worn to the beach for some fun in the sun. I spotted this monster mural will exploring Little Italy in NYC and had to snap some pics in front of it. It reminded me of this random Halloween decoration we have at my house that when you clap it begins to play ‘Monster Mash’…hence the name of this post haha 😉

Happy Tuesday Fashion Lovers! I loved this shot for ‘Flirty In Floral’ that my sister took a few weeks ago on Long Island. As you may know, I work in Manhattan but live on Long Island so sometimes my favorite photos come from great Long Island hot spots, this being one of them. My sister and I headed to Babylon Village on Easter…to her dismay the park was packed and she was trying to shoot as quick as possible (she gets camera shy ;)…but not being in front of the camera, behind haha)
I love this look because it is the ultimate spring ensemble. Nude heels, a floral top and a chic neon bag…what more can a gal ask for? <3
Shades Of Spring…
One of the many things I LOVE about the spring season is the beginning of color. The shades of spring…pastels, neons, patterns, and most importantly…pops of color! While I am one to stand out with my colorful outfit choices, not everyone is…so I’ve come up with a solution, accessorize with color without letting it take over your whole look!
Getting back to one of my favorite things about my blog, affordability, I put together some fun options that you can rock to embrace a little color this spring and the best part? Everything is under $50 😉 Your Welcome <3
Denim & Neon
Spring in my book means short skits, denim jackets, casual looks and a little neon…and this #ootd is just that. It’s the perfect ‘Casual Friday’ ensemble that is chic, easy and stylish. It’s no surprise that spring and summer are my two favorite seasons, 1) because I have an unhealthy obsession with skirts and dresses and 2) because I LOVE sandals and wedges…sorry winter but boots have just never been my thing…I like to show off my cute pedicure year round 🙂
When I put on this outfit, all I wanted to do was go for a casual stroll in the park and relax, I think I’m getting into the whole ‘laid back’ mood in preparation for my first ever trip to California next week for Lucky Fabb West! I am beyond excited to network and meet tons of fashion bloggers like myself on the West Coast while learning from the best of the best in the blogging and media industry…talk about a once in a lifetime experience!
I’m flying out on Wednesday and I am actually staying in LA with another lovely fashion blogger and also my friend Kristi of ‘Currently Crushing‘! Talk about the perfect fashion trip! While she has coordinated my entire schedule (she is keeping me busy, that’s for sure lol!) I absolutely can’t wait to simply have some fun in the sun! One of my must have’s that’ll be in my suitcase is of course, my denim jacket.
I’ve had this baby since freshman year of college and it has never let me down. Layer it over a sundress, cute tank or just about anything and it gives off that ‘chill’ vibe while still looking chic and well put together. Another essential I’ll be bringing to Cali is the perfect neon bag…nothing stands out on Rodeo Drive like a lime green purse right? 😉 I’m hoping to get spotted by TMZ, Harvey call me haha!

Neat In Neon
It may not feel like spring just yet, but why not welcome it with open arms with some accessories that are sure to brighten up any outfit? I’m talking about sporting a neon handbag! Yes, I know what your thinking…isn’t that a summer thing or even a beach or vacation thing? Umm no! Why wouldn’t you want to stop traffic with a killer handbag? I sure like to 😉
While shooting outfits this weekend, I had a slight neon obsession. I scored a Steve Madden satchel for $30 at TJ Maxx and fell in love! I also had to share a little blast from the past…my neon yellow Cambridge Satchel from Bloomingdales. I got this bag 3 years ago from my mom because I explained to her, a bright yellow bag is a fashion must, duh! She naturally thought I was crazy but surprised me with it anyway…now while I do love this bag, the buckles on the front drive me a little crazy since I like easy access to everything in my purse, but the bag is great for a date night or girls night out when your carrying some lipgloss, keys, phone and a wallet!
Personally, I love myself a ‘Pop Of Color‘ as my style crush Brad Goreski always says…no matter what time of year it is, neon, done tastefully is always a style ‘Do’!
So what are you waiting for? Brighten up your winter into spring wardrobe with a neon handbag, it can only make you stand out that much more 😉
