Color Crush: Shades of Green

March 17, 2021 by Rachel McCarthy

Happy Wednesday, friends! It has been awhile since I shared a Wednesday Wishes post and what better way to bring the series back than with a color crush post! Ironically, I am sharing a shades of green color crush post on St. Patrick’s Day; however, these shades of green have been some of my favorite recently. Here are my finds for this spring’s color crush: shades of green.

Color Crush: Shades of Green

Green is always a great color for spring — there is something so new and fresh about the shade. Over the past few weeks, I have really been gravitating towards all different shades of green. It all started with this green and white stripe shirt. I fell in love with the color, ordered it, and I’m actually wearing it today! The shirt is designed to be a little oversized, so I ordered my usual size. Also available in other colors if green isn’t your thing!

A few other pieces to highlight from this set: I have been missing my dress collection — I feel like I haven’t worn a dress since I was in my office over a year ago! I love this tiered maxi dress. It would be perfect for a bridal or baby shower, wedding, or even Easter. And this fit and flare dress just screams vacation! It would be so darling styled with a cute pair of sandals.

As for accessories, you can never go wrong with a headband in my opinion! I love the pearl details on this headband. I also love these fun artichoke statement earrings — the shades of green are bright and fresh and so perfect for this post!

I’ve included a few other green pieces below that I wasn’t able to fit in the collage, so be sure to scroll through!

Thanks for stopping by! Have a great rest of the week and Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

2019 Pantone Color of the Year: Coral

February 6, 2019 by Rachel McCarthy

Each year, I am always anxious to see what color rises to Pantone’s Color of the Year. And this week’s Wednesday Wishes is all about 2019’s color: coral. I share these color inspiration post each year and in the past, it’s been tough to find clothing in that color. Ironic since this color should be everywhere. Well, that was not the case with coral this year! Coral is everywhere and I have to say, I’m pretty excited about it. Here is some coral outfit inspiration:

In the spirit of Punxsutawney Phil’s early spring prediction, today I am sharing four easy to recreate early spring outfits. These are four of my favorite outfits from last spring. All four looks are easy to recreate with pieces in your closet (or shop similar pieces in this post!). And I love the more neutral color palette in these outfits. It’s perfect for all of spring! Without further ado, here are four outfits to recreate this spring:

Springing into Yellow

March 28, 2018 by Rachel McCarthy

There is nothing like yellow in the springtime. Yellow is one color that seems to be present in spring pieces year after year, regardless of trends. However, this year more than ever, yellow can be found just about anywhere. Purple may be the color of the year, but this bright and cheerful shade is definitely giving purple a run for it’s money. Here is some spring yellow outfit inspiration for today’s Wednesday Wishes…

My Favorite Scents for Spring

March 8, 2018 by Rachel McCarthy

Besides spring fashion, one of the things I look forward to most about the new season are fresh scents. I love anything with a rose scent and although I use rose-scented products year round, it becomes more acceptable in the spring. It’s hard to beat the smell of fresh flowers, especially roses in my case. Fresh flowers are the quintessential spring scent and an indication that the warmer temperatures are near. With the start of March last week, I am completely on the fresh spring scents train. Today, I am highlighting two of my favorite fragrances for spring along with two rose-scented beauty products I have been using daily (regardless of the season).

Each of these staple spring pieces can be styled several ways allowing you to create multiple spring outfits giving you the most bang for your buck.
