Pastels are no longer worn only on Easter Sunday. This delicate, soft, dreamy color palate is now used for every type of occasion. It might seem a little too delicate for some tastes at first but there is a way to incorporate pastels in almost everyone's wardrobe. Literally every article of clothing could not be worn in a solid pastel color. If you want to dive in and play with this trend go strong with a pastel denim and pair it with a complimentary pastel top perhaps with a pattern or color blocking. If you want to ease your way in maybe try it with accessories like a pastel purse or necklace. If your somewhere in the middle try a pastel cardigan or blazer and pair it with a metallic necklace!! Ooo that idea just made me want to go get a blazer, haha!! Any pastel item will instantly make your outfit current, and romantic! I found this website that has some great help on how to wear pastels in more detail.

The dress that I am wearing I picked up at a vintage store in Montreal a little over 4 years ago. I was going to wear it on its own but I felt like I looked a little too much like a ballerina. So I chose this sheer button up shirt from Top Shop to break up the color and make it a little more sophisticated and a little less innocent. I chose this skinny belt that I stole from my mom, thanks mom ;), to tie in my sandals from target, and to add a waist line without a large distraction. This look could easily move for day to night by just adding a heel!!!
