Pink and Mint


Forever 21 polka dot sweater // Romwe sheer dot shirt (sold out but available in navy) thanks to Ocrun // Mint skirt c/o Rire // Givenchy pearl bracelet from giveaway // xoxo watch (Macy's) // Pierre Dumas snakeskin heels

With the huge pastel trend in spring, I couldn't believe how lacking I was in mint pieces! Thank goodness I found this skirt at Rire. It's a gorgeous shade of mint, and I love the airy feel! At first I was afraid that mint might only be good for the warmer months, but this skirt also looks great for fall/winter when paired with tights and a moto jacket. :) Also, I love mixing large polka dot prints with smaller ones. And how cute are the bows on the back of the sweater! This sweater was actually from the Forever 21 kids section. I really like getting clothes from kid sections because it's more affordable and so, so cute! 

xoxo, Elly

    I agree when it comes to children's clothes and I tend to do the same thing sometimes :P
    anyway, I love the layering of this outfit and the double polka dots make such a brilliant idea!

    Wow, you have some crazy awesome styling skills! I love everything about this, from the two types of polka dots, to the mint color in your skirt, to the two whimsical bows in the back! Not to mention you paired it with snake print heels? Yes, this is perfection for sure.

    Love the textural difference of your sweater and chiffon skirt, supah cute! In addition I can't believe that sweater is from the kid's section, it really adds just the right amount of polka dots to the outfit :) and of course those snakeskin heels are amazing!
