east vs west [coast] style. pastels.

when we think of spring trends, pastels always top the list and are most often represented by pink, blue, yellow, and green. i thought i'd have to do some convincing with my choice of peach, but check out the west coasters...all peach, haha! and i love that the east coasters are rocking pinks and blues, because you can never go wrong with the classics. how will you be wearing pastels this spring? what color will you be rocking?

don't forget to visit the girls.

east

west

Ashley / Golden Divine / California
Becks / oomph. / Hawaii


i never really thought of peach as a pastel, but i have been loving it so much lately...on my lips, on my cheeks, and in my clothing choices. this dress combines two of my current favorites...peach and tropical prints. the busy print works perfectly for the simple shape of this dress and reminds me of sand and beaches. and since the dress and bag are light-colored neutrals, i wore these super cute black sandals for
a bit of contrast.
