I Dream In Colors
When I saw this skirt at H&M, I tried to resist but the vibrancy of the fuchsia color and interesting fanned-out pleats made of a random sporty material kept calling me back. Yup, I have no self control. I love the way the pleats hold its shape and the length is so ladylike. Plus it’s the perfect mate to my teal blouse (last worn here)…So here it is, hung in my room next to the many colors that are dominating my closet these days.

Opposites may not always attract, but when it comes to color-blocking, colors on the opposite side of the spectrum can create a beautiful unity. Mixing colors is nothing new but it’s one of my favorite trend that I’ll never get tired off and will rock until I am gray and wrinkled.
What about you, are you tired of this trend yet?
Love these colours as well! Is this skirt from this current season? Those glasses and nailpolish rock!

KT! This is AMAZING! I love the colors together. They’re so bold and daring, and the nude accessories are perfect. I think I’m in love with your wardrobe! It’s so fun!! I need to be your neighbour!
I am totally not tiring of the colour-blocking trend and the teal with fuchsia is perfect! I adore this combination and I think I’m going to have to run out to H&M tonight and track down this skirt! I’ve been wanting something that’s this colour, be it shoes, a skirt or top, and this fits the bill. Thanks for your last comment on my blog as well, I’m so flattered that I remind you of Anh, that’s a huge compliment!

I keep looking at that bag online and contemplating purchasing it. You make it look goooood!

Never! I will never be tired of color blocking. I love seeing all the unique ways that other fashion bloggers (and peeps I see in real life) color block. :) Your teal blouse and perfectly pleated fuchsia skirt are a match made in fashion heaven.
I’m super curious as to what the horrendous outcome is to mashing together you and your boy’s names. Tell me!! hahaha. And yes, the wedges are super comfy… and super affordable too, like $20 or something. If you do decide to get them, remember to use “SHARON2” at checkout for a 20 savings. :)
Hope your hump day is going fabulously, love.
xx Love & Aloha

Glad to see I’m not the only one that broke our shopping ban. Haha!
But for this skirt, I would have broken the ban, too. It is absolutely gorgeous! I love the length and the color. I think this would be office friendly, which is something I need because most of my skirts are considered too short for work. Lol. I love the color that you paired it up with!
And no, I will never get tired of color blocking. I love colors, so I think I’m going to be with you, gray & wrinkled, still rocking my colored jeans. Haha! :)
love the skirt! such a great pop of color!
I saw the skirt in store but didn’t get it because I didn’t know what to wear with the skirt. I love how your paired the skirt with a bright top. Color blocking is one of the trend I have yet to try.
Wow love that bag and your whole entire outfit is so pretty! I love that you play with colors (they look great on you) and love your versatility!
This looks perfect on you! Ive always been a neutrals type of style but this is so inspiring! You pull it off perfectly!

Thanks for commenting on my blog! :)
Love those colors together! Bright & beautiful :) And I LOVE your shoes! Are they comfortable??
Hi Jess,
Yes it’s pretty comfortable after a couple wear! I have wide feet so I like to stretch the shoes out with a shoe stretcher. It does wonders!
Nope I will never get tired of this trend either! You look fab as always love! :)
