Floral Print

Yesterday was the first official day of Spring.  It sure didn't feel like Spring to me.  I was in Minneapolis where the temperature was a high of 21 degrees.  Yikes.  While I'm waiting for the weather to warm up (even back home in Atlanta), I'm dreaming of Spring appropriate clothing.  Floral print just screams "Springtime"!  You can find this print everywhere right now; anything from shoes, to pants, to accessories.  Make a bold statement with floral pants paired with a solid top, or add a subtle accent to your outfit with a clutch or a pair of pumps.  I've listed a few of my favorite floral pieces below.

Crossbody Bags

Anyone who knows me, knows I love a BIG bag.  The bigger the better.  I'm always the one that has an umbrella, band aid  nail file, etc.  I'm always prepared.  I love the look of a big bag (plus it makes you look skinny!).  However, between carrying a diaper bag, a child and who knows what else, a large purse can sometimes be a hassle.  I guess I don't really need to bring my large Louie to the park, right?  A small crossbody bag is my solution.  They're everywhere lately.  They're small, but can still fit the necessities, they won't fall off my shoulder while I'm carrying 10,000 other things, and best of all, I love the bright spring colors that are out now.  I just need to decide which one to buy!

Leopard

Maybe I've been watching too much reality TV surrounding Jersey lately (Snooki and JWoww, Jerseylicious, etc.  I know, judge away) but I'm loving leopard!  You don't need to go overboard with head to toe leopard, but an accent or statement piece looks great.  I've listed a few of my favorite finds below.  Enjoy!

Make a Plan

As much as technology has taken over my everyday life, I'm still old school when it comes to my planner.  I love writing things down instead of plugging my appointments into my calendar on my phone.  A planner doesn't have to be boring and business like.  They come in all sizes and colors.  I love ones that are compact to fit in my purse, have multiple room for each day to write appointments/to-do lists, and of course, they need to be stylish.  There's so many fun patterns out there to reflect your own personal style.  See below for some of my favorite picks.

Go For Gold

Maybe it's because I've been watching the Olympics lately, but I find myself leaning more and more towards gold EVERYTHING lately.  I love the glitter, shine, and all that comes with the color of gold.  Check out some great ways to add a bit of gold into your style.

Fun Cosmetic Bags

While shopping the other day, I came across the cutest black and white chevron printed cosmetic bag at J.Crew (see below).  I have no problem constantly buying makeup, but I never splurge on a new cosmetic bag.  Sure, I have tons in my closet from all the "freebies" from cosmetic brands, but I've carried the same one in my purse for years.  I guess I've never changed it because its small enough to fit in my purse, but big enough to hold all of my make up essentials that I use throughout the day.  When I got home, I started thinking that my bag is dull and I "NEED" a cute one.  There's so many great ones out there!  See below for some of my favorites.

I love bracelets, bangles, and big watches.  Thus, I love the current arm candy trend.  I'm sure you've seen multiple pictures around Pinterest of all the different variations of the arm candy trend.  Here are a few of my favorites, as well as some of my favorite finds to incorporate this trend into your everyday style.
