Classic Silhouettes, Unexpected Details

These collages came together for several reasons. The first look is very me, and the cute olive green and white gingham pants were waiting for me when I got home from New York. I loved them because they reminded me of a picture I saw of Audrey Hepburn riding a bicycle with gingham pants, a white sleeveless blouse, white shoes, and a dog. The outfit looked so classic and summery and would work in the city, at the beach, or anywhere in between. When creating this look, I added a sun hat, an on-trend bandana bag, and raffia platform sandals... which would be very impractical on a bicycle (these would be better) but also look great with the outfit! The beaded necklace adds a contrasting pop of color and I love the turquoise/olive green color combo.

I've had so many people ask about wedding guest looks, so the second outfit is an unexpected idea that will turn heads. Chocolate brown is evidently trending as a wedding guest color for spring and summer, and I think it's oh so chic... I love it in the form of a satin midi dress styled with a blue floral beaded bag that has a bit of a boho feel. The fabulous beaded bag makes a bold statement with the dress, but it would also dress up a pair of jeans with a white button-up. Fun tassel earrings and a classic shoe complete the look.

The third collage features a romantic maxi white dress that stands on its own. I could have gone the safe route with accessories, but instead opted for a bold clutch in pink and orange, a gold metallic stiletto, and gorgeous pearl earrings. I can also see this dress styled with neutral accessories... it would be perfect for a luncheon, a fancy dinner, or any dressier event (other than a wedding) for spring and summer. It's a beautiful piece that will stay in your closet for years to come! Keep scrolling for all the details!
