Sally – “I am really into color lately.”
Me- “Me too. It is a new development but I can’t get enough of it.”
Sally- “That is so not like you.”
Me- “Tell me about it.”
This conversation happened yesterday between Sally and myself while shopping at the most amazing Dallas boutique, Canary. You all know I am a girl of basic neutrals but lately I am all about a good color. It might be that every time I wear it I get showered with compliments from the hubby who is really tired of seeing black or that I am super pale and feel like a color makes me look tanner. Whatever it is, I am loving color. Prints are always a little trendy to me so I try to stay away from them but I couldn’t resist a good floral. I do think this spring it is all about feminine pieces. If you are like me and have a closet full of neutrals then picking up a spring dress (be it floral, lace, pastel, or so on) should be on your list of ‘things to do.’ If you are scared to wear the all over floral by itself, throw on a solid colored blazer (like I did above) or get one like this Parker dress with a solid paneling throughout the dress to break up the pattern. It is a more subtle approach to the all over floral and helps stay within your comfort zone.

Are the heels comfortable? I love them!!
Hey Alyssa! Thanks so much! To be honest I haven’t walked around in them much. I have worn them to a few little dinners and they were surprisingly comfortable but I haven’t had to stand in them for very long. I was a bit nervous they would be impossible to walk in (i have a bad ankle) and they were way easier than I expected! 🙂
I hope this helps! Sorry I couldn’t tell you more! xoxox
Thanks!! That still helps 🙂 I want to order them but saw the heel height and got nervous too! I probably wouldn’t wear them for too long, so they don’t sound too bad!
Loving the heels and that blazer!
