Pastel Party

Pastel Party

This is definitely the type of party I have no shame inviting myself to. I have been loving all of the pastel colors I've been seeing lately. It's perfect for me, because I've always been a little afraid of too much color. But little hints here and there with items like these? That, I can do. Here's a fun story - I bought some mint colored jeans recently. First time I washed them, the color bled somehow and now they're all splotchy in places. Sweet. Luckily, I didn't pay a lot for them, but still. Cut a girl some slack, huh? Another fun story - I bought that swimsuit up there in the corner from J.Crew about a month ago. Thought it was a great idea...until it came and I tried it on. No dice. The bottoms didn't fit. And the kicker? By that point, they were sold out of the size I needed in that color. Having really good luck with these pastels so far. Enough about that though, because I really do love these items. Can we talk about the purse? I have a sneaking suspicion that this or another Rebecca Minkoff bag could be my next splurge. This could have to do with the fact that I look at them almost daily online. Of course, if I did buy one, I'd probably end up being really practical and get a classic color like black or brown, but I don't see that as being much of a negative. I'll just spice up outfits with a few less expensive pastel accessories. Like how I'm talking like I'm going to buy it tomorrow? Fun game, right? We'll see.
