Trend Watch: Color Blocking

As most of you know, color blocking is a major trend right now. I especially love color blocking using similar colors or tones. For example, pink and red or blue and purple. I think it looks bright and fun but stylish at the same time. Below is one of my favorite examples of color blocking. She looks so natural and effortlessly styled yet polished at the same time. 



Here are some great pieces that can easily be used to recreate this gorgeous look.

Pippa Middleton: Polished Sophisitcation




Pippa Middleton has instantly become well known for her great style. She always seems to look so polished and effortlessly put together. Pippa tends to gravitate toward skirts and dresses with basic and neutral colors for a flattering and classic look. Also, I always pay attention to her purse; she is always carrying a gorgeous bag wherever she goes. My favorite of them is the Modalu bag now known as the "Pippa" purse. Lastly, her shoes are always kept simple to complete the outfit. Below is a classic, polished look that reflects Pippa's style:
