Rose Coral

Hello! Thanks for stopping by my blog, and happy first day of spring!

I love this uplifting rose coral color,

 it's a great shade to lighten up with at the end of a long, cold winter

The temperatures have not quite warmed up enough to the warrant

switching out my winter clothes to spring,

but these looks will help me bridge the gap

My first outfit is a remix of a sweet cardigan I wore

earlier this winter in a post about winter knits

For this wear, I chose a mid-wash denim skirt to go with it 

 Also wearing my 60's vintage brass butterfly buckle belt

Carrying my pleated fabric handle bag it a darker shade

of this yummy pinkish orange hue

Interestingly, Rose Coral is in the Pantone color palette for this spring season

from fashion week in London, but not in New York

I have noticed that most of the palette is usually quite similar but not the same

for these two show locations  

Also wearing my 60's vintage brass butterfly buckle belt

I chose delicate gold tone jewelry for this outfit 

My birds on a branch necklace, and a two tone wrap bracelet

For any of you with hard to fit small wrists, 

I have good luck with some of the Lucky Brand styles

Also, small hoop earrings and vintage enamel butterfly decorative hair pins

 🦋  

Butterflies are everywhere for the coming season

with the popularity of all things Y2K    

Sparkly metallic perforated stacked heel slides

to finish the outfit

I am wearing these shoes a lot more now than when I first purchased them

I love them, but it's taken me a while to realize just how versatile they are! 

 

Next another outfit using this lovely, flattering rose coral color

This time, on a long sleeve blouse with ruffled cuffs

Carrying the same deep rose coral bag as in the first outfit

To accessorize, I chose a favorite long rectangular vintage silk chiffon scarf

The print is not very well shown in this picture,

I'll have to show it laying flat another time, as it is very beautiful!

It is a peach and pale blue print in a scene with cranes in their environment 

Gold tone 3-D spiral flower/star shaped earrings are my only jewelry 

Finishing the outfit with asymmetrical strap

reptile embossed heels

Here is an outfit with a jacket in a much brighter shade of coral from spring, 2019

I noticed I am still buying the same coral color carnations at to market today 

as I was 3 years ago-I really do love the color! 

First spring flowers to bloom in my garden-Crocuses 

Hope everyone enjoys the first week of spring!
