Spring and Summer Special Occassions

 Hello, and thanks for stopping by my blog!

Spring and summer are full of special occasions-

 do you have any fun events to dress up for

coming up on your calendar?

Separates are a good way to go,

 especially if you will be going to events

 like weddings and graduations, 

  where you will probably be seeing some of the same people

As much as I love a memorable dress,

I don't want to show up in the same one too often

For a spring or summer special occasion,

you don't have to break the bank and buy a whole new outfit, 

(unless you want to, of course)!

 With a little rummage through my closet,

 I came up with a dressy look

by mixing three separates that I have not worn together before,

but mix quite nicely!

The cropped white jacket is collarless

 and has a weskit style hem and open front

 I usually wear this jacket in the spring and summer,

layered over a dress to give the dress a little more polish,

and also to ward off the chill when going in and out

 of air-conditioned spaces

Today I am wearing the blazer over a natural 

cotton color crochet and sequin top

 Although sparkly, 

I have always chosen to wear this top in the past

 dressed down with more casual pieces, usually a skirt,

because I thought the top had an earthy, natural look

I usually don't think of these white tailored trousers

as part of a dressy look, either,

 but they give this outfit a bit of a dressy tuxedo vibe

in this mix

Pretty details!

The extras helped to dress this outfit up even more

Carrying my two-tone pink heart shaped handle bag 

 The most perfect accessory for a wedding, don't you think?

For jewelry I choose a 1950's vintage bracelet,

 with a double row of pink beads,

a collar necklace entirely encircled in tiny faux pearls, 

and a pair of silver tone hoop earrings with pearl detail

Around my neck is a scarf,

with the softest abstract design in rose and pink

 I am also wearing a pink top knot headband

This is a lot of accessories for me!

Finally, I chose these natural tan sling backs

 with ivory trim, a cute side bow and low heels

 

It must be love! 💞

Hope you have some lovely

 spring and summer events to attend

 and are ready with just the right outfit

 Have a great week!
