The boundaries of coloured jeans.

Style bloggers are known for pushing themselves past their style-comfort-zones and trying new things. To me, reading style blogs is a constant source of inspiration and new ideas.
I love it.

The other day, I was talking to someone about coloured jeans. They were telling me how hard they are to style.  I found myself telling them, "They're practically a neutral! You can pair them with anything." And then I felt a bit like Stacy London...

It's likely that blogging is the only reason I said that. Without blogging, I'd probably be terrified of so much colour, all over my body, at the same time. Now? I'm just used to it.

Winter knits in Spring.

Sweater: Forever 21; Pants: American Eagle; Shoes: Aldo; Sunnies: Dynamite

I was on Twitter and someone asked if it was possible to transition winter knits into spring. My thought? Of course! I've stocked up on knits this winter, and although I don't want more snow, I'm not ready to give them up yet. They're perfect for those warm days with a cool breeze.

So how do I work this transition item? I pair it with spring-y pieces of course! Boyfriend or distressed jeans are great to keep the outfit casual. I wore oxfords here, but you could throw in a pair of heels of you want to spice things up a bit. Lastly, put on your fav sunnies and you're good to go. I also rolled up the sleeves on the knit, mostly because I like to cuff everything I wear (see jeans also).

Will you be transitioning your knits into spring?

Quote of the day.

I think this is one of the biggest lessons to learn in your 20s, and probably even into your 30s. Heck, maybe for life. Once you reach adult-hood, everyone's path changes. Life goes by at different speeds, and there are new opportunities popping up everywhere for everyone. You may feel that your life is changing differently than everyone else's around you, and you start to feel alone.

But it's not a bad thing. Not at all. In fact, it's perfectly normal.

So smile for the opportunities you get, and be happy that you're living a life that is your own. You are your own person now - you make your own choices, you make your own life.

Initial thought: Charlie! What are you doing ruining my photo shoot!

Moment of love and affection.

Instagram. My bff...

Good hair day ruined by the gym. // How I protect my eyes from the sun. Contacts are overrated. 

Love weekend breakfasts. // Roll up the rim time just makes me sad. I've played 6 times and won once. I guess that is the odds...

Getting packages makes me excited. // New eShakti dress

Fur, knits and snow.

After every snowfall, I pray that it's the end of winter.

But then I realize how pretty snow is in my photos.

And for a second, I'm not sure I want it gone yet.

But then I remember what it feels like to be on a beach.

And I pray for the snow to end again.

Dress dilemma.

Dress: c/o eShakti

Ahh dresses. I don't wear them often enough. Why? I don't think they've very versatile.

But this dress... This dress is special. It comes from eShakti's new spring collection, which is totally rockin' btw. But because it isn't spring yet, and I couldn't wait any longer to show you, I've styled it with snowflakes in mind. Guess what that means? A dress that transitions through seasons. What more is there to love? Plus these buttons are super awesome.

Probably what I'm most pleasantly surprised with is the fit. eShakti offers sizes from 0-36W, and allows customization of their garments. You can add/remove pockets and other embellishments (I kept the pockets, they're fun). But they have a great size scale because my dress fits me like a glove. I requested my hem-line above the knee, and they were able to do it while keeping the dress modest enough for the workplace.

What do you think about dresses? How do you keep them versatile?

This just in: Lookin' to score yourself a great eShakti dress? Get 20% off when you use code: KELLYBLGGE until next Sunday, Mar 10! I've also been eyeing up this great polka dotted pencil skirt...
