Good Morning readers, we’ve officially made it to Spring! However, I realize that we can’t go immediatly from jeans, heavy sweaters and boots to mini skirts and cropped tops. It takes time before we’re ready to show off our bare legs and arms. This is what we call the transitional period! I know I’ve been parading around in swimwear and coverups for the past few weeks, but that’s because I wanted to show you what fun colors and prints you have to look forward to. Just because you aren’t ready to wear those pieces yet doesn’t mean you can purchase them right now and save them for later.

The perfect transitional style pieces to wear before you’re ready tackle bright colors and prints are: light wash denim, ankle boots, pastel or neutral colored sweaters, white denim, sneakers or slip-ons and light weight jackets or vests. The best way to start slowly incorporating hints of spring into your wardrobe is by wearing bright colored accessories and peep-toe booties or wedges.

Good Morning readers, I hope you’re all having a great week so far. In case you didn’t notice, this is the second romper from Haus 131 that I have styled this week and I’ll also be posting another romper tomorrow. I’m just kind of on a romper kick right now because they’re so easy and it’s so hot outside. For real though! It’s so hot outside that I just don’t even feel like thinking about putting clothes on. So lately I’ve just been throwing on fun lightweight rompers to run around town in.

Something else that I want to mention is my lace bandeau. I have a really short torso so dresses, tops and rompers with deep V-necks or low scoop necks always reach just a tad to low on my chest so I usually have to use fashion tape or find something to wear underneath.  After a while I grew tired of the regular old nude bandeau so I thought I’d try something a little riskier and decided to buy a black lace bandeau. I kept the lace bandeau in my dresser drawer for two months before I decided to actually pull it out and cut the tags off and man do I wish I would have done it sooner! Because it’s Ah-mazing! <–(Yes, Jordan. I know you shouldn’t start a sentence with because! lol) In case you’re wondering what that was about, my best friend Jordan from fourth grade always sends me my grammar and spelling mistakes after I publish my pots each morning. Thank goodness that she does though because I tend to make some pretty embarrassing mistakes when typing late at night or first thing when I wake up in the morning. So thank you for baring with me and mistakes!

Anyway, back to the lace bandeau! I just love it because it adds just that little bit of edge to my outfits plus it pairs so well with all of my favorite summer booties. My favorite way to wear it is with a deep V-neck like this one where you can almost see the entire bandeau. It also looks really cute beneath sheer flowy tops. What are your thoughts on the lace bandeau?
