Lilly's Mermaids Make A Splash

"...laying low with our toes in the sea.
I'll be your mermaid, I'll be your sea queen..."

- First Kiss - The Aquadolls-

 

 

I am in love with the new Lilly Pulitzer print, Nice Tail!

How great are these mermaids?! 

So far, Nice Tail comes in two styles. Both dresses below are adorable but I'm hoping to see this print on more...a Murfee Scarf perhaps?

Summer come soon!!

Ocean Blue Baubles

When it comes to bold statement jewelry I always lean towards anything turquoise, cobalt, aqua...ok, any & all shades of blue. I tend to only wear one piece at a time but I love what a unique bauble can do for an outfit. If I'm feeling uninspired by what's in my closet, statement jewelry can save the day...especially if it reminds me of the ocean :)

A gloomy, rainy Wednesday calls for a garden party, or at least the chance to wear one!
Silver lining- those rain drops are melting down the snow...I'm ignoring the fact that there is a chance for snow here tomorrow. March showers bring April flowers perhaps? Fingers crossed.

Pearls & Anchors

-

In the midst of our Sunday afternoon errands, my Husband & I stopped at one of our favorite places thinking we'd enjoy a walk on the beach and capture a few picts for the blog. Well friends, it was a wind tunnel- no matter which way you stood...a hair-in-your-face-when-you-don't-have-an-elastic kind of beach day...great for the soul, not the best for blog pictures!

My husband was an excellent first time photographer & captured just the right shots to show this pretty pink coat, pearl embellished blouse and cashmere anchor scarf.

Links to what I'm wearing below.

 

I could not love this scarf more, so soft.

There's a little shoulder poof detail the on the coat...just enough.

 

wiiiindy.

Fresh Stripes & Lemons

Fresh Stripes by theseasaltedblonde 

Navy, white & yellow might just be my favorite color combination. I know pastels are everything this Spring however; I also can't get enough of this fresh, relaxed yet very put together look.
I came across these pieces while online "window" shopping & wanted to wear this outfit immediately! Perfect weekend wear. Navy & white striped trench coat-$60! Adorable lemon print Keds for Kate Spade-$75. Except for the watch & necklace; each item is under $75!
I've been searching for an inexpensive pair of distressed boyfriend jeans, these ones from Gap might be winners...any recommendations? I don't own a pair of distressed jeans or even boyfriend jeans but I've been loving the look...especially when paired with heels.
