Coral Crush

April 21st, 2011

Handmade Tulle Headband, Maybelline Coral Crush Lipstick, Essie Lovie Dovie Nail Polish, Vintage Leopard Blazer, Express Blouse, Phillip Lim Shorts, Zara Clutch, Steve Madden Booties

I bought this mango-colored tulle (among other sherbet shades) a while ago and have been playing around with different projects ever since. One of my failed attempts at a necklace has since turned into a headband, which I complemented (though unintentionally) with cotton candy nails, coral lips and a bright orange bag. I love how the base of this outfit felt professional and the little details (like leopard, tulle and neon) made it playful and perfect for spring.

hate to break it to you but that isn’t “professional”. an oxford shirt and khaki shorts are preppy but not professional, especially when the shorts are that short.
it is cute though.

though i love all these pieces individually but i think this is the first time you haven’t hit the nail on the head for me.
still fabulous lip color but i think the jacket with the headband all at once is a little too much. still.. love your style xo

Do you think all skin tones can rock the coral lipstick? Thanks for the coral inspiration:)

I love that leopard print coat!! Your mix of the stunning peach coloured flower headband you made and the other oranges and pinks, with the leopard go so refreshingly well together. It’s a mix that I wouldn’y have expected to work, but you pull it off so perefctly!

You have to try the lipstick and nail polish from the quite cute collection by MAC Cosmetics if you like pastel colors.

This is hot! Pops of color with your bag, and the black booties gave it the right amount of edge to keep it from looking too sweet. Blazers are my favorite go to piece-this one is trendy but not over the top. You have such great style

Hi,
I think these tan shorts are adorable. You are by far my favorite blogger, I believe because we always like people we resemble.

Your outfits are always so inspiring! This one is definitely another win, especially with the lips and the flower. Would you be able to post a DIY for us copycats?

I love the coral burst of color. My new favorite thing is to wear a bright coral/sherbet lipstick with little other make up.
