Perforated Pastels

I went through quite the purple stage my freshman year of college. Everything from my bedding to my slippers fell victim to my color infatuation. Since then, I avoid it entirely, unless disguised as a pretty pastel shade. This dress though, with its perforations and peplum, is closer to a pale pink, which I’ve never been able to resist.

    Emily, you look gorgeous in lilac. I noticed your heels are probably one of your best investments. I’m still looking for a pair that’s similar to yours. Love your blog and hopefully we get to see you in Vancouver, BC one day. Have a great day!

    Nice outfit – the skirt could be 2 inches longer – I think it would be more flattering. And a bit more color on your lips would be very pretty.

    Wow, i just love the outfit and the colors are so beautiful

  • http://www.vialafemme.com Rayna

    I totally get the obsession with this shade of lilac! In fact, I am wearing a similar color in my very first blog post. You look so good, Emily!
