Cupcakes and Cashmere

Tangerine Trees and Marmalade Skies

January 26th, 2011

Since Wednesdays are usually my least favorite day of the week, I figured an eye-candy-esque assortment of colors would be just the thing to brighten my mood.  With spring approaching quickly, I can’t wait to wear unapologetically vibrant shades that mirror my favorite fruits.  Whether you’re currently in the snow or already experiencing spring-like weather, these pieces are sure to add a fun splash of color to your daily routine.

2. Topshop Pleat Collar Blouse $80
3. Nars Lip Gloss in Stolen Kisses $24
4. Current/Elliot The Captain Cotton Shorts $140
5. Francesca’s Red Hot Dress $89.99
6. Vanessa Bruno Tapered Crepe Pants $425
7. Topshop Coral Zip Back Vest $56
8. Diane von Furstenberg Semi Rimless Aviator Sunglasses $175
9. Kate Spade Darla Wallet $125
10. Essie Nail Polish in California Coral $8

    This post makes me so happy! New York is currently getting hit with a lot more snow right now so this just brightened my day.

    I don’t think you’ve been gravitating to yellow as much as you have been gravitating toward orange…Well they’re in the same family of colors…LOL…so it’s all relative

    The dress is beautiful, it reminds me of the red H&M garden collection one you wore in a previous post.

    Ooh I love that Essie polish!

  • http://daniellepowell.blogspot.com Danielle

    I’ve been stuck in the snow these past few days and I’m dreaming of spring! I agree, Wednesdays are the worst :(

    I’m so glad you chose peach specifically– I saw so many peach-colored gowns at the Golden Globes and I know it’s going to the color of Spring 2010. Each item you chose is not only gorgeous, but practical. I’ve now got some ideas of how to incorporate peach into my spring wardrobe without buying a designer gown. :)

    thanks for sharing!

    That Topshop top is great (and in budget) I also love the wallet. It would be a great talking point among frinds when it is removed from the handbag.
