Color Files: Color Blocking in bold and bright.

April 8, 2011

style

Posted 09/12

Look 1: Dress, Bangle, Ring, Tote
If you haven’t noticed yet, I kind of love bright and bold colors:D So, the color blocking trend is right up my alley;) These were a few favorite dresses I came across this week that kind of remind me of bubblicious gum. You just want to chew on it…hmmm. Hope you enjoy!
I made it through a week of long anxious nights! My due date is Monday so we shall see what happens over the weekend:) You all are so sweet for checking in on me. I look forward to being able to share the news! Until then, I am going to be catching up on sleep and rest (since that will be hard to come by once the baby gets here) and enjoying my family. Have a fantastic weekend!
