Spring Neutrals

(Shorts, sweater, collared shirt - h&m, shoes - Madewell, bag - Zara, watch - Michael Kors)

Hello hello! Hope everyone had a fantastic weekend, and of course, an amazing Mother's Day :*) Spring has finally sprung, which means it's the perfect time to bring one's pastels to the forefront of the closet. That's right, push those dark & dreary wintertime pieces far, faaaaaaar back and deep within your closet, where they cannot be touched! I really wanted to pull together a fresh outfit this weekend. The mesh sweater is a recent purchase from h&m -- and although it is a sweater, the mesh material allows for it to be a rather light and layerable piece for Spring. The shorts, from h&m as well, are such a pretty pastel pink colour that almost look white in the sunlight -- most def. a Spring staple. I love the juxtaposition of a long-sleeved top, like a blazer or sweater, with a crisp pair of shorts. This combo can be rather tricky as it can only really be done in very particular weather: warm (enough to wear shorts), yet still slightly breezy (enough to wear long sleeves without perspiring.. haha). 

P.S. Some of you may have noticed that I cut an inch or two off my hair. It was definitely time for it! I'm slowly but surely saying bye-bye to my ombre. I miss having healthy hair!
