SPLASHY FLORAL

So, I'll be the first to admit that head-to-toe floral print ( well almost heat-to-toe ) is probably a bit of a bold choice and surely, if this print was in color, I probably wouldn't have worn these two together. But, and call me crazy here, but I think the black and white color combo, actually makes this floral very wearable. To tone down this look a bit, I kept the rest of the outfit achromatic by adding black and white platforms and my go-to-black-bag for every occasion ( I am sure you are sick of seeing my Boy, but I love him and cannot bear to be without him ). Finally, I just couldn't resist the urge to introduce a little color to this look and since bright nails seemed like the right way to go, I painted my digits in the brightest, prettiest teal ever, or as I like to call it, the best nail color butter LONDON ever created!

Hey Everyone,

I am sure you guys remember a post I did a little while ago with my good friend Belen from B* a la Moda. Even though Belen and I never met in person, our love of fashion brought us together and we quickly became great friends. Recently, Belen and I came up with an idea of styling the same piece of clothing to showcase our individual style. I don't know about you, but I love to see fashion from multiple points of view! 

Last time, we had a blast styling a beautiful Zara top (See my post HERE and see Belen's post HERE), and since we had such a great time, we decided to do it again! 

THE CHALLENGE: This time, our challenge was to style a super cute ASOS skirt, which we both already had in our closets and previously wore on our blogs. However, for this post we had to style it in a new, Spring appropriate way. Naturally, we got 2 very different interpretations of the same skirt.

MY LOOK: Since I love bright colors and sharp contrasts, I decided to pair my skirt with white, black and turquoise. I am also sure you noticed, my choice of nail polish color is never incidental. For me, nail color is basically an accessory, so I always make sure it goes with whatever I'm wearing. In this instance, I think a bright peach polish gives an outfit a more Spring-appropriate feeling. 

BELEN'S LOOK: Now onto Belen's look, I absolutely love the way Belen's styled her skirt! The combination of white, beige and coral looks fresh and Spring-ready. I also love the way Belen paired her skirt with a trench coat - a great transitional piece, for some Spring-appropriate layering. Finally, as I mentioned before nail polish color is really a great accessory, and Belen's bright coral nail polish adds a fun touch to her Spring look.

Hope you enjoyed our post and see you again soon!
