Would You Like A Crepe

Hey there lovebugs,
Today we define a term that we've heard used all of the time: crepe. It's a silk, wool, or synthetic fiber that is known for its crisp and crinkle appearance. Depending on the material, it can be stiff but that can be a blessing when you want a piece with a bit more structure. Let me show you what I mean.

Forever 21, Shawl Collar Crepe Blazer, $34

OK, so unclear where this model is going in a blazer and her bellybutton but that aside this is a fantastic spring blush blazer.

Nordstrom, Chelsea28 Pleated A-Line Skirt, $78

A very relaxed pleat that has a casual cool vibe. 

Ann Taylor, Colorblock Crepe Tee, $59

I love a structured but not constricting top for work. This top is a great base or where as is with a statement earring.

Urban Outfitters, Band Of Gypsies Grecian High-Neck Crepe Maxi Dress, $79

I can't even with this beauty. It looks red carpet but when you feel it, its a cotton crepe. In a stunning merlot.

Crepe is an often discussed textile with no real understanding of what it is or when to wear it. I really like this material for spring because it's structured, ready for work or play, and it's is 99% of the time machine washable.

Fresh Squeezed

Let's sweeten up this hump day with some cheery color. I walked passed a lovely lady this week and did a double take on her dress. It wasn't yellow, it wasn't even a buttercup, it was lighter yet sweeter, I decided it was lemon. Lemon is the color today. It's light and sunny but not as saturated as your standard yellow.

Bloomingdale's, AQUA Skirt Eyelet Pleated Midi, $78

Starting strong with this eyelet beauty. I love the ivory contrast behind the lemon.

Modcloth, Cheer Comes the Sun Dress, $59

Perfect brunch dress. I love the neckline and the peek-a-boo sides.

Target, Women's Lemon Print Infinity Crinkle Scarf, $11

Oh come on, I had to include this sweet lemon print scarf. I'd pair this with a denim jacket for a cooler spring day.

JCPenny, Peplum Cardigan Sweater, $24

A peplum cardi? Excellent work JCPenny. And the price point is spot on.

A beautiful lemon for this midweek post. It's cheery, almost pastel, and it's bound to brighten up your closet.
