Neon Crush

So this winter has me in a real slump, not just because it's actually freezing in New York but because the weatherman has really been playing with my emotions. In this week alone it hit mid 50's and the next day it was supposedly going to snow. Needless to say my wintery wonderland dreams did not come true, and I of course had no snow day [[as I am too old for that now]] Oh, adulthood. So I digress.

Luckily fellow bloggers are all consistent with merging some bright NEON'S into their everyday wardrobes.And I'm loving every bit of it! [[Don't you worry ladies, all the credit is to you]]

For the daring, I absolutely love how bold these ladies paired their neon's, whether it be a shirt, a heel, or motorcycle jacket. All in all I wish my winters consisted of 70 degree weather and that I had the courage to up and move to the best coast i mean the west coast.. But that is a different story.

These looks are a bit subdued in the neon department, but I just as easily adore them. Prints on prints - bold prints paired with solid neon's. So easy yet such a statement. I especially love  the middle outfit, only I'd have to pair it with some fun stockings and boots.

Even brighter, only a bit far fetched for my taste. I love how confident yet stand out-ish these three looks are- jumpsuits, fur frocks and motorcycle bombers alike.

These on the other hand are super wearable. Has anyone else noticed the revival of the destructed jean? I thought this trend was reserved for the Jersey Shore paired with some hideous Ed Hardy shirt, but now a days all my fav bloggers wear them on the regular- whether it be a skinny or the more comfortable boyfriend jean. Pair them with a heel and you have a super chic look.But back to neon's: they are super easy to wear as shirts and just layer the neutrals slash other staples to make the perfect work or weekend wear.

Last but certainly not least this group. Can we say love? I've always envied those that can pull off white jeans, sadly I have the worst luck and would destroy them first wear. Therefore I give up. A fun dress or puffer coat in a pop color is the way to go too, now only if I knew where to find them at a reasonable price...

Any suggestions ladies?

It Isn't Sunny in the City

Supposedly it's spring, I haven't seen any consistent warm weather that would suggest any such thing. So there are spring showers, so what? This weather is really putting a damper on be bringing out all my scandalous spring essentials. 

So here's a peek at what I'd like to wear during the day- if it mean't not getting terminated from my job for indecent exposure, (the top flys open in the back, and the skirt looks like a micro mini with my long ol' legs.) 

Anywho, clockwise from top left:

1. Aruba Blue Chuck Taylor All Star Sneakers (similar)
2. Brandy Melville Long Cami (similar)
3. H&M [bleached out] Denim shirt (similar)
4. Marc by Marc Jacobs Crossbody (similar)
5. Urban Outfitters [Mini] Pleated Skirt (similar)
6. Essie Nail Polish - Mint Candy Apple (Turq) Vanity Fairest (Nude) Vermillionaire (Orange)

Vermillionaire reminds me of that lovely tune by Travie McCoy... But on a brighter note, spring is all about nudes and pastels this year. Yes complete opposite sides of the spectrum- but make of it what you will. Personally, I prefer mixing a hint of everything all together and deal with the outcome because I never match. Hence my neutral slash pastel ensemble with pops of color for accessories and nail polish. Perfection!

Needless to say, I'm covered from head to toe and only wish I could comfortably wear the outfit in this post. Well, aside from the nail polish. That ish cray- my outfit may match, but my nails certainly don't!

What spring essentials can't you live without?
