Yes, this trend is hot right now.   Color is making a hellva come-back and I say “it’s about time’!  There were quite a few bloggers before this trend who really embraced color, no they were not scare and they ramped it up without fear. Culturecynic being one of them. Love, love, love her use of bold colors and vibrant prints! 

 Why do we wait for trends sometimes before we get out of our comfort zone? 

 

Neutrals have it place but I’ll always be drawn to bold, bright vibrant color that wakes my spirit up!  So I’m working on several pairs of bold colored jeans and pants. New York & Company is on the list as Old Navy.  Colored blazers are also on the list.

Even though the weather was not that great today, extra cloudy….the temperature was very mild, so I hit the stores and found a few two-tone clutches.  Two with a solid and animal print mix and the other with a nice color-box mix.  I found a few a Target, but they seem a bit too small. I tend to like the XL oversized clutch, so I got room for all my stuff, may have just have to do a d.i.y. so I can get what I want.

New Kicks from Target – Colorblock Platforms!

Filed Under : Shoes and Boots by Budget_Chic
I was doing my usuall trek through Tarjay and stumbled on this colorblock platforms. I was literally amazed! I love the tones in these shoes as well as the heel height and builded-up front platform. I was ready to walk out the store, but had to try them on first; because I know how ill-fitting Target shoes can be (at least for me anyway). Surprisingly the Size 7 fit just right, they stayed on my feet (which usually don’t happen with heavy pumps) and they felt comfortable.I tried these on with some skinny colored jeans, but the jeans weren’t working. I need to get the pair I saw in NY& & Company, I know they’ll be a better fit. Well, I think these are keepers! They are also available on the Target website.
