Friday's Fances::Spring Fever

Yes spring is absolutely on my mind.  It helps when we have had some spring-like weather here in Wisconsin-who would have thought? Nothing beats wearing Sperrys for recess duty in January.  I support it.  

So have you heard that color is in the year?! I know shocking, I hadn't either.  Happy to be here to keep you in the loop, friends.

In all seriousness, I'm embracing colored pieces with open arms, kind of like this spring weather.  I purchased this J. Crew Blythe Blouse in royal blue (while using my student discount of course!), and in a perfect world I would own it in every color.  It's comfortable, versatile, and will be a good layering piece in my closet.  I paired it with leggings, boots, and my Spike the Punch necklace this past week, but here is another way to wear the blouse:
spring fever
J. Crew Blythe Blouse // H&M Slim-fit Trousers // Tory Burch Studs // Jane Hollinger Necklace // Zara Messenger Bag // Tory Burch Reva Flats

I haven't seen too much blue + pink, but I'm liking this combo more and more.  I especially love the simplicity of the gold accessories mixed with the royal blue.  A casual messenger bag is a piece you can pair with so many different outfits.  I have been searching for one for quite some time. Dress it up, dress it down, it will still look classic.

Would you pair blue and pink together?

As always, I'm linking up with {long distance loving}

Student discount? I'm researching all over online! I'm a student AND a teacher, so that's a double discount maybe? Can it be used online?
