Blue Dreams, Big Accent Pieces...

Hey all! Welcome back and Happy Monday! 

Today I am playing with two fun styling techniques: first, a tried-and-true technique, monochromatic styling, and second, styling unique accessories! 

Too be fair, this is not a completely monochromatic look. The lace top is a little break in the blue, of course, but everything else is different shades of blue. This is a technique that is fun to me. By using different shades of the same hue, it draws intrigue to the look! In fact, in Paris, the fashion week has been going on and monochromatic looks are HUGE on the runway there! 

It also allows for you to play with different textures and fabrics. 

The second styling trick is accessorizing, but instead of just your basic necklaces, bracelets, and hang bags, how about an oversized flower pin!? 

I have gotten very into flower pins! I have two that I use pretty regularly and a third one on the way. This one is large and has become one of my favorite accessories! It adds an unexpected flair to the look. It is big enough to draw interest but not so big as to be distracting or tacky. 

I had a busy weekend! And did not get much sleep last night, so I am going to end this post here! Thank you so much for reading! Please feel free to let me know how you feel about flower pins! Or if you have a go-to accessory that you love, I'd love to hear about it! 

See you guys on Wednesday! Have a great week!
