Welcome to the 1st
"Trend of the Month" Link-Up!
This month's challenge: NEON
If you follow me on Twitter, you know that I picked up the last
"Fashion Star" dress at H&M in my size.
Hooray for a $19 dress that shows some back yet I can still wear a bra!
I am a firm believer in mixing up inexpensive finds with investment pieces.
These neon yellow Jimmy Choo heels were made for my neon challenge!
(And yes...I am a klutz and already scuffed them a little during this shoot.
This is the reason I am not allowed to buy white shoes!)
Neon Style Tip: Mix up the neon! Instead of two neon yellow pieces here,
I threw in a saucy hot pink.
You want to avoid looking too matchy-matchy.
Dress Fashion Star For H&M (Check availability HERE)
Shoes - Jimmy Choo (Purchase HERE)
Earrings - Nordstrom (Available in stores)
Ring - H&M (Available in stores)

2. Link back to Marionberry Style

This is the perfect neon outfit you are fabuloous at colouur blocking. I love the dress especially. I was wondering how can I find out about the monthly challenge and can anyone join for future months?

So excited you're hosting this challenge! Thanks! Gotta admit, still a little bitter I didn't get one of those dress, but I'm so happy that you were able to score it, it looks great on you! BTW, those shoes....to DIE for. I'm sorry that you scuffed them :-(, but if it makes you feel better I probably would have too. I swear I'm the biggest clutz when I walk, I constantly scuff my shoes and smack my little ankles...I think I walk crooked...ha ha!

This might be my favorite outfit ever on you, Marion! You are looking hot in that dress! And very tan...if that's from something in a bottle, I need to know what product you're using!

PS I'll be linking up tomorrow :)
Wow that dress is sooo awesome! And those shoes are killer! This makes me want neon shoes so bad, you pulled off neon so well and it doesn't look like you fell out of the 80's I love the look!
That dress is 100% amazing on you! I love the back! I'm so sad I don't have an H&M near me :(
OOOO girlfriend, you look sexy!!!! Could put you on the cover of Instyle, or any fashion magazine. You look hotter than any starlett. Beautiful color on you.
I love this dress! I have yet to snag something from the Fashion Star! I can't seem seem to get myself together to get out there! Ha! You look amazing!
LOVE those yellow shoes!!
What a great outfit! I'm totally jealous of that dress! :)
You look hot! Love that dress. I knew it was Fashion Star before I read it. LOL! Fashion nerds, unite! :)

I am so bummed I can't get that dress anymore! They need to have you as the model online! I saw it and thought it was cute, but seeing it on you makes it look awesome!
I'm sad I missed the link up today. :(. I've been so busy I haven't gotten a chance to wear the little bits of neon I bought recently.

Your outfit looks great - I much prefer it to mine, lol. ;-)
AMAZING! You look absolutely amazing. Die for the dress and the shoes. Way to Rock it!
Marion, you are killing it, girl!!!
Ohhhhhh, your shoes are amazing. Yellow Choos? Be still my weak heart!
@ everyone - Thanks so much for all the sweet comments! I was so excited to snag the Fashion Star dress! I think I had an advantage living in a city that isn't so fashion-obsessed(Denver). Less competition! LOL!
XO - Marion
AMAZING! You knocked it out of the ballpark. Great look.
I love your outfit! It's so fun and bright! I just found your blog yesterday (love that you're from Denver, I live here too) so I didn't get to participate in this link up but I will definitely in the future!
You look FAB! LOVE The Choo's!
I am a huge fan of neon looks & this one of yours is unquestionably fabulous! I love that you paired that gorgeous blue dress with bright shoes & accessories. I'm also a believer in invest finds paired with inexpensive pieces - you've certainly done a great job of that here!
Now following you :)

Marion - you look gorgeous and so jealous of the dress you got from H&M that is sold out! And the shoes - hello, would steal those from you. The whole outfit is one of my favs.
Wish I could link up. . . I don't have any new neon pieces, hubby has me on purchase lockdown until I actually have the baby :)

oooh neon... always been afraid of it but looking forward to see if I can create an outfit n remember to link-up. Love ur Jimmy Choos!
YEAH! This was one of my favorite pieces from the first episode too. Its just too bad I didnt get to watch it that night - I PVR'd it and when I went online to buy SOLD OUT! Boooo
This is what I get so going to bed so early.... The story of a mother I guess.

Funny, I didn't think much of this dress when I saw it on tv, but you have 100% changed my mind and make me actually want it badly! This seriously looks stunning on you!
I love the neon trend - and you wore neon so perfectly!! Those shoes - and forgive me for saying this cliche Rachel Zoe word - are MAJOR.
Thanks for hosting Marion, I really enjoyed myself. I love your dress as well (and how awesome that it looks so avant garde in the back yet you can still wear a bra?!!) I'm totally serious right now, that is the dream for sure!
Gorgeous dress! I love the back!

Thanks for hosting Marion. Hope it's ok but I linked to an previous post since I had posted about neon previously.
I saw the episode with the dress and was curious to see how it looked in real life. The dress and color looks fab on you and I love the contrasting yellow shoe! :)
I love the neon trend, and your outfit captures it perfectly! Also love the link-up.
