I wanted to play with my brother and his friends and do all the fun boy stuff.
Obviously, God did not grant me this wish.
So I was the next best thing...a tomboy.
I bring this up because if you would have shown this pastel sweater to 7-year old Marion, her response would have been something along the lines of "barf."
Earrings & scarf - H&M
Pastel green blouse - Nexx via Nordstrom
Pastel purple sweater - Halogen via Nordstrom (similar HERE)
Shorts - Express (On sale HERE)
Heels - Lauren Conrad for Kohls (Purchase HERE)
Necklace - Nordstrom
Watch - Michael Kors (Purchase HERE)
I guess you could say that I've come along way since then... :-)
So are you embracing the pastel trend this spring?
XO - Marion
PS - Just a little note to say thank you so much for your awesome comments in my last post. You guys are so wonderful! I am the first one to acknowledge that I am not a model nor am I trying to be. I just like clothes + fashion, so I never really thought twice about smiling in my photos. But rest assured...I'll just keep on being my cheesy/goofy self!

Absolutely - love pastels! I'm wearing them everywhere from my nails to my necklaces. I think it's such a fun trend when paired with bold colors like you've done. So cute!
All I have to say is, your smile is ridiculously awesome in these pics.
Nuff said!
haha, I was just like you when I was a kid! I stole my younger brothers toy cars and wanted a remote controle Nikon jeep for my birthday. I played with Lego and Knex and only got to meet Barbie at age 10 or so. That's when everything changed, haha.
Loving this outfit Marion! those shorts have such a pretty colour and dang, you've got some legs there! x

So pretty! I still have barely any pastels. I don't even know why, but for some reason all my colours are brights! Maybe because I'm so pale..
I love that you're not scared of color! Btw, I love that necklace ;) xo, tasha
Right there with you girl! Newest obsession is mint green! Lol. I'm totally loving this look too, soooo pretty :)
