STYLE TIP:
Layering pastels is a fun and easy way to add depth and interest.
Here I chose soft pink and mint green.
Lace Top - F21 (Similar ON SALE HERE)
Necklace - H&M (available in stores)
Pencil Skirt - H&M (Similar ON SALE HERE)
Heels - Lauren Conrad for Kohls (ON SALE HERE)
Bracelet - Gift
Clutch - Nordstrom
Pastels and lace overflowed the Marc Jacobs at Louis Vuitton runway...kicking off one of the season's biggest trends: romantic + sweet.
The "30-something year old Marion" loves it.
But the "7-year old tomboy Marion" kinda wants to barf.
What do you think about the romantic + sweet trend?

oh my gosh, marion, I DIE. this is like all of my favorite things wrapped up in one outfit - pink, mint, pastel, lace, awesome. gah. so fabulous, girl!
Marion, I love the lace top. I actually purchased one from F21 a little while back, but haven't worn it yet. I definitely have it in the works to pair it with the same polka dot skirt from H&M you posted a week ago. Girl, I ran (really drove) to the only H&M in town to get that skirt...
Tomboy Kate still won't allow Right Now Kate to wear too-girly trends.
Whining aside, you really do look perfectly put together and lady-like. I adore this on you!
Holy gorgeous Marion! This entire outfit is so stunning. I bet you're turning heads. The lace, mint and pink are such a beautiful combination. BTW, thanks for telling us about the link ups, found some great bloggers and joined them as well :-)
I think this is one of my most favorite outfit posts of yours ever! You look amazing!
in love with this look! mint and pink go so well together :)

I lOVE it!! Oh I'm going to have to go back to Forever 21 and look for a lace shirt like that! I got one a couple years ago and I've pretty puch worn the life out of it. Your skin look so pretty against pastels...especially the pink. I know, 7 year old tomboy Marion, I know you want to barf. But remember...real tomboys wear pink. :)
i LOVE this. I just picked up the skirt and shoes, I had to. My husband thanks you :-) You look fabulous in pastels!
oh girl, I loooove it. It's gorgeous, especially on you with your coloring.. beautiful!
You rock a pencil skirt girl. Slightly jealous. ;)
WOW you look absolutely gorgeous - this is the PERFECT Combination!!!

Hahaha I laughed at your comment about 30-something Marion vs 7-year-old Marion because I often feel the same way!!! This outfit is so feminine and lovely, I can totally see why your 7-year-old tomboy self would be shocked. :)
yes its girly but not too much ... you kept it simple so it works! :) pippa

I LOVE this! I wore mint and lace the other day too, such a great combination.
You look stunning in this, your husband needs to take you out to dinner in it! : ) Can't believe that top is F21, it looks expensive!
This wonderful mint green is everywhere... everywhere...
Bet there is some deep in my closet... perhaps a long needed search is in the nearterm?
Love ly outfit!
