Celeb Inspired Style: Raspberry + Tangerine

Do you ever run out of style ideas?  Me too.  

Here's a tip: 
When you see style photos you like on-line, break out your phone and snap a quick photo.  You can look back on them later for inspiration! 


I loved the colors at play here on Chelsea Kane and thought I would give it a go!  


 STYLE TIP: 
Bold colors are a big trend right now AND are slated to be big for Fall/Winter.  
Don't be afraid to invest in a little color...


Shorts - Express
Blouse - H&M (similar HERE and HERE)
Earrings - ASOS (similar HERE)
Heels - LC by Lauren Conrad (on sale!)

So do you take inspiration from photos you see on-line?

PS - My friend Tira, who writes the fashion blog Style Eye, has a great idea for capturing and using inspiration from your favorite magazines.  Check it out here!

I like this, the bold color, then, the less is more, no tons of jewelry stacked on top. Looks just right!

I love the bright color combo! I get fashion inspiration from a bunch of different places. Sometimes my brain stops working and I need to see something else to figure out what to wear :)

@ everyone - Thanks ladies! I love the color combination. Maybe a little too bright for me when I think about everyday wear...but it's fun to experiment. :)
Have wonderful Mondays!

I love this color combo - looks so great on you! I go to pinterest all the time for outfit ideas (I did that this morning actually), especially when I have a piece I know I want to wear but nothing to wear it with. Great tip!

Laura said...

Great colors on you, you look gorgeous in this outfit! I love keeping style inspiration too - I have an extremely overloaded Pinterest account, and I have magazine tears/scans from the days before Pinterest was around :) Definitely helps when you're feeling a little less than creative in the mornings!

I love those colors together...I've done it with a top and skirt for work, but it's definitely on my must try list for summer with shorts!

I definitely look to other bloggers for inspiration, but I'll also just look at colors used in ads. A logo might be light purple, cobalt, and white, and it will inspire me to pull out items from my closet of the same colors.

If you have a particular item you want to incorporate in an outfit (e.g., polka dot skirt), searching that item on Pinterest can provide lots of inspiration, too.

Well done on the bold colors. Love the idea about adding inspiration to your phone. I am doing it the old fashion way, pulling pages and then in my notebook. I must be old.. Tee Hee.

Beautiful color combo! I wore an identical combo a couple of months ago and received so many compliments on it.

We all need a little color in our life!

I do the same thing! My phone is full of style idea pics! I get a lot of inspiration from Pinterest too. Orange and pink is one of my all time color combos! I recently did a post on it

I swear I didn't copy you but this is what I'm wearing today!!!!! FUNNY!

MissRockwell said...

I get inspiration from everywhere-magazines, online, at the mall. I just jot them down in my phone using my memo app and I go to it when I'm stuck in a rut!

In spite of this, many institutions have attempted to head off the looming crisis by growing their own and promote the development of prospective leaders among younger staff. Each has its pros and cons. Hazard: The power connector for the dehumidifier's compressor can short circuit, posing fire and burn hazards to consumers. It's smart, but not THAT smart. The head is made up of concentrated oils from the coffee.

Can I simply just say what a relief to uncover someone who actually
understands what they're discussing on the internet. You actually understand how to bring a problem to light and make it important. A lot more people must check this out and understand this side of your story. I was surprised you aren't more popular because you certainly have the gift.

Cool blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it from
somewhere? A theme like yours with a few simple tweeks would really make my blog shine.
Please let me know where you got your design. Thank you
