Week's Best Looks: April 7th 2013.
So what we got cooking this week? Well, last Sunday was Easter so most of the looks this week are either what the ladies wore for Easter (be it church, a luncheon, etc.) or Easter-inspired and definitely Spring-inspired, too. So we see a lot of dresses & a lot of skirts. We see Bright Colors & Pastel Colors which surprisingly this Spring are both In Style. A lot of Cardigans too, but also quite a bit of Tweed (2 Blazers & a Skirt). We have a couple of High-Low Skirts in the mix, and many Pencil skirts. Most dresses feature full A-line Skirts and there is a pretty Eyelet Little White Dress in the mix. There are three Peplum Tops, all different from one-another, in here.We have some Exotic Prints in this week's roundup and our Stripes are not missing either. We have 5 very Versatile Stripped Tops that always prove can be mixed with so many things. We also have our share of Polka Dots: a Dress, a pair of Cropped Pants, a Button-Down & a Skirt. And you will notice some Watercolor in the Prints, also. The colors that dominate are Pinks, Corals, Lavenders, Turquoise/Aqua/Mint & Yellows. As far as accessories go you will see Beautiful Spring Scarves, including a Pashmina, a few Skinny Belts, Pretty Necklaces both long & short including a couple of Pear, Bold Statement Necklaces, Sunglasses & so Many Gorgeous Envelope Clutches. There are 3 different, Fun hats, also. In the shoe department, we have lots of Nude shoes, especially Nude Pumps. But we also have lots of Cognac Shoes from Pumps, to Strappy Stilettos & Boots. And we have a few pairs of Black Pumps, as well. Last but not least a couple pairs of Sexy, Strappy White Stilettos, too. And one more thing, a few Fun Side Braids. These ladies know how to style their hair as well. One more thing: Heather from H&K Style Journey had over a dozen of Great Looks this past week and narrowing it down to these two was very difficult. Also, Rebecca from Mommy in Heels had a Floral Dress she styled 3 ways (one of which ways I loved so much) & a Fantastic Date Night Outfit that I also adored. So here we go, see if one of your looks was featured below.
This Week's Lovely Looks:
(Each Collage from Left to Right, Top to Bottom.)
Mia mixes her Pinks & Corals to Perfection by Choosing a Neutral, Cream Blouse & adding Sexy Leopard Slingbacks. I love the Watercolor Scarf laying down casually & the Color-block Clutch.Alison is also wearing Coral, as well as an Adorable Scarf in a Tribal Print, Dressing Up her Blue Jeans. Loving the Bright Blazer paired with the Simple Stripped Top.
Maylee is convincing herself it's Spring in this Aqua & Yellow Ensemble which can double as her Easter Outfit. I love how she keeps it edgy with Cognac Boots yet adds a Colorful, Girly, Statement Necklace.
Heather for Easter chose a Beautiful Dress that is Red, Floral & Colorful on the Skirt & Black+White Stripped on top. She paired it with a Black Wrap Cardigan, Black Tights & Black Pumps.
Lauren chose her Sunday Best in a Aqua/Lavender/Teal Watercolor Dress paired with a Lavender Cardigan & Pointy Toe Nude Flats. She looks like a Bouquet of Spring Flowers.
Lyddie pairs a Mint Skirt with an Emerald Blouse (two off-the-moment Colors), with a Tweed Blazer & Sexy T-Strap Pumps. She adds a Beautiful Teal Purse for a Great Color-block look.
Ana's White Eyelet Dress is Perfection paired with a Watercolor Red/Orange/Lavender Cardigan & a Skinny Gold Belt over it. I love her White Sandal Wedges.
Robin mixes shades of Sky Blue & Lilac in her Pastel-Colored Outfit of a Girly, Stripped Skirt, Sexy, Ruched Top & a Cardigan with a Flower Detail. I love her Dainty Teardrop Earrings & Fun Bracelet.
Agnes wears her Tall, Brown, Riding Boots with a Turquoise Cardigan & Dainty Ivory Top. She adds a Fun, Gray, Bucket Hat for a Relaxed, Casual Look.
Sarah wears Bright, Magenta Purple Cropped Pants & does a good job layering with a Chambray Button-Down, Mustard Cardigan & Classic Khaki Trench. She then adds a Dainty Long Necklace.
Lauren looks so Young & Pretty in a Tomato Red, Wrap Dress with Ruffles & Adorable Nude Flats. She adds some Long, Bohemian, Leaf Earrings & a side Braid.
Shelby put her Best & Brightest Pink forward for Easter Sunday in a Gorgeous, Neon Blouse & Tweed Pencil Skirt. She added layers of Pearls & Flowers on her Neck, Fun Bracelets & Nude Wedge Pumps.
Rox looks like she stepped off a Runway in a Sexy, Stunning Look of many trends: Feathers, Purple, Peplum, Leather, Floppy Hat, Booties. But she manages to mix & match them all into one Girly, Fun, Sexy, Dressy Outfit. That Black Studded Clutch is Beautiful & matches her Boots perfectly.
Heather's 1st Outfit is a little Mustard (Pencil Skirt) and a little Ketchup (Pumps & Belt) all paired with a Simple Tee in Black+White Stripes.
Heather's 2nd Outfit is pairing a Silky White Blouse with Black Trim, tucked into Simple Black Trousers with Black Booties. She adds a Circle Black & Silver Necklace & her own Silver Hoops.
Sarah finally got to wear her Free eShakti Dress in White/Beige/Mustard Color-block. She added a Textured, Short-Sleeve Navy Cardi, a Beautiful White/Gold Statement Necklace & Matching Bangle. She finished it off with Strappy, Taupe Stilettos & a Black Bow on her Ponytail.

Jenny chose Flowers on her Skirt & Studs, plus a Bow on her Blouse to wear for Easter, while looking Cute, Colorful & Girly. She added a nice Nude Tote with some Black Trim & a Beautiful Side Braid.
Rebecca's 1st Outfit is a Sassy & Springy Color-block Look she chose for a Date Night. She paired an Elbow-Sleeve Coral Blouse with Turquoise Cropped Skinnies, Nude Espadrille Pumps & lots of Pretty Jewelry. She carried a Silver Envelope Clutch to finish off.
Rebecca's 2nd Outfit featured a Spring, Floral Dress from Old Navy. She styled it 3 different ways on her Blog but I loved it best paired with the Bright Yellow Cardigan & Nude Sandals with the Chunky Heels. This would have been great for Easter, also.
Kayla looks so Proper, Chic & Church-ready in this ensemble of White Pants, Neutral Tweed Blazer & Light Mint Top which she accessorized with a Long Mint Necklace & a Short Coral/Turquoise Necklace. She carried a Turquoise Envelope Clutch & finished off with Cognac Wedge Pumps.
Lindsey was out of her comfort zone when she wore these Bright Cobalt Pants with a Sweater featuring a Large Pink Flower. But she realized it was a Great Outfit & I did too.
Elle called this outfit Floral Fiesta and she is Right! Those Wide, Breezy, Colorful, Light Pants are Gorgeous (on HER - I must add), even better with the Coral Jacket & those Stunning Nude & Yellow Platform Stilettos. I adore her Yellow Bag, also.
Ginny wore her New, Cobalt, Hi-lo Skirt with the Classic Black Blazer, Classic Black Pumps & a Black +White Stripped Tee which goes with anything. She added a Pewter Envelope Clutch.
Jill's Easter Outfit was in Beautiful Pastels: the palest of Pink Skinny Pants, the lightest Dove Gray Camisole with Matching Beautiful Pashmina, White Python Clutch, Gorgeous White Watch, Aqua Bracelet & Nude Stiletto Pumps.

Londyn wears this Gorgeous Nicole Richie Dress to a Wine tasting. It has an Exotic, Peacock Print & Sheer Black, Long Sleeves. She chooses Fabulous Black Stilettos to complete her look.
Sherry's Color of her Top is called Bali Blue and I love it. She paired it with Python Skinny Crops, Sexy White Strappy Stilettos & Beautiful Gold Jewelry. She added a Pearl & Gold Statement Necklace & some Fresh Mint Nail Polish.
Shanna mixes her Blue+White Prints in a Polka Dot Chambray Button-Down & Floral Bucket Skirt. She adds in some Orange with a Gorgeous Handbag & Cone-Heel Pumps.
Bonnie who is a Tiny Petite Girl can do double Volume both on the top (Peplum) & bottom (Full Skirt). She also wears a Pearl & Gold Statement Necklace & small matching Studs.

Janise wore a Donna Morgan, Mini White Dress with Black Dots paired with a Skinny Python Coral Belt tied in a Fun way.

Laura's Easter Look included a Black+White Stripe Tee tucked into a Gorgeous Water-color, Tulip, Mini Skirt, worn with Cognac Stilettos, Pretty Dangly Bracelets & Gorgeous Curls.
My Own Favorite Look of the Week:
I chose this Sweater Dress paired with the Classic Vest because it was Unexpected and a Look I hadn't tried before. I love that the dress has a Lace Print and it's in a Nice Shade between a Blue and a Purple. I also wore Floral-Print Tights which have these fluttery flowers that match the Butterfly on my Headband.
P.S. Linking up with Patti for Visible Monday.
