Les Femme MODA: Pastel colors "how-to"


blazer: jcrew. t-shirt: thanks to stylemint ( completely sold out. similar+similar+LOVE). jeans: jbrand. bag: thanks to marc jacobs.  jewelry: jcrew, jared. shoes: jcrew ( on sale!) or  similar.

Navy is one of my new favorites for this season - absolutely perfect addition for pastels and neons. I used to hate navy Ts because after a wash or two they'd get a "lovely" white-ish sheen to them, making it look like they are 100 years old. Which is not a bad thing if going for a vintage look, but when wanting a chic, casual but polished look, it won't do. 

The material is everything. Silk is best - silk Ts are little piece of heaven for the body. But when can't readily cash out $$$+, a mix of cotton with modal will do the trick while still allowing the garment to "breathe"! ( because who wants a polyester blend-like feeling when it's 100 degrees outside) 
You can trust me on that one.

PS : don't forget the sale discount - 20% off everything on the site for one more day!
