I have a confession to make: I’m not too crazy over pastel colors! Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE seeing pastels on others, but somehow they were never really my cup of tea. So when I saw this challenge, I decided it was a time to dig some pastel colors out of my closet and give them a try. I couldn’t resist adding some black to the outfit just to tone the whole pastel thing going on a bit down. And surprisingly, I really liked the end result and might add some new pastel pieces to my closet just in time for spring!

You have a really good skin tone for pastels! I understand what you mean about not being super crazy about them though- I feel like an easter egg. lol however, have you seen Coury’s blog “Fancy Treehouse”? that girl rocks pastels like nobody’s business! Every time! anyway, love your outfit!

I’m not a huge fan of pastels either… but you definitely made them work! I don’t know if I would have ever really thought to pair them with black but I like them so much more like that!! Much more wearable imo!

I feel the same about pastels – i very rarely wear them and always wear bright colours instead. Love your take on pastels though and your new watch is lush!

the pastels are gorgeous loving the flowers!
another question as I subscribe to your blog?
I love the pastel colors and ati you are doing well.
hey want to know how you care for your skin?
kisses = )
I’ve never liked pastels much either! A little too … muted, maybe. Only recently have I started grudgingly incorporating them into a few things. You did well! I like the black! Tones down the dreamy factor just enough.
Wonderfull, love it.
Pastels make me look more white. That`s why i rather not wear it too.
But the combination you wear on this pictures is very beautiful.

Well, pastels suit you very well! The colors go so great with your hair color and skin tone! You look gorgeous. I myself love, love pastels and think I too will definitely be adding some more pastel pieces to my spring wardrobe as well.

I love that you paired the pastels with black to tone it down! The combination looks amazing on you!

You should wear pastels more often Nerris! They look wonderful on you! But it was a smart move to ease into them like you did in this post…

I love those pastel colours, though I think the black might be a little harsh.
Have a nice day!
You are so beautiful. I could resist to black and pastels, but i think this combine really works.

At first I thought you were holding flowers. Are they a part of the scarf? Love the pastel cardi and I love how you used black to tone it down a bit. The color of the cardi suits you.
You look pretty in pastels! I too need to add more pastels to my wardrobe!
You look so pretty! What a great location & outfit!
