Bright colors for Spring

I like colors that POP!, which is why this is one of my preferred shirts. It has just the right amount of color with lace.

Also it goes so well with my pearls.

Can you believe I found this bright pink shirt at Value Village – Love!

Giving Lilacs a little Sugar!

Lilacs are one of my favorite spring flowers, they are so fragrant.

This past weekend I foraged a bunch and made them into lilac sugar. This quick and easy recipe is a great base for a sugar scrub, a simple syrup, a delicious ingredient for baking, and nice in tea!

To see how easy it is to make check out my short video below;

Thank you for watching!

Lilacs & floral print

With the spring warmth all the lilacs are out and about. Which gave me a great excuse to wear floral print.

I paired the dress with some playful pink and gold bangles a friend brought me back from India. The necklace was given to me from a different friend who also went to India and brought it back. I might just have to go to India myself and buy all the jewelry!

Tishynah Buffalo Designs had bold patterns & combined soft and strong fabrics. The bead work on the necklaces and earrings were my favorite accessories of the night.

Tounkara had a contrast of light summer dresses in vivid colors with necklaces that had strong cuts to them that added nicely to the patterns.

Shankar Couture’s sparkle and glitter looked great on the runway. Each dress had its own detailed pattern done with bead work.

Creations Youd rocked it with beautifully patterned hoods. The flowing capes made an entrance – I need one!
