Outfit Post: {Pink & Blue for Spring!}
I’ve noticed a pattern in my pictures that I am incapable of looking at the camera. Legit. Every single picture I took when I was looking at the camera, my eyes were closed! Apparently I like trying to be mysterious by looking down. Is it working? Probably not. I need to work on my ability to keep these damn eyes OPEN!
Note to self: never stand in direct sunlight, or you could be mistaken for a ghost. Seriously, where is spring?! My ghostly complexion is starting to freak me out. In these pictures it may look nice and sunny, but trust me, I was freezing (there were some serious goose-bump pictures in this round of pictures).
So I’m not in love with this outfit (the bagginess of the shirt with these jeans gives me an odd shape), but I am a fan of the combination of pink and blue. I LOVE putting pink and blue together, especially royal blue and fuchsia (the colour of my lipstick). I love the mix of two such deep and vibrant colours. I also wore my new pink shoes, new pink earrings from Modern Mix Boutqiue (5$ off for WIB readers!), and just to be even more crazy, I added pink lipstick. Pink is apparently the colour of this spring, which I’m totally going to embrace (huge pink fan over here…the colour, not the singer). It’s so feminine and pretty, which is always the look I strive for when getting dressed. This was supposed to be a very laid back, girly kind of look. What do you think? Mission accomplished?

That’s so funny! My eyes are close pretty often when I take pictures, specially if the flash was used. You could believe how hard my wedding photography had to work to make sure the pictures looked perfect. Anyway, I love the blue top and you look cute!!! Thanks for visiting my blog!

Hey Andrea, I never thought about wearing pink and blue together. It works! Thanks for the inspiration. Btw, I love the first photo, do you mind telling me how you did it? Have a great weekend.

Hi Jo! Well I use photoshop to do editing like the first photo, but you can probably do it on any online free picture editor (I sometimes still use Pixlr). So I made the picture black and white. In photoshop I do that by going to going to “layer” and then “add new adjustment layer” and then I click black and white. Then if you click your paint brush you can colour in whatever part of the picture you want to be in colour. It’s really easy, but I think it looks cool. Glad you like it!
