Pop of Blue
Today’s Style Perspective challenge hosted by the Blended Blog was to create a Graduation Look. I decided to keep things casual with a look that would carry you straight from a graduation ceremony to a graduation party.
If you happen to be the mom of the grad then you also might choose a bold color to represent the school colors. The trick for me to wearing a flowy top without feeling like it adds weight to my frame is wearing a slim fit pant.
My top has been in my closet for 4 maybe 5 years and the color must be in my palette because every time I wear it I receive comments. I did add this fun new clutch from Stella & Dot which sadly is temporarily out of stock.
I’m also loving the wrap bracelet I also picked up from Stella & Dot. A friend talked me into co-consulting with her and we split the initial order. Win…win! I love all the new pieces I picked up.
Colorful, comfortable with a touch of dressy casual and this look is a winner in my book! What do you think?

OMG! I have that same exact blouse!! And I bought it before I ever knew you!! I normally wear mine with white pants, too, but I don't wear it as much because I feel like a true 80's girl because the neckline is too big. It likes to hang off my shoulder.
Gorgeous! Love this color of blue on you!

Blue really is a great color for you! I love the bright cobalt blue paired with the bright white, too! So fresh and summery and eye-catching! I think this is a perfect graduation outfit!

I love cobalt blue and white together! Looking good!
I love, love, love this outfit on you! You have the best style, can I just come steal all of your clothes 🙂 That clutch is perfection, although I've never really jumped on the clutch train, mostly because I am forgetful and would most likely forget I was holding it and put it down somewhere random 🙂
Love those wedges! Such a pretty Spring look!

I just love cobalt and white together!. One of my posts for next week features these colors. Also love how the striped clutch and floral wedges give great visual interest to the solids.
Love the fun top and those floral shoes with it!

This whole outfit is a winner! I love the floral shoes and and flowyness of this top! Great look! Thanks for linking up with us.
Thanks so much Deena! These shoes have been amazing and I definitely have gotten my money's worth on both these items. Hope you are having a great week!
Thanks so much for hosting Dawn Lucy!
I am going to be so sad when these shoes have expired!! Thanks for hosting Alice!
This clutch is my new fave accessory! Hope you are having a great week!
Thanks Ruth! These shoes have definitely been one of my top purchases ever.
It's ridiculous Sarah….I've all of a sudden fallen in love with a clutch but I really only use them when I'm going out for a date night or with my girlfriends. They are so perfect to make a little statement and for my phone and lipstick but I have to have way more junk on an average day!
Thanks so much Amy!! Hope you are having a great week.
Thanks Shelbee! Isn't it funny how it's so obvious when you wear "your color" ?!! Hope you are having a great week.
haha, I know right?! Currently there might be more kid toys in my purse that functional items for myself…
Love this outfit Hun, the colour is super and one I love wearing too.
Gorgeous XOXO! Would love if you stopped by to share with #LINKUPWITHLISA @ http://www.beauty101bylisa.com/2016/05/linkupwithlisa-50-my-favorite-black.html
I love this gorgeous look! The cobalt blue is so pretty, and I love the fun striped clutch too!
Great look! Funny, I dont have much cobalt in my closet, but it is one that people say I should wear. I agree about you! YOu look great in this blue, and I love the flow and how graceful the top looks on you!
Thanks for linking up with TH Tuesday

Thank you so much! It's definitely a great power color right? So sorry for the tardy response.
I bet you really would look great in this color Jess! I always feel good when I wear this top and then sometimes see pictures and think it may just not be the most flattering but I just can't give it up!
Thanks so much Shea….so sorry for the tardy response!
Thanks so much for the linkup invite Lisa! I will definitely stop by. So sorry I'm just now seeing this. 🙂
For real?? I love this top and I always feel good when I wear it but often when I see a picture I am like ewww.
Thanks so much Lauren!
THanks Lauren! Hope you are having a super week.
These floral wedges are the best and I could kick myself for not buying a second pair last summer!! They are just about to break and I need to get them to the little shoe guy to see if they are salvageable. So sorry for the late response…not sure how I missed it. 🙂
