Spring Bags & Puppies

Happy Wednesday, loves!

Today my girl Shannon from Upbeat Soles and I are teaming up to show you two ways to style your bright Spring bags.  First of all, let me tell you how much I adore Shannon and her style.  She is such a boho babe and I know you will fall in love with her blog.  You can find all of her outfit deets here.

Who doesn't love a bright crossbody or tote for Spring?!  It can add such a needed pop of color (I love the contrast of Shannon's pink bag against the white denim) or create a fun rainbow effect like in my look.

Do you know what I love about this Gotham Decay tote even more than the vibrant lavender hue and spacious interior?!  The fact that it is completely animal and cruelty free.  Yep, I know.  Amazing quality and nobody got hurt.  As a vegetarian and fur-mom (and someone who sobs uncontrollably at the ASPCA commercials...seriously, I cannot watch them) I completely applaud the GD brand for giving fashionistas the option of a "better leather" bag.  I love having the option of sporting a Gotham Decay tote, clutch or cuff (did you see the matching cuff? adorable, right?) and saving a life.  And I know my two peanuts do too.  You are going to swoon over the Gotham Decay collection right now.  I already sport this clutch on the regular (see here) and I have my wishlist stocked with this structured tote and a fun hologram bag.

I know there is a lot going on in this look, but I feel that it still jives.  This blouse from The Girl That Loves is sups bright and cheery (again, I cannot tell you guys how obsessed I am with this company.  Everything in their line calls out to me in my sleep) and I finally got out of my hair down-parted slightly to the right-loose curls hairstyle with a fun new accessory from Gina Made It.  This sparkly, knotted hairband is just what this blogger needed for these crazy windy Spring days, and it helps get me out of my hairstyle slumps.  

Thanks for staying with me.  Enjoy your hump day!
