Ever since I can remember, I’ve been drawn to timeless, classic styles. One of my earliest style inspirations growing up was my great-grandmother. She had an incredible sense of style. Her ability to look refined and polished came from her choice of carefully selected accessories, as most of her outfits consisted of simple silk blouses and skirts. I find myself thinking of her every time I shop for accessories, and this silk floral scarf from Gal Meets Glam Collection was no exception. The delicate pink floral print instantly reminded me of her as one of her favorite colors was pink. {something else I inherited ;)}
A silk scarf is an instant way to add a touch of elegance to an outfit. It adds a textural interest and is a simple way to showcase your personality. They’re incredibly versatile, too – wear it on your handbag {like I did here}, tie it in your hair, or around your neck. I like this particular scarf because it’s 30×30″ which makes it large enough to drape over your shoulders for an effortless look.
I wore a pastel pleated skirt from H&M (similar style here) and a crisp, white button-up blouse with my scarf. The purple and pink tones in the scarf added interest to my outfit without feeling overbearing or out of place. This is an outfit that can easily be worn to the office.
We experienced a few cool, rainy days in Florida earlier this week which had me reaching for my trench coat. A classic trench coat is a wardrobe staple, especially for spring. It’s a timeless piece that can be worn year after year. Not only is it a rainy day essential, but it also adds a touch of sophistication to any outfit.
