Guest Post ~ All Things Bright & Beautiful

I am SO thrilled to have Aubrey from All Things Bright and Beautiful over on my blog today!
She makes me laugh every morning with her witty sense of humor!  Her blog is definitely a daily read of mine, and I love seeing her take on fashion, decor, and design.  So, please give a warm welcome to Aubrey!

Well *hello* there, dah-lings! Aubrey from All Things Bright and Beautiful here to entertain and amaze you! 

(Maybe not, but just go with it, okay?)

I'm pleased as punch to be with you Fresh and Fancy peeps today, Amy is one of my favorite new blogger buddies! Fabulous eye = Fabulous blog. You can take that to the bank (c:

Anyone who knows me knows that I can talk about just about anything.

And talk A LOT. 

So when Amy asked if I could write about my favorite spring trends, I had to really cut down my list so as not to bore all you nice people to tears...although making people cry is a hobby of mine...ha! Yeah right...unless you're talking about my children, then *guilty* (c:

Okay, enough mindless chatter, here's the skinny on my fave spring trends!

BRIGHT PANTS...fabulous on so many levels...mostly because it gives me license to wear head to toe color!

ARM PARTIES...permission to wear every single one of my favorite bangles and baubles??? YES PLEASE! And including some fantastic statement jewelry in there is a definite plus (c:

PATTERN MIXING...stripes and florals are a pretty good way to go if you want to jump on this bandwagon, and definitely a pretty way to go, too!

FOLD OVER CLUTCHES...these babies have been trending for a while now, but I'm more in love with them than ever! The perfect opportunity for a pop of color, but streamlined and simple, dress it up, dress it down, SO versatile!

And this can be combined with my last fave trend...

TASSELS...is it just me or are these babies showing up *everywhere*??? My favorite is partnered with a gorgeous clutch, but they aren't too shabby on a pair of shoes either!

What about y'all??? Any trends that are making you all twitterpated with Spring???

Thanks for letting me take over today, Amy! You'll never make that mistake again! Ha!
