Winter Pastels

By -
I thought most concrete fashion rules were dead, yet as I've been blog hopping the past few weeks I notice commenters clinging tight to the maxim that pastels are for spring. This is odd now that people will actually wear white past labor day. Add some baby blue and you have an Ice Queen look, perfect for January's arctic blast. From there you just need to practice weaving in lilac, butter yellow, pale pink, mint and sherbet orange.

Lovely work, I certainly agree. My current favourite articles of clothing are my ivory leather ankle boots.
Thanks for the features!

Sweet. I just bought a vintage-esque lavender dress (for $4 of course ;).

I can't wear pastels to save my life but maybe my readers can...

I can wear pastels any ol' time of year, but I tend to live in dark jeans and some sort of sweater or dark jacket during the winter. Boring, yes, but also warm. I definitely need to look into some winter pastels :)

What do you think?” She gave me a few tips, wrote a couple “guest posts” and before long became my blogging partner. Together, we built a blog and community I could have never built alone. From the end of 2007 to the end of 2014, Fashion Me Fabulous ran regular content about fun, affordable fashion. Jael and I covered fashion week , reviewed fashion books , wrote about fashion history and did more shopping than seems humanly possible to search out the best clothes and accessories . We explored our personal styles , scoured Etsy for unique creations . I watched every single episode of Project Runway and blogged about it. Jael created an amazing presence on Polyvore . We learned all sorts of things about coding and websites and content and graphic design and so on. (You can tell if you look at

October is the perfect month for anyone who loves a dramatic look. Because of Halloween, you can get away with more in the makeup department than you can the rest of the year. You want to try false eyelashes? Go for it. You want to color your eyebrows? Do it. Color outside the lines with eyeshadow? Why not? Live it up so much in October that people will think black lipstick in November is practically normal.
