Little Hot Pink Dress
Happy Tuesday, y’all! Yesterday, as you know, we talked about the value of having a little white dress in your closet. Well, today, let’s talk about the fun of having a little pink dress in your closet! And I’m not talking about a bashful blush in this case. I’m talking about a bold, bright magenta!
When wearing this vibrant color, how can you not feel confident and empowered? You certainly can’t be a shrinking violet when wearing hot pink! I find that color truly has the power to change my moods. And this happy color is bound to turn any frowns upside down! Indeed, your mood and the moods of those around you are sure to turn cheerful and positive with a glimpse of this shade.
I have a lot of bright pink in my closet, but I realized none of it was pregnancy friendly. So, I was thrilled to find this easy-to-wear, versatile, fun Trina Turk dress. As a side note, when I first gained an interest in fashion years ago, Trina Turk was one of the first brands to which I gravitated. The bold colors and prints and reasonable price point made it the perfect first foray into designer fashion for me.

Sachin & Babi Statement Earrings
Now, moving on to a different aspect of the outfit, let’s talk about these earrings… Surely, you know we are all about statement earrings this season! Did you see the earrings I wore with yesterday’s look? Well, since the beginning of the statement earring trend, Sachin & Babi’s earrings have been at the top of my list! They come in a full rainbow of colors. I’ve had an ivory pair that I’ve worn over and over, as evidenced here and here. And now, I have this beautiful rose pair.
Designed in New York and handmade in Mumbai, these earrings are truly works of art. Indeed, each pair requires about 26 hours of handiwork. And the final product has over 3500 glass beads per pair!
