Fabulous Fashion Friday: Block Party!

Oh, the lovely cherry blossoms signal the time is near to head outside for a barbecue with friends and neighbors, but what to wear?  How about pairing bright solid tops with color blocked totes for a casual, confident party feel. And whether you're bringing the desert or the beverage,  you'll look fun and festive along the way.

Strawberry Pie
 
Pink & black block-dyed modal top by T-Party (made in USA), $29
Eclipse hot-pint & tan block print handbag, $52
C-Zone pink infinity scarf, $18
(shown with model's own jeans and booties)
Beautiful color-blocking done in an abstract painted way.  
Simple tan color blocking  adds richness to this ultra pretty-and-pink bag.
Tying a scarf to your bag is so French!  It adds a bright pop of color
(and a little insurance in case it gets cold)

Blueberries and Cream
Lani Triangle Tunic (in Cream), $26
Tosca block print tote (in cream & blue), $48
Look by M, blue sparkly infinity scarf, $22
(shown with skinny belt, jeggings & lace-up booties)
This tote is so roomy you could pack it as an overnight bag, just in case!
This is a fun & different way to wear an infinity scarf by simply draping it from your neck and letting it fall down your back.
A creamy white top is the perfect canvas for deep blue jewelry, like this extra long Lapis Lazuli pendant by Dangling by A. Thred.
Available exclusively at Ponytail Jewelry Studio, $56.
This look is so fresh!

Creme de Menthe
Lani Triangle Tunic (in Mint), $26
Tosca Geoprint Tote (in cream & black), $48
(shown with skinny Belt, jeggings & lace-up booties)
We love how the skinny belt helps connect the block-print handbag to the top.
Downside: you can't put your bag down, or half the outfit is gone!
Nothing says "springtime" like sparkling crystal quartz.  These sterling silver beauties were handmade by LM Inspired and are available at Ponytail Jewelry Studio, $42. 
Don't forget the bubbly!
