Color Cult

This is a March of the Bloggers guest post!

"Color Cult"
by Calley of The Cult of Style


***

Yesterday was the first "official" day of Spring but we are already making our way into late Spring and early summer styles in the fashion world, which can only mean one thing... color, color, color!

If you're still in your fall and winter mutes then it's imperative you take a look at what our guest blogger Calley has to say today! One of my favorite blogger trends of late is inspiration posts and Calley does a lot of this over at her fabulous blog. Full of inspirations, photo collages, and more, her blog always has an eye for the beautiful and striking. She's here with a few of her amazing collages to pay homage to the necessity of color in our lives.

COLOR takes precedent over everything this season.  Whether you make unexpected combinations or dress in tonal colors, as long as your outfit packs a punch of color, you are all set! Our favorite colors this Spring are all shades of lavender, mint, yellow, chartreuse, and pink!! We love them in pastels AND neons and especially mixed with neutrals!  WE HEART COLOR!! xo, the cult of style

My personal favorite color of the season is MINT! What's your favorite color right now?

This is a March of the Bloggers guest post!

It's Monday, so if you're bored and stuck in the office, we've got a little treat for your break today! With me here is Shannon, a blogger that I look up to greatly. Not only does Shannon have fabulous style advice on her blog, but she's got some amazing accomplishments to go with it. Shannon has almost 800 followers on her blog and some pretty big sponsors of her page. Once you see her post, you'll see why...

Hello Frock Stock readers!  I am Shannon from Shannon Heart's.  I am so excited to be here today.  I am a California girl who loves fashion, food, friends and blogging!  I blog about personal style, fashion, photography and all the beautiful things that inspire me along the way.   



The warm days of spring are approaching quickly, and I couldn't be more excited.  Spring fashion is all about flirty dresses, pretty colors and feminine prints.  My favorite color trend of the season is pastels.  Pastels are soft and pretty and so easy to wear.   You can mix and match different pastel shades, or wear one shade from head to toe.  My favorite shades of the season are peach and mint.  I just can't get enough of pastels!  How about you?

Thank you so much for having me!  Much love to all of you.  Please pop over and visit me at Shannon Heart's.

I can't agree more with Shannon. I LOVE pastels and I'm so glad they're in style right now. A lot of my vintage items are pastel so I'm busting out quite a few right now. I definitely think the "IT" pastel right now is mint, so if you invest in any pastel this spring, that's a big one to look out for!


Don't forget to check out Shannon's blog and tell her what you think of pastels in the comment box for a chance to win some free jewelry!

Isn't SBM's look gorgeous? The thing I like most about the "pop of color" trend is that it's not just for girls who call themselves "trendy." It's a really easy style to pick up on and can act as a transition and learning experience for girls who aren't quite comfortable yet to rainbow-paint their wardrobe. You'll still feel safe in your much-loved LBD but get to feel a bit daring as well with your favorite little color moment included!

Now show SBM some love! Visit her blog and comment, comment, comment on how you feel about her post and this trend! Remember, comments = free jewelry!
