Can you believe I am color blocking again? It's still very new to me but I am loving it! I love these shades together. I think they compliment each other so well.Be sure to check out Kileen's color brigade for more color blocking inspiration. This H & M top is a million years old (okay several years ago). I believe it was my very first H & M purchase ever! I never wear it because it's quite low cut but I do love the cute neck tie and bright color.
I was really drawn to this purse when it first came out online and as soon as it went on sale, I snatched it up! See it on Vicky here. If you are looking to re-create this look, it's super simple! Just find any red blouse or top and a pink pencil skirt or pleated skirt and a bright red bag and you are set!

Have you tried red and pink together?
P.S. If anyone bought the talbot gemstone t-strap sandals in champagne size 5 and you don't want them or returned them, can you please let me know!? I received mine and they are two different sizes (sz 5 and 7). I didn't open the box completely until recently :( Lesson learned!
