Fruit Punch {with a side of Macaroons}

Equipment Blouse. borrowed Ani Lee Skirt. Banana Republic Clutch. Vintage Bracelets.

I admit, this fruit punch-esque colored outfit was a little bold for a Saturday afternoon, but it sure made me excited to wear vibrant colors this spring. I finally bit the bullet and ordered this Equipment blouse in sangria (I first blogged about it here). Let me tell you these blouses live up to their reputation. I now want one in every color.

Spring can't start soon enough.
Sun and spring colors is definitely something to be excited about.
Looks great (and I am not craving macaroons hehe)

Great outfit. I was debating on whether or not to buy that shirt as well. I have it in white and love it. Probably should order it in Sangria as well!

I was just eyeing that blouse on shopbop and I couldn’t decide if I wanted the Sangria long sleeved number or the tank version in hot pink. Either way both are perfect for the color blocking trend this spring. I plan on wearing my colors with leopard as well :)

Valerie said...

Oooh, I've been obsessing over that Equipment blouse for a while too. I LOVE the pairing of brights with the leopard clutch. And I could totally go for a macaroon or two right about now.

Elizabeth said...

I love my Equipment blouse! I also am thinking I need one in every color - especially that bright red! So fun!

Becca [Free Honey] said...

I love this sherbet colored outfit! You have a lot of sass going on, hope the Saturday afternoon lived up to the outfit. I couldn't justify taking the plunge on an equipment blouse, but I did find one at bloomingdales (by Aqua) that I think gets the job done pretty well. Although that leopard blouse you were tweeting about this morning was just too good!

Helena from BrooklynBlonde said...

Um.... one word - AMAZING!

and I also lusting for an Equipment blouse in a pretty pattern! Hopefully soon after I cross some other "important" things off my never-ending wish list!
