Colorblock trend

Colorblock dresses show up in almost every designer's line for Spring 2009 in primary colors and layers. So how to wear this look? Take a few vintage colorful pieces that you own and mix them with new solids. You'll make a colorblock outfit of your own. Choose the darkest color within you color mix and use it for shoes and accessories. It frames your outfit in a quite and sophisticated way.  If you feel like you need inspiration, check out the dresses below.


Colorblock means fun and energy! Follow Legacy of Pearl for sugestions on colorblock accessories and tunics soon.

Here are some more colorblock dresses for every budget!

Mommy and me pajama sets: A DO or DON'T?

I like the cute matching pajamas for mothers and kids. I think they make a great picture, but how likely is that Mommy and Baby/Kid will wear them at the same time? It requires extra care to what you wear at bedtime. Not sure it is that useful in the end. How about you?
