A little neon in my life..

Happy Monday!

Hope you all had a great weekend!  Hubby and I celebrated our anniversary (a week late) by going out to dinner and seeing "The Great Gatsby" on Saturday night.  I really liked the movie even though the reviews weren't so fab.  It was creative and the acting was great.  I'll admit, I never read the book in high school (even though I was suppose to...pretty sure I at least read some of the Cliff Notes) so I can't say whether or not the movie stuck to the story line in the book very well but it was entertaining and well done I thought.  It even kind of makes me want to read the book now!

Onto a little fashion...

Neon colors are here to stay (at least this year) which I'm excited about since I happen to love these bright neon orange ankle length jeans I picked up from Gap Factory last year:

I know neon isn't for everyone but you can always wear as little or as much of it as you want....whatever you feel comfortable with.  I think one of the best ways to introduce neon into your wardrobe in a more subdued way if you're a little hesitant, is through jewelry.  There are tons of great neon pieces out there right now at all different price points that are totally on trend:

Are you into wearing neon?  Or does it take you back to your younger years in a bad way?

Have a great day!

    I LOVE the neon trend. I was a little slow to get on board but have picked up several pieces for summer including a highlighter yellow tee that I'm wearing today.

    Love this look. I picked up the neon pink/orange jeans when they went on sale. Hope they will still be in next season since I can't wear them until then since I pregnant. Just couldn't pass them up for $50. Also, I looked high and low for the sandals at various Targets and even though they said in stock for the locations they were not in the stores. My size 5/6 is no longer available online.

      Melissa...I checked my Target 3 times before realizing they were actually hanging on the back wall...not in boxes on the shelves. If you haven't already looked on the wall try there!!

    I want to see The Great Gatsby, see if it lives up to the version with Redford and Farrow!
