The first day of spring is tomorrow!! Woohoo! I think I'm more excited to wear bright colors and open toe shoes than anything!

Minty Trend: 3 Accessories for the Cool Girl

Accessories can make or break any outfit, but you should still try to keep it fun and trendy. If you're familiar with various fashion blogs, you've seen these three pieces.

1. First up a double plate waist belt with spiked detail that can be worn with peplum tops and form fitting dresses, available at ASOS.

2. An ear-cuff can add flair to a high ponytail or casual day outfit, available for $15 at Nasty Gal.

3. Mid knuckle rings have been seen on various celebrities, along with style bloggers. This has to be one of my favorite trends, available at The Trend Boutique for $39.

Minty Trend: Mint Green

As you guys know from the title of my blog and color choices, mint green is one of my favorite colors (along with purple). So I decided to do something a bit more fun today. Mint green is a hot color trend for Spring 2013 and I wanted to share a few items that would look great in your wardrobe for the upcoming season. Let me know what you think.

1. Mint Green Polka Dot Silk Dress by Tara Jarmon $441

It's a bit pricey if your a fashionista on a budget like me, but its a classic silohuette and print that can be worn in the years to come. You can add a blazer or cardigan to mature this fun, and flirty look.

2. Marlenee sandals in Mint Green by Steve Madden $100

I adore the simple style of this shoe. This fresh pop of color can make a pair of jeans and and white t-shirt look good.

3. Mint Saffiano Leather Rider Bag by Loeffler Randall $495

Also another pricey buy, but you can always keep an eye out for a sale. I love that this handbag is so structured and clean. The detail on the front and back keeps it youthful.

4. House of Harlow 1960 Pyramid Station Necklace in Mint Green  $75

How cute is this necklace? It's a statement piece without being too overbearing. I love most of Nicole Richie's jewelry, she can do no wrong in my eyes.

5. Sequin Enamel Hinge Bangle from Bloomingdale's. This is such a fun piece of jewelry and it retails for $25. You can spice up your arm party by adding this bangle with your bracelets and/or watch.

Minty Trend: Buckle Ankle Strap Boots

Hey everyone! How was your holiday?

I had an okay Christmas, grateful for family and blessings.

Okay, now for shoes! I have noticed a few street style site's featuring open ankle strap booties, and I'm guessing this will be a hit for 2013! The first photo displays a woman wearing the Balenciaga Buckle Ankle Boot, a very similar version can be found here. I am more for the high heeled ankle strap boot, like the bottom right photo. This particular boot is from Zara and it's on SALE right now for a very reasonable price. Check it out! What do you think of this trend? Are you into it?

Thanks for stopping by!

Minty Trend: Two Tone

Lately I have been seeing this trend evolve and although it might be super simple, that's what I love about it. Black and white are two very classic colors and they obviously go well together. Below King B (Beyonce) ;) and Kim Kardashian show us how they wear this two tone trend. Here and here are a few style options for the fashionista's like me who like to get the look without dishing out too much "Guap" (cue Big Sean) haha! Hope you guys are having a great week.

Minty Trend: Knee-High Socks

Hey guys, I hope all is well!

Don't get me wrong I like the autumn season, beautiful leaves and pumpkin donuts and lattes, but I don't care for the cold air. I would rather wear shorts, denim shirts, and dresses without layering. Too much layering tends to make me look frumpy, not a good look. But since I live in New Jersey, it get's fairly cold. So if you're like me, here is a trend that will help keep you warm without doing too much layering and still keep you stylish.
