Chanel "Chaine Or" - The New Pastel for Spring

Gold is the new pastel for spring!

There's nothing like the color gold, especially in a shimmery Chanel nail polish.  Chanel has always been the trend setter for polish shades, and their "Chaine Or" doesn't disappoint. It's shimmery gold color is the perfect compliment to any outfit, and it's my new color for spring.  I'm officially replacing my go to spring pastels with gold! 

Naturally, when I saw this gorgeous gold Chanel polish on the fingertips of my Saks Fifth Avenue Sales Clerk; I had to have it right at that second. No....seriously, she ran over to cosmetics and snatched one up for me speedy quick.  I HAD to have it!

I have gold around my entire house in so many different rooms, in fact he walls and ceiling in my formal dining room are even gold.  There's just something about it that makes everything it touches a perfect 10.   A Rolex watch? Yep, I want the gold Presidential.  Anything jewelry? Thanks, I'll take the gold piece.

Say goodbye to those spring pastels and hello, gold!

My Favorite Spring Shoe by Ferragamo

I can't say enough about the Bermuda Cutout Jelly Wedge Pump in Macaroon Gelato from the spring 2016 Ferragamo collection.  I am seriously obsessed with this shoe and have worn it nearly everyday since I purchased the pair last week at Saks.

The shoe initially caught my eye as I was breezing through the shoe department about a week earlier on a work collaboration with Saks corporate.  I thought it might be a bit rude of me to be late because I was trying on shoes, right? So, I made a quick trip back last week and finally bought them!  With 4 kids and a full time job, I can't always find the time to get the items that I need.  (Notice how I use the word need.)

With their signature golden logo buckle and 1" demi wedge heel, its the perfect shoe for almost any occasion.  They're so comfortable and I'm able to wear them for hours at a time without any foot pain whatsoever.  Ballet flats often hurt my feet soon after putting them on, and I haven't experienced anything like that with this shoe.  I hate to compromise my style for comfort, so this shoe is like hitting the jackpot.

I've worn them with a white on white combo in the form of jeans and a sweater paired with a brown Hermes belt.  I also wore them this past weekend with some distressed boyfriend jeans, a white t-shirt and a tan colored, cashmere scarf for a casual evening dinner. I love shoes that double as an outfit accessory, and these Ferragamo's accomplish that perfectly.  I think I just might be buying another pair as a backup!
