Before we get to this week’s topic of choice, neon, we have some sad, but also exciting news. Carly is no longer with us, but we’re thrilled to welcome Cheryl, from Oh to Be a Muse, to our Monday Mingle family. We know you’re going to love her style as much as we do! And while Carly has moved on, she will forever be our friend and we would love it if you would head over to her site and check out her personal styling business. I swear by The Box Service!
Now back to business…I’ve never been one to wait until neon is “trendy” to wear it. As soon as warm weather heads my way, I’m ready to bust out the uber brights! They look so fabulous with white…my other spring and summer go to. So, when I saw this delightful neon open work peasant blouse from Chadwicks, I knew it was right up my alley. You see the trick to wearing neon is to pick a color that goes well with your skin tone…even if you don’t have a summery glow quite yet. Haha!
I chose to pair my new neon number with a white blazer, also from Chadwicks, boyfriend jeans and a pair of oh so comfy Rockport pumps in my happy color…cobalt. Another tip, I don’t steer away from color when styling neon. Go bold or go home right? And cobalt goes so well with citron, which happens to one of my neon favorites.
And enough can’t be said about the white blazer as a spring and summer wardrobe staple. They’re fabulously versatile. Whether you rock them with denim or a flirty frock, they’re so fresh and springy! And I’m loving the Chadwicks linen long length boyfriend blazer and the reason is all in the name…The long length is just so fun with jeans!
Now that you’ve seen what I’ve been wearing, add your own style post to our link up below and head over to our Monday Mingle partners in crime, Momtrends and Oh to Be a Muse, to see the looks they’ve put together!
Disclosure: We received samples for purposes of styling.

The detail on your neon top is wonderful, and the fun design on the cuff of your jeans is the best. I really love that touch.
So happy to be a part of the Monday Mingle linkup family!
