When Pantone named Serenity and Rose Quartz the 2016 Colors of the Year, I was a little taken a back! I feel as though they totally stole that color combo from me. My wedding colors were “dusty blue” and “blush pink” and I feel like they saw my wedding, loved it and decided to take credit for my idea... ;-)

In all seriousness, these two colors are absolutely amazing and together they are so chic, romantic and soft. I normally like to stick to wearing neutral shades or cool tones and accessorize with a pretty color or two. That way, you don't go overboard with too much color and you are left looking chic & classy. Here are the 3 ways you can incorporate Serenity and Rose Quartz into your wardrobe:

1. Handbags

Your bag is the perfect way to add color to your look! I have the Kate Spade Tote in Pink Blush and every time I wear it, I get endless compliments because of its unique and pretty color! I also love to use it as my travel bag because you can fit pretty much anything in it! The inside has three pockets to help you organize your things and keep everything together. Below are some of my favorite picks:

My blue suede shoes!

I am currently obsessed with my new Steve Madden Carrson Heels in Blue Suede. The color is absolutely gorgeous and unique and I love the chunky heel. They are perfect for spring. 

My favorite heels for this season!
