4. Betsey Johnson Snake Hinged Bangle sold @ Piperlime
5. Nine West Ambitious Pump sold @ Zappos
6. Boyfriend Jeans in Vintage Blue sold @ Loft

Destroyed (distressed) denim, floral print, and leather are all hot trends right now, so I thought I would group them together for a look. I think the floral print does a nice job of offsetting the distressed look of the denim, and leather gives it a rocker, fun look! What do you think? Any of these trends on your wish list for spring/summer?

10. Chinese Laundry Danger Zone Pump sold @ Piperlime

In my closet, I do not own item with a polka dot print. For the most part, I am not a print person; however, when I saw this look and this one, too, I started to give polka dots some consideration. Recently, I found some great polka dot pieces at J. Crew Factory, and I thought I would mix up some prints and colors with the polka dots for a classic yet playful look. What do you think?

Find: Betsey Johnson Pumps

I love Betsey Johnson's fun, quirky style... I found these pumps and thought I had to style an outfit around them. Since the pumps have so much color (pink & yellow), I opted for a neutral black top and added a little pop of color with the fun, circular clutch. Also, I thought this was a cool bib necklace.

Look for Less: Leopard Print & Leather Skirt

This look of Ashley Greene's is one of my favorites. I love leopard print, and I really like how it is paired with a pop of red, and the addition of the camel colored leather skirt. When I spotted this faux leather skirt at Piperlime and the great sale at Express, I thought I would put together this look for less…

How to Wear: Pencil Skirt

When I wear basic colors like white and black, I like to add a pop of color. I typically wear a lot of neutrals, so color is a way to make an outfit more exciting. For those like me that shy away from too much color, I tried to put together two combinations that added just enough pop of color.

Topshop Grid Print Panel Midi Skirt sold @ Nordstrom

For this look, I paired the grid patterned skirt with a classic white button (an essential in every wardrobe). I added a boyfriend cardigan in black and some studded bracelets. For a pop of color, I added the candy pink suede pumps. I am not a big pink person, but I think these are a fun color, and I like how pink pairs with white and black.

Vince Camuto Harty Pump sold @ Nordstrom
Cara Accessories Studded Bangles sold @ Nordstrom
Softest Boyfriend Cardis sold @ Old Navy
Three-quarter Sleeve Stretch Perfect Shirt sold @ J. Crew

For this look, I kept it simple with a satin trim cami (another wardrobe essential and the ones from The Limited are great. If you have not tried them, I would highly recommend them!) and black pumps. I added a square necklace in gold, which mimics the grid pattern in the skirt. (Note: The Limited always has great necklaces, for reasonable prices.) For a pop of color, I added a tile blue cardigan, which could also be dressed down with jeans and flats.
