Overalls: Fad or Fab?

With so many new trends constantly arising, we all have to make a choice whether it's worth trying or just leaving it to the Kardashian's to make a fool of themselves in. 
The trend that I'm coveting and I believe is having a major fashion moment right now is, overalls. We all remember these from when we were kids, they weren't the hottest things around but they definitely had their moment. But now we're seeing it popping up in stores, on celebs and bloggers alike. Take a look at how these fashionista's styled their overalls.

I, personally, am kind of obsessed with this piece of clothing. And it's definitely not like the ones I wore as a kid. Instead many brands are making a go at this trend and taking it from just functional to fabulous. Short or long, both seem to be making a comeback and I can't wait to wear my overalls.

Here are some of the overalls I've found during my search for the right pair.

What do you think? Will you be trying this trend?

Steal Her Style: Kate Beckinsale's Color Blocked Outfit

So my inspiration this week comes from the beautiful, Kate Beckinsale. I mean come on, she's gorgeous who wouldn't want to look like her.  And she totally rocked the color blocked trend like nobody's business.

I was able to recreate this look with some great affordable pieces from H&M. While my top is more of an orange then Kate's, it still gives off a great bright summer-y vibe. And it's currently available at H&M for $4.95! Ridiculousness right!? When I saw the price tag I was immediately shocked. And, no it wasn't on sale. It's actually part of their Summer essentials that are starting at $4.95. Pretty amazing if you ask me. 

I also paired this top with a wrap skirt from H&M that I got at the end of last Summer but have only worn once. And it just so happened to be the same color as Kate's. Like Kate, I kept the styling and jewelry simple to really let the color blocked outfit standout on its own. Plus I was taking my daughter on a preschool tour so I didn't want to be jingle jangling while the kids were trying to learn. Which is also why I opted for nude flats instead of  pumps. Walking on a playground in heels wasn't something I felt like trying to do especially when the preschool happened to also be a farm.

I'm loving these bright hues this Summer. How about you? 

Hope you enjoyed this week's style inspiration.
