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?

Cheers to the 90's

Even though it's 2014, I swear when I go into stores like Forever 21 and H&M, it's like I'm right back in my childhood. It's like the 90's have returned, denim skirts, acid wash everything, overalls, crop tops, mix and match separates and even keds, these are all things I grew up wearing. Now they've all come back in style again.

Anyways, if you haven't taken notice of it yourself then just head on over to your local mall and check out the 90's revival. But for many of us it's a little too much. So instead it's a better idea to just take a small element of the 90's trend and work it into your everyday look, to keep from seeming like you're trying to hard. 

I vowed I would never tie another shirt or sweatshirt around my waist after about the 10th grade, but I guess I'm breaking that vow. Because I actually find if paired with a chic pair of faux leather shorts it can really work. And don't forget to add some sparkle and girly accessories to pull this look together and keep it from looking like you were just too lazy to hold your shirt.

Whiten Your Day

It only feels right that for my first blog post back, I share one of my favorite Spring and Summer looks, white on white. I don't know about you guys but it's already been well over 90 degrees here in So Cal, so an all white look always seems to keep me cool. 
Jacket: Abercrombie & Fitch [from my college days, similar here & here] | Top: Forever 21 [similar here] | Jeans: American Eagle [similar here] | Shoes: Zara | Bag: Phillip Lim for Target | Sunnies: Ray-Ban [vintage, current version here] | Watch: Michael Kors | Necklace: Groopdealz | Bracelet: Lulu's 
A tip for creating your on all white outfit is try mixing textures, like I did with the eyelet peplum. It keeps the look fresh and effortless. Best part is we all have various white pieces in our closets, so it's an easy and cheap look to create. You don't need to go out and find trendy pieces that either you never wear again or only lasts a season. White will always be in.

Out with the Old & In with the New

I'm Baaaack!
After the long hiatus, I'm very excited to announce that I'm back at this blogging business. With that said, I've decided to give Pigtails & Pearls a makeover and introduce you all to A Sprinkle of Style. Why the name change? Well these past 6 months have been a very long and stressful one which is partially why I took a break. So I decided that since my life finally feels like it's back on track it was time to give the blog a refresh too. 

And don't forget to update our web address since it's changed too. We're now sprinkleofstyleblog.blogspot.com.
I hope you all enjoy what's to come! And check back tomorrow for my first outfit post!!! Yipee!
