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.

Top: H&M [available in store, similar here] | Skirt: H&M [old, skirt in similar color here] | Shoes: J. Crew Factory | Necklace: Lotus Blossom Design | Sunnies: Ray-Ban
