Bardot Style for Spring

If you remember this post, you already know that I'm obsessed with bardot tops. Although I'm wearing a romper, it's off the shoulder nonetheless so of course I'm obsessed with it. As predicted, everything off the shoulder is trending once again and it is EVERYWHERE!

Honestly, if you purchase this style of top, I would purchase a size larger or better yet, try it on to see how it fits. The reason being is because the elastic in the 'neckline' lifts up and it can be a bit annoying....then again it can double as a boatneck neckline and honestly, that is my favorite neckline! :D

I told you I was reaching for my Baby Tory bag for Spring! I can't help it! It's so cute and this bright mint hue is everything. I love to pair more than two bright colors with my minimal outfit just to give it a more happy and fun look! Like my personality! :P

Can we just talk about this boater hat??? It was only $55 and it's from on of my favorite Australian brands, Lack of Color. Speaking of Australia, they are on a role with fashion and the latest trends! I'm obsessed with damn near every Australian label on Instagram! There will be a post on that coming soon so stay tuned. ;)

Thanks for reading!

P.S. You should totally visit Suwanne one day if you ever decide to visit Atlanta for a few days. It's so beautiful!

Currently Craving: Pinafore Dresses

1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6

I am mad obsessed with these dresses and have been for a while. We were blessed with trend about 50 years ago, and I just want to take this moment to thank the 60s for this wonderful style of dress......THANK YOU! :D

The Pinafore can be styled with tops like this and this but if you don't wanna go full blown Mod, you could wear just a plain t-shirt underneath or even a really cute mock/turtle neck top or sweater. Personally, I feel that Pinafores should part of the 'Essentials' list because of how many different ways you could style it and it is timeless. Flat ankle booties, strappy or 'barely there' pumps, pointed flats and heels, thigh high boots, wedges, sneakers (please don't...) I mean come on the possibilities are endless, guys. I don't know about you, but I'm racking up. :)

So tell me....how would you style this Mod-tastic classic???

Pantone 2016: Rose Quartz + Serenity

Happy New Year, lovebugs! I gotta tell ya, the past couple of months have been wild and I'm just glad to be back to blogging once again!

If you don't already know (or if you can't tell from the title) Pantone has chosen not one....but two beautiful hues for 2016: Rose Quartz and Serenity! It's no secret that Rose Quartz will be worn to death by everyone in the world because....I mean who doesn't love a soft, blue toned pink?! Not to mention last year's trending color, Marsala, had everyone going nuts over rosy pinks and Mauves.
Although Serenity is my favorite out of the two (Cause I'm a sucker for Periwinkle/Lilac shades.) I will definitely be wearing a lot of Rose Quartz pieces this year. And hologram. Lots and lots of hologram and iridescent pieces. In my opinion, I feel that more silver, blue and pink based holorgram accessories and clothing will be trending right along with these magical colors. And if you've been a long time reader of the blog, you already know that hologram EVERYTHING is A-ok with me.

So tell me...what's your favorite Pantone color this year? How did you spend your New Year's? See ya soon!

AW15 Tumblr Moodboard + Update

Pics via Tumblr | Collages by Me

Hey guys! I can't believe it's been almost a MONTH since I've published a post on the blog! There's been so much going on so it was wise to put AFH to the side until I could get everything taken care of, and I did! It's taking everything in me not to spoil all of the fun surprises I have for you loyal readers! If you're new to A Fabulous Hippie, welcome! You can subscribe via Bloglovin' or email for trend reports, fashion inspo, ootds and much more. ;)

With Summer coming to a close, it's time to prepare for the magic Fall brings with it every year. I'm just kidding, it's time to go shopping. Duh. ;)

Even though we all know that the warm hues from the 70s is trending for this upcoming season, I'm still addicted to black and white. I don't think you guys understand....B&W will always be bae. On the other hand, Navy and Khaki might steal my heart this upcoming season. ;)

A few months back, I was part of a discussion on Twitter (@afabuloushippie) with a few bloggers and other fashion aficionados about trends for AW15...SPOILER ALERT: Hologram handbags WILL be trending! Better load up now!

Thanks for reading! I appreciate everyone's patience.
