design YOUR look.

lovelies, today i bring you my very first polyvore set!  this was such a fun challenge: my friend jess LC (see here) over at makeunder my life is having her readers design spring looks featuring her beautiful jewelry, and starting april 11, we can go over and vote for our favorites!  so here's my entry:
jess LC - design your look by aspotofwhimsy featuring messenger handbags

i wanted bright and sunny while taking into consideration the realities of chicago in the spring, hence the trench and the scarf!  i picture the girl in this outfit enjoying brunch with her girlfriends followed by an afternoon of window shopping on michigan avenue.  she'll swing by a flower shop on her way home for a fresh bouquet of tulips.

    So pretty and accessorized just perfectly! I love it.

    Thanks for the polyvore link, by the way. I have always wondering how people make these lovely collages. : )

    xo,

    I'm so so happy to have stumbled on this entry in the DYL Challenge! I can hardly believe this was your first polyvore set! That yellow dress is positively stunning...and your blog is too!

    If you had fun with polyvore {and let's be honest--who doesn't?!}, you should put your skills to work again for my weekly link-up, Friday’s Fancies. It's a fun way to showcase your impeccable style and reach new blogs. Though I can't promise $200, I can promise an extra entry in my {ode to france giveaway} this week :)

    I sure hope you'll consider joining in the fun--and that you have a fantastic week! xoxo {av}
