Rouge Accents




French Connection Dress, H&M Denim Jacket, Rebecca Minkoff Bag, Marc Fisher Boots, BaubleBar Necklace (my new favorite!), Winners Cuff (my other new favorite!) and Ray-Ban Aviators 

One thing I learned quite early on when taking blog photos is that a shaded location works much much better than a sunny one. It was a rule I lived by: shaded photos only! However, after having read Alexandra from To Vogue Or Bust's Basic Photography guide, I was getting an itch to try something different with my photos. My sister and I decided to try to use the sun as a backlight, and it turned out pretty interesting!

As much as there's snow in the background of my pictures, snow has actually been melting this weekend! The weather had been mild, the birds are chirping, and I couldn't be happier. It's still not warm enough to not wear tights, but we're getting there!

  1. I love this post! Your outfit is adorable - I love the dress on you & that denim jacket is just perfect! And I love the sunlight in these pics, it doesn't wash you out at all and the colors are still so nice & vibrant!

  2. Is there anything that red doesn't go with? I don't think so - but it does look especially good with black, denim and gold. This outfit is perfect! Love.
