My apologies for being completely MIA over the past week.  I took an unannounced hiatus from blogging and Twitter because sometimes you just need to get away for a bit.  But I’m back now and will be visiting your blogs this week to catch up on everything I’ve missed.

The colors pink & blue will always hold a soft spot in my heart because they are my sorority colors.  I picked up these salmon color high-waisted pants from American Apparel a few days ago and they are, hands-down, one of my best recent purchases.  I can dress them up or down and fell in love with them so much that I also bought a pair in both black and yellow.

Do you have a favorite color combination that you tend to naturally gravitate toward?  What color combos are you feeling for summer?

    those trousers are amazing! can’t wait to see the yellow pair! i also love those shoes! the colours do look really great together. it’s not something i ever wear but i definitely like it. oh man, i am soo boring when it comes to the colours i normally wear…. grey, black, white, maybe some navy if i’m feeling wild. haha. no, that’s not entirely true. am really like teal/turquoise at the moment and yellow – blue and yellow together is a winning combo. maybe that’s because i’m dreaming about my holiday to sweden…. xx

    Thanks Ediot! For some reason, your comments always end up in my spam filter and I remove them and then have to approve them. Not sure why!

    Thanks though, and hope you’re having a wonderful week as well! xoxo

    I didn’t know AA came out with those pants. They have such a great shape and a crazy vibrant color. The pairing of the pants with the denim top is perfect. It’s unexpected in a great way; the fabrics play off of each other so well.

    My default color combination is always black and grey. Haha, not very colorful, but I can’t stay away from it.

    I love the color choices and how you styled the blazer, top and pants. Looking fab, Becs! :) Reminds me so much of summer.

    And thanks for the lovely comments. Also, I totally relate to the need to step away from blogging every once in a while. I took a break for memorial day weekend and came back recharged!

    Dope pants and jacket for sure. Pleats ftw! I’d like to think I have different color combos for the seasons, but really I end up wearing some form of blue, green, and grey year round. I’m boring.

    ps. I wish those were all my magazines-it’s actually a shot from my favorite place in Michigan.

    You look super pretty in these photos (and in real life of course too). Love the pink lips- they compliment the coral pants nicely. I have to say you definitely can pull off this random collection of pieces and make it into one cohesive look that you totally own. xo, mel

    Love those pants! I would have never thought of combining blue boots with them, but it looks great! Hmm, favourite colour combo, that’s difficult. I dress so simply, I like combining different beiges with a deep navy… Wow, that sounds boring. I like your colour combination better.

    Chère Becs, I thik that this silhouette (exquisitely) illustrates a certain “Urban Casual CHIC” idea . . . a fortiori with such a soft chromatic harmony pants / lipstick !!! “KILLing sweetness”, as Always.
    ps: Warmly Hope you’re well Dear Friend.

    Amicalement, Antoine

    First, I just have to say that I want your hair! It always falls perfectly – you are just gorgeous! Second….ah, those trousers are heaven! The color is stunning; and I love the way that it ever so slightly matches the color of your lipstick – so pretty!

    I think the color combos I’m feeling this summer are chambrays and cognacs; blush pinks and black; and corals and dark denims!

    By the way…yes, yes, yes! I would LOVE to exchange links with you! I have just added Style with Benefits to my links/favorites list!! :)

    I have a soft spot for pink. I rarely ever buy things that are pink but when I do I get so excited. I love your hair, it so shiny.

    Lurve your color palette, Becs! Those pants are gorgeous.
    I’m a big fan of anything blue or turquoise for the summer. I still like pastels and neutrals with neon too.

    the pants are to die for! such a great color.

    Pink and blue look adorable on you, especially because you haven’t done then in an overly saturated-sweet way (like a dress). This look has the Becs edge to it!

    I always gravitate towards black and white, but I’ve also been gravitating toward red, white and blue right now… channeling some summer sun, perhaps?
