Ageless Style: Winter White With a Splash of Periwinkle

I am here with the ladies of Ageless Style for our monthly link-up, every third Thursday of the month. This months periwinkle color prompt was inspired by Pantones color of the year, Very Peri. Although Very Peri has a distinct violet red undertone, Periwinkle has a border spectrum of blue and violet hues. I decided to use my Periwinkle blazer as my pop of color in a winter white outfit. I love how this combination came together. I am a big fan of monochromatic looks but this time I decided to add a twist of soft color with the blazer, and then the booties are navy suede staying in the same blue family. I kept my jewelry really soft and subtle with winter whites, sliver and soft pastels beads in my bracelet. With the freshly fallen snow as a a backdrop the pictures came out even better than I could have imagined. I recently wore this exact outfit to work. People always wonder how I can wear white as a prekindergarten teacher, but I honestly don't ever worry about it much. Bleach is my best friend and I've had these white jeans for YEARS!

This blazer has become a favorite of mine since buying it in early fall and you can see how I've styled it here in three different ways. One of my goals in the fall was to add more blazers to my wardrobe because they pair so well with jeans, dress pants, and dresses. I also like how in the spring and summer they can easily be substituted for a coat and they instantly dress an outfit up.

Be sure to check out all the Ageless Style ladies and how they interpreted this prompt for more ideas, and be sure to link-up with us below. Thank you for stopping by and this Thursday post is instead of my weekly Monday, Jan. 24th post. See you the following Monday!
