Happy Easter lovelies!

As a child, I was always excited about this particular holiday because our family would have an annual egg hunt, and I absolutely loved getting my little hands on those pastel colored eggs (for the chocolates inside, of course :P).

Even as I got older, whenever I see pastel colors, I’m always reminded of my childhood, digging through the grass in my grandma’s yard with my cousins for Easter eggs.

This Easter is no different and as I reminisce about those carefree days, I channeled all of the overflowing holiday spirit into my wardrobe – a long, flowing, robin egg blue maxi dress.

I love this maxi dress because it sports a shorter skirt inside, while the outer, longer dress acts as a cover-up with long, daring slits up the sides. It’s the perfect balance of dreamy windswept skirts and subtle edge, especially with the cut-out lace details on the back.

To top off the light color palette of this whole outfit, I’m carrying a large white tote bag, and I also added an oversized straw hat as well to complete the whole relaxed, casual vibe of the whole ensemble.

For shoes, I went with my current favorite Nine West strappy sandals again since the white color really pops against the floor-sweeping length of the pastel-colored maxi dress.

To add some more details to the outfit as a whole, I also donned a necklace and hoops, so there will be some shine and sparkle on top of the soft pastel colors.
