It’s almost time for spring, and for me its also almost time for a holiday! This season of the year is definitely my most favourite one, as when the flowers begin to bloom, I feel like I start coming alive with them again. I like to think that I go into hibernation during winter (sadly I still have to attend social events like work) and come alive again in spring. And what better way to refresh and restart, then with some wardrobe additions from Truworths Fashion and their new summer 2016 range!

Summer 2016 at Truworths is a minimalist affair characterized by pastels, nautical elegance, and bohemian wanderlust. I was immediately drawn to this yellow pastel midi skirt, because I’ve never met a midi skirt that I didn’t just love! This was my first pleated one though, and I really love it! It’s the most gorgeous color that brings happiness and life into any outfit. Don’t you think it’s just gorgeous?

I paired the skirt with this cute statement T-shirt, because let’s be honest- chocolate is always my best friend! Can’t live without it, I love it in any form (except as ice cream) and any shape. The LINDT Orange dark chocolate gives me life, and is probably my most favorite in the range. I really like the way the pastel skirt and the statement tee pair together, to create a cool and easy spring look.

I’ve worn this outfit to work already and it also wouldn’t look out of place at a concert (paired with flats), gallery hopping on First Thursdays, a brunch in Braamfontein, or really anywhere the day takes you. I paired the look with some bright pink heels and a purple lipstick, but it would look just as nice with some pretty pumps and a nude lip.

Are we ready for spring, or what? 🙂
