Last week was filled with the most amazing Spring / Summer weather. Temperatures up to almost 80 degrees had me busting out my sandals. I was in Brooklyn for a good part of last week shooting a summer look book with Brahmin, Taylor and Kendi. (I definitely blew up the instagram feed with sneak peeks of the shoot if you want to check them out HERE!) So this sunny afternoon I spent with Taylor going to grab a mocha and sit and catch it up with one of my fav West Coast ladies. I layered up in pastel tones to blend in with all the budding cherry blossom trees. Something about these pale colors together that feel so fresh to me. Just some spring color to start off your week!
Thanks Taylor for snapping these photos! xoxo



This cream/taupe color looks really great on you, like pastel
! I’m really jealous, it looks better on you than me

The color of your jacket is great!
I love this muted color palette. And the pretty turquoise in the ring is a great accent!
Love how great that pale peach looks with your skin – and hair! I have been looking for a slightly darker blonde for inspiration at my next hair appointment, and I think I’ve found it – thank you! Now if I could only get my hair to curl like yours…
lol. It’s all natural blonde too
And I am so lucky to have some wave in my hair. Glad to be a hair muse

Oh dear, these colors are so soft and sweet, yet very cool! And did I mention the makeup is spot on?
which lippie are you wearing?
Thank you! Wearing NARS Roman Holiday. You can find it here http://rstyle.me/bunzk2bwd xo, Kim
AH….that hurts…I mean Nars is so expensive. I would love to find a dupe at drugstores. LOL
I would check out revlon and cover girl. Have seen some GREAT pinks! Lipsticks are def an investment for me too. I just LOVE how subtle and pretty the Nars pink is. xo, Kim
Such beautiful, subdued colors! Simply lovely!
I LOVE this outfit. so subtle and yet so stylish
Seriously, you are the queen of blazers

I agree with Kiwi…jealous you’ve got sandals weather! Hoping to pull mine out soon…
Love these neutral-ish pastels together, it creates such a softness and sweetness. Leaving the pussybow untied actually played that up, because it’s really pretty and elegant the way the ties hang down almost like a scarf!

Love from South Africa
waw really like this outfit! you look so fresh and perfect for spring time! <3
Sorry if you’ve answered this before, or if it’s the way the pastels look against your skin, but your skin looks amazing in these photos. What type of contouring and highlighting make-up do you use? Your cheekbones are so defined and the light is hitting your face so softly, if it’s just au natural, you’re one lucky gal!
Awe thanks for the question! I don’t do much contouring in my every day makeup just for more special occasions. I do use a light pink blush more on the top of my cheek bone. Hope this helps! xo, Kim
Thanks Kim! You just have gorgeous skin
I’ll try some light pink blush, I usually go for a darker hue.
