P A S T E L - B A B Y



When it comes to spring and summer, I tend to be a sucker for anything pastel. It's difficult for me to break out of my all neutral color palette of whites, grays and blacks. Pastels offer a compromise, nothing to bold and wild, but I still get to wear a hint of color in watered-down shades of pink, teal, blues and purples. I decided to create a mood board that reflected some of the current spring trends that stuck to this neutral, pastel color scheme. This outfit is cozy, simple, and a cross between chic gym trainer and 90's workout video. In the grueling summer heat of Texas, sports bra's can double as top. Yes, it really gets that hot here. Beyond the practical aspects of workout clothes, gym wear as outer wear offers the perfect motivation to hit the gym and accomplish some of those 'summer body' goals. We'll see if this holds true by the end of summer…

A big thank you to the wonderful Mitchell Flores who shot all of these looks and spent a couple hours with me in the summer heat. I'm currently stoked to share the rest of the looks that we shot and some upcoming collaboration projects that are currently in the work. Stay tuned for future posts!

XOXO, Laurel
