As much of an overload as Valentine’s Day can be, I can’t help but love all of the pink. While I can admit that some the candyย and teddy bears can be a bit on the tacky side, I take February as an excuse to have a littleย pop of pink wherever I can… Flowers at Whole Foods, lipstick, a brightly-colored clutch, and even the heart cookies at Starbucks! However when it comes to clothing, I much prefer blush pink. I saw this dress at Nordstrom and knew I had to have it for spring. Between the fit & flare shape and the subtle gold and pink jacquard fabric, I was sold! It’s the perfect dress for Easter or any of the showers you might have coming up over the next few months.

PS: How fun is this heart mural? It’s located at 1820 W Webster in Chicago! A fellow Chicago blogger, Jenn from Style Charade, did an amazing round-up of cool walls and murals around the city. Definitely check it out!
I really share your pink love and you look super cute in your pink dress!

Love the blush pink! It is one of my favorite hues of pink as well! I agree, Valentine’s Day can be corny but it can also be adorable and I love pink and red so I totally embrace it. Have a good one!

Love the dress and love the strappy high heel sandals. Perfect outfit for warmer weather but not Northern winter.
Blush pink is by far my favorite shade. It’s so feminine and chic. Love this dress on you!

You look SO pretty! I’m not into the bright reds or pinks either, so this blush pink is absolutely perfect! And I’ve always loved that heart wall… I think it’s so cool!
