Weekend Comfort :: Hot Pink & Forsythia

Happy Friday everyone!
I've always wanted to experience the Spring cherry blossoms in DC but the festival and blooming schedule always fall right smack in the middle of Finals study period. So these forsythia are the next best thing =)
Right now I am loving these hot pink trousers. Not only are they fun and comfortable to lounge around in but they are also perfect for a night out as well. For a more sophisticated look I would recommend pairing them with a top that is more structured and intricate. Otherwise for a casual demeanor I just roll the hems up a few times to create that relaxed look.
Another fool proof trick to keeping it casual is by gently tucking in the front corner of your blouse. This helps achieve that asymmetrical draping effect - don't you just love it when small tricks like this makes everything look better =)

 Top :: Gap (similar here)
Bottom :: H&M (similar here)
Shoes :: Aldo (similar here)
Bag :: Rebecca Minkoff Ostrich Boyfriend Bag (similar here)
Thanks for reading and have a great Easter!
