So there’s a good chance that if you look in my closet anytime of the year a majority of it is black and grey! I didn’t mean for it turn out that way, but every time I try to pick out clothes with a little color, I end up going with my signature “black top”. I was in desperate need of a spring closet makeover!
I’m the girl that has every style of a black top in her closet!
So thank goodness for fashionista friends with style, because Elsa from Eye Candy Boutique helped me come out from the dark-side by adding some color and patterns back into my closet! Elsa is pretty amazing, she turned her once pop-up shop into a plus size boutique with anything from shoes to jewelry & some very unique pieces that would brighten any wardrobe! She also won the Retailer of Year Award for 2016 from the San Antonio Fashion Awards! Congratulations to Elsa on such an amazing accomplishment!
I love shopping at Eye Candy Boutique because I can always find something that I absolutely love! This time I really wanted to go out of my comfort zone and Elsa was kind enough to help me pick out the most perfect pieces! As we went through all the choices, it was so interesting to see the differences in choices between Elsa and myself!
I was drawn towards patterns that I’m use to wearing and of course with the color black in it!!! For some reason I love checkers, it’s like my go-to pattern of choice!
Elsa suggested solid and more bolder pieces that were super cute. I love the colors that seem to be popular this spring, the pinks and longer pieces that give an out fit a whole new look from day to night!
So after trying on lots of choices, I was so happy with the pieces I went home with! They all fit perfectly and I can also work them in with some of my favorites at home….BONUS!
Here is one of my absolute favorite choices that Elsa helped me put together. It was so fun to join Elsa and Grace on the set of SA Live and show all the fun new styles out for spring! This outfit I’m wearing is the perfect day to night outfit! I absolutely love this tone of green that I would have never picked out on my own and it’s also an off the shoulder top.. how fun is that!
Such a fun outfit, I absolutely love it!
When it comes to patterns, I gotta admit… I shy away! When Elsa suggested this lace and strip top, I was a little weary. but when I tried it on, we definitely knew it was a keeper!
These washed jeans are my favorite… I love the look and what’s even better they will go perfect with all those black tops I have! I also couldn’t leave without this adorable tote! Every year Elsa has custom totes made for her customers and I was so excited to get my hands on one this year!!! Gotta say.. it’s very ME! Sassy, Classy y un Poco Bad Assy!
I’m so glad I took a chance and put some new fun items in my closet! Eye Candy Boutique is located in Downtown San Antonio and she also has a website where you can purchase so many amazing items! Check it out and let me know what your faves are?
Love that Lace Top!! And that Badass bag! I need some color in my closet, almost everything I own is black. I really love that she helped you select tops.
That teal top is so perfect for spring. The fit is brilliant too so yay on the brilliant find!! The lace and stripes top is a classic too. Elsa definitely has great taste and loved her suggestions for you! xx
Some really cute outfits you got there! Elsa has a great sense of style and knows exactly what suits you. I love shopping at places like that where the workers/store owners automatically recommend a trend whether you like it or not at the time and then it turns out to be your fav piece. I love the wording on that tote. Sounds really sassy too!
All of these look so good on you! I’m a black and grey kind of girl too, but I caught myself eyeing a blush top yesterday that I might go and try now thanks to this. I’m not sure I’m brave enough for patterns yet though!
I’m so with you on that Meagan! This lacy/Stripe combo is about as crazy as I’m going get. You should go try it on, You never know I may look fabulous on you!
Love the looks you’ve picked! I’m with you, and wear a LOT of black. But whenever I switch things up, it feels fresh and fun! Yay for you! (I LOVE that bag!!)
Love these outfits! I’m horrible about color in my wardrobe too. I don’t know when it happened but one day I looked in my closet and all I saw was gray and black. 😞 Thanks for sharing!
I love boutique shopping so much! I’m so ready for spring to come so I can start adding new things to my closet for the season!! I love that first outfit!
The outfits look great on you! I’m going to have to check out that boutique!
Love all the choices! I too have the black and grey problem. Mostly because I don’t want to buy bright colors in my size. But after see these great pics I might just add some color to my closet too!
I loved your outfit and looked super comfy! I love the color black too! It is fashionable in every season and I love to add pops of color! I’ll have to check out the website
Yes Sheila I agree. I love my black tops with fun scarfs or shoes! Thanks for stopping by!
I really need to do this soon. My closet looks like it threw up everywhere. I’m also thinking about becoming a minimalist. Sometimes it’s impossible because I just way too much. Great post thank you I really enjoyed it!
OMG I need to revamp my closet and go shopping (loving making a statement with scarfs and headbands)
