The truth is, I’ve been struggling to get back into a routine here on Lex What Wear. As I’m sure some of you have noticed, defining our new normal has taken more time than I originally planned. Maybe I am searching for something much more than inspiration, but until I can put my finger on it, I plan on trying to start fresh. Yes I’ve been busier than ever, and my mind isn’t 100 percent focused on blogging, but that doesn’t mean I have lost sight of what I enjoy most. Maybe I need to challenge myself to a certain number of poster per week, or maybe I just let it happen organically. Regardless, it’s a time of growth and rediscovery, and I thank you for continuing to support this venture no matter where life takes me.
Valentine’s Day Outfit
A girl must have ALL the essentials for a successful and stylish Valentine’s Day outfit. Today I’m sharing my top picks, from dresses to camisoles. We should all own a few of these for Valentines Day and after. I’m obsessing over the romantic trend that’s been taking over as of late, and I firmly believe it will carry over into Spring. One look I can’t get enough of is a camisole, paired with a cardigan and jeans. It sounds basic, but if styled correctly, it’s a gorgeous and romantic combination.

Black Grid Sweater
SWEATER | JEANS | HANDBAG | BOOTS
Talk about the perfect oversized piece for your wardrobe, my black grid sweater is the ultimate find. For just UNDER $35, this turtleneck is all yours. I’m digging the loose fit and drop shoulder, plus the sweater works well with a number of items already in my closet. I love mixing prints every now and then, so I added this Vera Bradley bag to add a little pop. I’d like to think this look could work at work or for play. Swap your jeans for slacks for 8-5, and then hit the town in your favorite denim.

Color Crush: Pale Dogwood
This Winter and Spring I’ll be featuring several of the Pantone Colors for 2017. Each year the report forecasts color trends that could significantly impact the fashion game. For me it’s inspiration for the season ahead. To kick things off, I’m starting with a personal favorite, pale dogwood. I’ve got a serious color crush on this shade of blush. You can wear this color all year long, incorporating accessories, jewelry and shoes. I’ve handpicked a few items I can’t wait to add to my wardrobe, including pieces you can wear now and later.
