Tuesday Temptations: Not-so-boring bottoms

The bottom half of my wardrobe has been looking a little sad lately. Black pants, solid colors - you know...the "safe" stuff. It's okay to admit if you're finding yourself in the same situation. No judgment is passed here. Especially since I have a feeling these printed and patterned pieces are the swift kick in the pants (pun intended) we need!

Any of these will take your basic blouses and tops to the next level without a ton of effort. Boring black pencil skirt? Psssshhhh! Who needs that when you can wear that mint green peplum number? And I'm sure you've been wearing the heck out of your floral print blouse. But I bet you haven't paired it with that those window pane pants, have you? That's what I thought.

Really all that's left to decide - and I'm including myself in this - is how much of your May shopping budget do you want to part with this early in the month. Hint: All of it is a completely acceptable answer!

XO,
Alison
