It’s already May people! How did that happen so fast?!?! Today, as always, Sheaffer, Mel and I are hosting a Linky Party to get everyone Pin-spired. (You know…take an inspiration from Pinterest and recreate the outfit using things from your own closet.) If you missed me last month, click here to find out how I got Pin-spired in April.
Here’s the thing…I waited all month for warm weather so that I could style some outfits with shorts…but guess what? It’s been cold here in Dallas! In my 31 years, I don’t remember a spring that has been this chilly. I’m not complaining…we have probably 100 days of over 100 degrees in our near future, so I am absorbing as much cool air as I can…but…tomorrow, May 2, the high in my area is 59 degrees! In May! That is UNBELIEVABLE!
Needless to say…I don’t have a summery outfit today…but I do have an outfit that has the colors of summer and spring with a little warmth for the chilly days.
My inspiration photo…navy and white stripe shirt with bright skinny jeans.
And what I pulled out of my closet.
Not bad, right? It kept me warm while also looking like spring and not drab winter.

Click here for the jeans.
And guess what?! Both are on sale…
And even though it was chilly, I’m absolutely so obsessed with these wedges, that I wore them anyway. They are the most comfortable wedges ever made. Period. They’re fabulous! (And yes, my toes are painted…I had someone comment last month that they weren’t. I wear bold colors on my fingers and neutral shades on my toes. This is OPI’s Cosmo-Not Tonight-Honey.)
These are the putty wedges…but they come in several other colors as well. You must get you a pair (or two!).
Next month will be June! Surely, I will be wearing shorts, right?
Don’t forget to link up today below! And you can always follow my Pinterest boards by clicking here.
Today in my kitchen…Sprinkle Cake Cookies.
And my giveaway is going on until Friday morning. Click here for details.
Happy May!

someone seriously commented on your toe nails??? good lord. Super cute outfit ~ and those darn wedges. I'm going to email my husband a link to every time you and sheaffer have raved about them to convince him they are a need! ha!! 😉 And i'm pretty jealous of your weather! I mean our florida spring has been pretty mild too but it is in the 80's and the humidity is already gross! Enjoy the cooler weather a little extra for me!! =)
Courtney says
You are so cute! You should do outfit posts more often, I love your style!
Amie says
I love those wedges but do you have any recommendations for any that are under $70? I know them being that much they are probably totally worth it but I'm a cheapy and don't think I could let myself spend quite that much on them 🙁 lol
Caravan Sonnet says

Shay! Did you see Michael Buble on DWTS last night? I thought you'd for sure be in the ballroom for that. I love his new CD!!
The Tomlinsons says
I love the random tidbits you share. I do the opposite, bold colors on my toes and neutral on my fingers. How often do you paint your nails? I can never get the polish to last very long. I use neutral colors because when the color chips off it's not as noticeable.
Paige @ Kids and The Good Stuff says
Can I ask a silly but not really question? How do you cook such yummy desserts and still be in such great shape?? Your spirit of self control must be in shape as well!

mel @ the larson lingo says
SUPER cute outfit! I have a similar navy/white striped top. I could wear it with my coral pants! CUTE. And, I love your love of wedges. Wish I could wear wedges, but at 5'9, wedges would put me at over 6 feet tall…..YIKES.

For questions about my fitness, check out the 52 Shades page across the top…I'll be doing a polish post soon with info on that as well. And, I'll be addressing what time I go to bed on Friday's post. Have a great day everyone! XOXO
Rachel says

{Hi Sugarplum!} says
You look adorable…love your outfit!!! and i think I need to head over to Nordstrom to check out those wedges!
Aubrey says
Your high temp in Dallas was the EXACT SAME as my high temp in Cheltenham. We even dressed similarly…if you disregard the fact that my striped top is maternity and my strappy shoes are flats. 🙂
Jenna {Real Simple Girl} says
Shay, I used the same Pinterest outfit for last month's Pinspired, but I like yours so much better!! I have those pink pants from Gap, too, and I love them! P.S. I'm super jealous that it's still cool in Dallas. It's already so hot here in FL, but I'm thankful for rainy days like today that cool it down a bit.
Olivia says
I LOVE those pants. This Texas weather is crazy. I'll welcome some cool weather though! I'm not looking forward to the heat!
