Wearing a pop of bright color is such a great way to add interest and fun to an otherwise monochromatic outfit. It’s also a great way to mix up your wardrobe. Take the outfit I’m wearing below for example. This white, timeless eyelet dress could be worn with absolutely anything, which is part of the reason I bought it, and this red Prada backpack goes perfectly with it. Swap out the backpack for another colorful bag, bright shoes, or other eye-catching statement accessory and it’s an entirely new look. Rinse and repeat over and over again to give simple garments or pieces in heavy rotation a new lease on life!

The Only Green Juice Recipe You’ll Ever Need
Today, I’m sharing my favorite cold pressed green juice recipe, which features organic kale, cucumbers, celery, and Meyer lemon.

Instead of shelling out $15+ for a fresh pressed organic juice, I’ve been making my own at home, and I love that I can completely customize this recipe to fit whatever I’m in the mood for. I hope you love this recipe as much as I do!
