It's a Neon Takeover

Clockwise from Left:


I am on a HUGE neon kick lately, and I never thought I would love it this much..ever. 
(Right now, I'm wearing a neon yellow shirt.) 
I experimented with some neons in a previous post, here
I had so much fun with it!
I usually go for muted colors or no color at all. I think because when I was younger (as I'm sure many of you can relate to) I used to wear bright colors constantly. I had bright yellow jean shorts, lime green everything, bright orange, etc. Then, when I was "too old" or "cool" to wear those clothes anymore, I became disgusted with them. Therefore, I was originally disgusted with this 80's come back. However, now I am obsessed, and I came to the realization that there is a big difference between bright colors and neon. 
There's just something very enticing about neon clothing and accessories these days, and I want. it. all.
As of late, I am on the hunt for some neon bracelets and pink neon jeans.
The colorblock tan and neon pink satchel would also be lovely to own, too.
I need to make a run to Target today for some  'necessities.' Maybe I will covet some neon items while I am there, because we all know going into Target for toothpaste means coming out with 4 bags of goodies.

Happy Wednesday :)

Sorry for slacking on the posts this past week. I was in Colorado visiting my boyfriend, FINALLY seeing him after about seven months. It was wonderful :) Pics of that soon to arrive!

I was in a neon mood the day before I left last week. I meant to post these before my flight, but I ran out of time. Mostly, because I felt the need to pack my entire wardrobe and then some. My suitcase was 49 lbs, and needless to say, the largest one of the group.. Hey, I wanted to look cute for my man!

I thought the mixing of neon pink and yellow looked awesome together, and the white pants just made everything pop more. I threw this outfit together at the last minute before my LAST day of classes for the semester. I was in a good mood :) 
Four weeks off school. Then, I start summer semester and my internship. However, June is also when my boyfriend comes home on leave! Hurry up, June!!

My mom also did a wonderful fishtail braid for me. She's so great with hair :]

Are you all excited for summer? Warmer weather needs to arrive and stay in Chicago!
