This outfit is yet another reminder of how lucky I am to be running this blog. Why? Because until I challenged myself and fellow bloggers to tryout the Neon + Neutral trend, I would have never dreamed up this outfit. And I love it.
It’s comfortable, easy, but chic enough to wear anywhere. While I suspect I’ll be repeating this outfit many more places in the future, this night I wore it to a dinner & movie date with [houston]. We had amazing drinks and tapas at a local favorite tapas bar we frequent called Oporto, and then saw “Hangover 2”. Well, [houston] saw most of it. I fell asleep. Two months of a surgery rotation will do that to ya.
This lipstick is my new favorite – it’s the hot pink seen on the model’s lips in this post, but it’s matte so it’s very unexpected and not as “look at me”, in a way.

I love this outfit, you look really lovely! I'm a bit jealous of your watch, it's perfect.

Love it – those shoes are killer!!
never did i think a medical student could have such an awesome style sense due to what i get to see among my peers mostly..you look amazing!and i didn't like hangover2 that much.don't think you missed out a lot if you have seen the 1st one.
NIIICE WEDGES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! http://likemousseauchoco.blogspot.com/
You look fantastic in the hot pink hue! And the bow is like the cherry on top of a super chic outfit.

That skirt is so perfect for this challenge! I'm glad you went all out and even added the lipstick! (It makes me think I should try the lipstick trend) I can't wait to see what everyone else posts! http://unjourdejaune.blogspot.com/
Absolutely love it! I wasn't sure how I'd feel about neon + neutral, but this take on it is something I could see myself wearing. Can't wait for the BDIB link up to see what everyone else comes up with!
this is so pulled together. your shirt seems to bring out your eyes, and the lips and skirt… very pretty. every time i read your blog i get scared for my upcoming surg rotation. but you got thru it and still look fabulous!
That combo is soo pretty!! That pink looks great on you!
Before this challenge I would have never thought of mixing neon and neutral colors together!
Such a gorgeous and chic look! Those shoes are to DIE for, by the way 🙂 And I really really love the bow in your hair, it's so unexpected, yet *makes* the outfit. Fabulous job!!

this is fantastic! I love your take on Neon and neutral! That top is just so perfect! I cannot wait to post my look!
You look incredible, and those shoes are to die for! I tried that skirt on today, but I'm not sure that it looked as good on me as it did you!
This looks great. Great idea challenging yourself with that colour combo.
Pretty! The neon and (edgy) wedges paired with neutral and your classic styling makes this look totally fresh and fun. It's ladylike with a twist. http://www.theclotheswewear.com

I think neon pink is incredibly wearable! Thank you for proving it here. x http://www.the-beauty-beat.blogspot.com
Uber cute! I can't wait to see everyone else's take on this BDIB challenge. :]

I like the skirt but that is it I'm afraid. Don't think the wedges are very flattering…
This post is making me think I need to re-think what I have in my closet and see if I can pull off something similar. I'm loving the way you pair the nude-colored top with the amazingly pink skirt! With a number of FBFF bloggers excited about this next fashion challenge it will be interesting to see all the ways they recreate this trend! – Katy
you look amazing.
LOVE! LOVE! LOVE! Rockstar AND chic at the same time!
I would have never thought to combine these two. It works!
I cant wait to try to challenge myself and mix the two together.
You look beautiful! The skirt is stunning with the neutral, I love those shoes as well. 🙂
