One thing that I really love about a good leather (or faux leather!) jacket is that it instantly adds an edge to any outfit and can provide balance to the girliest colors, fabrics, and prints. In this case, it was the perfect topper to add some “cool factor” to a pretty mint blouse.
So can pastels be edgy? Heck yes! I mean, I know I would hardly fit in at any old biker bar, but this is about as edgy as this girl gets.

I agree about the leather jacket. It really completes an outfit. This is one of my favorite looks of yours…super cute!
Love that! I like the combination 🙂 I could wear that to work or on the weekend!
I like the light shirt with the darker clothing and your darker hair. It makes the shirt stand out more!
I’m obsessed with every single aspect of this look. You wear that pastel solo well. I’m so jealous. I’m so porcelain skinned and I just don’t feel like I can wear them. Seriously though, you look fab!
Oh pretty lady, you are GLOWING once again!
Loving the jacket, it is such a great combo, the leather and pastel look. The necklace is eyecatching, I know you indicated Etsy but where exactly did you get it??
That jacket is gorgeous! I still sadly don’t have any leather jackets in my closet.

I am loooving this look! Pastels can for sure be edgy! PS those earrings are adorbs!

I love the combination of pastels and leather! Pastels always feel too sweet for me, and a lot of leather and black feels to edgy, so combining them in the perfect thing! You look great!
That leather jacket is the perfect topper for the blouse! I love unexpected pairings like this!

Yep, I love what a leather jacket does to an outfit. It instantly pulls it together and makes it edgier 🙂
I love the edge that a little leather jacket can instantly add, and I love the chic contrast between a feminine blouse and an edgier jacket! This look is right up my alley – so cute!
So rad! I just pulled my brown leather moto jacket from Florence outta the closet and decided it is now maternity wear! You look great!
Loving this entire look! The blazer and heels are such a great combo!

I’m loving the juxtaposition of hard and soft with the leather and pastel! Gorgeous!
Yes! There’s nothing better than a little edge added to something feminine. You pulled this off perfectly!
This jacket is perfection on you!
Oooh I really like this look! The pastel shirt is perfect with the edgy jacket.
Love this look! The leather blazer certainly gives it an edge 🙂 The color on that top is gorgeous too.
