Sips and Styles Day 6- My Turn!

I'm so excited to be posting today for our sixth and final day of the Spring Sips and Styles series.  I just have to give a quick shout out to all the fabulous bloggers who participated in this inaugural series.  I got so many great fashion tips and drink recipes over the past two weeks and I hope you all enjoyed reading them and discovering the new blogs as well!  My day is going to be all about one of my favorite Spring fashion trends, pastels and one of my favorite drinks of all time, the champagne cocktail.
 I love the look of a dressy short for a night out...they are comfortable and stylish.  Pair some in the fabulous mint color this season with the "on trend" floral top and nude heels.  Fabulous!

 A head turning statement necklace in mint is an easy way to incorporate pastels into your outfit.


Here are some pieces similar to the ones I'm wearing....

Pastels and Champagne!

While wearing your fashionable pastels this season, why not complement them with a mouth watering, floral champagne cocktail in hand?  I discovered St. Germain liquor while dining out about a year ago, and now I can't resist when I see it on a menu.   If you haven't tried St. Germain, it's a floral liquor that is amazingly delicious and perfect for springtime sipping.  So I came across this yummy concoction and I just had to share it with you all.
