Millennial Pink

The color everyone can't get enough of this summer!

What is Millennial Pink you ask?  It's that rosy pastel, muted shade of blush pink that you're seeing on all the IT girls and in all the best boutiques (like LBD)!  

I have been obsessed with this glorious shade for far longer than I knew it had a token nickname.  My much cooler, much younger, millennial cousin complimented my look, "I love your outfit, I'm into Millennial Pink too!"  And thus created the title for today's blog.  

Summer's Hottest Color; great for any age!

Have no fear, you do not have to be a millennial to add this fabulous color into your summer mix!  The shade is so simply romantic and effortlessly cool that it can slip into your wardrobe no matter what your style is!

I've done all the hard work for you and highlighted some of my very favorite pieces from LBD to show you a few of my favorite ways to rock the shade of the season!


Monochromatic From Head to Toe!

The monochromatic look is such a modern spin on office chic!  Keep it effortless with a fitted suede jacket rather than a blazer over your sheath dress!  Perfect mix and match pieces to create multiple combinations!

Flirty Blouse Paired with Crisp White!


The perfect girls night out look?  A flirty blouse in just the right pink paired with crisp white pants!  Add a choker to give your look just the right amount of edge to pair with your soft shades!

Ruffled dress and floral printed clutch!


If you're on the hunt for the perfect date night look, this combo is all you need! Ruffles, pink, and florals can easily go too girly, but done the right way have such an air of sophistication and romance!

Staying Sexy Cool

Holy Heat Wave Chicago!


It's time to get ready for a sizzling summer in the city and I'm here to tell you  my simple summer rules to keep you cool while staying fabulous in a heat wave!

Keep your jewelry delicate and light!
The worst is to plan your whole look around a massive statement necklace and then be too hot to rock it for that special event!  Get yourself a selection of perfectly delicate go-to pieces to wear with everything!  The SGXOXO showroom always has a great selection of beautiful locally designed jewelry at your finger tips!




Keep your clothing minimal 
with fun and flirty summer dresses in light colors! 
Get yourself some fab little dresses for every event on your summer calendar!  Keeping your color scheme light will help you stay cool while incorporating some of my favorite trends like flowers and lace will keep you even COOLER!
