Curves Around the World: Color Blocking

Hey Everyone! It's that time again for another "Curve's Around the World" theme and this weeks theme is Color Blocking! I really like this trend because I love color and I like mixing different colors together. So I was excited for this weeks challenge because if you haven't noticed for the past few challenges I've been wearing a lot of black and white. Don't get me wrong I love wearing black and white but since it's summer I think that this is a great to wear color too. 

So when I was picking out my outfit for this weeks theme, I had another outfit in mind that I wanted to wear. But this past weekend California had this heat wave going on and man do I hate when the weather is like in the 100's! So when I went to wear the outfit I originally wanted to wear, I felt like I would be so uncomfortable and hot in it. (I originally wanted to wear colored skinny jeans) So since I wanted something more comfortable I pulled out this blue hi-lo skirt that I've worn before on the blog. But I really like this skirt because it's really airy and comfortable to wear. 

So when I chose the skirt I wanted to pair it with something that was lighter so I went with this mint colored top and my light yellow sweater. So the fact that my top was a spaghetti strap I wasn't comfortable wearing it alone, so I wore the sweater. I know I was doing so well with wearing sleeveless but I guess this day the insecurities won over. But I guess you always have good days and bad day, but hey at least the yellow looks cute with the rest of the outfit! :)

Since the challenge was to color block I wanted to keep my accessories neutral, that's why I chose to wear a neutral bag and sandals. By the way this is my first time I took pictures with the bag that I wore that day. I usually forget my bag or I don't really show it in my pictures, so I decided I would try out holding my bag in the pictures. What do you guys think? Is it better with or without the bag in the pictures?
