Mixing Colors & Patterns

We all know by now that I am certainly not one to shy away from bright color, or a fun pattern, and mixing the two (when done well) is perfect for spring. I tend to gravitate towards organic, and floral prints in the spring, since spring is all about everything coming back to life. Don't get me wrong I still love geometric prints, I just don't wear them quite as much in the spring. Now ideally when choosing a color to mix with your pattern, you would want to choose one of the colors in the pattern that you want to bring out or draw attention to. But sadly we don't live in a perfect world, and sometimes you can't find a "match" and that's okay, instead of settling for a almost match, find a color that complements your pattern. I have linked some of my favorite spring patterned items bellow for a little inspiration. Also check out my friend, and amazing blogger, Caitlin's post on her favorite colors for spring here.

2014 Favorites

I have rounded up 10 of my favorite posts from 2014, looking back on what an amazing year it was. It is so much fun to see how my blog has evolved, along with my style, and how I have gotten to know my readers over the past year. I can not explain how excited I am to start 2015 with y'all, we have many fun times ahead of us! Matt will be starting his new job in January, so bear with me as I find out who will be my new photographer. I will hopefully be landing an internship for the summer, along with starting my senior year of college in the fall. So read along with me as I go though 10 of my favorite posts from 2014, and get excited for many posts to come in the new year!

Happy 1 Year Blogiversary !

I can not believe I have already been blogging for a year now, it has flown by so fast, and my blog has grown so much from my original "selfie" posts. I want to say a huge thank you to all of my followers and to everyone that has helped me get to where I am. I look forward to another year of blogging and hope that Stylish Sassy and Classy continues to grow. I also owe a special thanks to my amazing boyfriend Matt who takes all of my photos I definitely could not do this with out you. I thought now would be a good time to look back at a few of my favorite blog posts from over the past year. What is your favorite post? Also any advice for the next year of blogging?? Thanks again so much I love you all !!!

First Fall Plaid

You know it is really fall when you break out your plaid button downs. This is one of my favorite J.Crew light flannel plaid button downs from two years ago. But I will warn that it was a lose shirt when purchased and being a cheep college student I dried it, which I would not recommend because it definitely shrunk over the years. I am wearing my favorite Joe's Jeans and they are beyond comfortable they are my go to Saturday jean. I chose my red clutch because it really made what is a fairly simple outfit POP. How do you like to style your favorite fall plaid?
