I'm loving the H&M Garden Collection Orange dress :)
Beautiful! If I could get married again, it would be in an Elie Saab number. *sigh*
Pastels are so springlike, probably that's the reason I'm beginning to like them more and more. That Burberry trench is awesome!
Lovely dresses, I can't wait for spring and summer! Thanks for the chance to win!

Awesome .......
Giveaway or no giveaway, I love this post. I particularly love the Chanel outfit, the cutie central bow and heart shaped hair just look so buttoned up and gorgeous.
I'm more and more convinced that you need to go work at Vogue! I'm not a huge fan of pastels but you have swayed me...
I'm always drawn to Blumarine dresses. They're a bit ethereal.
Thanks for the pastel round up, CC.
I love pastel colours, especially nude pink. It goes so well with the lingerie trend too!
And them Burberry Prorsum trench coats are just fabulous.

Stunning! Great post x

Awesome post as always CC
Love the pastel colour.
Haha I have that Pono necklace in a greenish blue color. It's absolutely beautiful.
And pastels! If I could, I would create my entire wardrobe in pastels!
I am so glad pastels are making a comeback. I think after so many wretched bridesmaid dress disasters in the 80's women ran from pastels screaming. I am glad we are able to make amends and slowly bring pastel back into our wardrobes :)
beautiful stuff!
love the pastels!

So gorgeous! Awesome giveaway :O)
