Neon Mint + KC/BB.

I attended the first KC/BB (Kansas City Blogger Brunch) with a few of my blogger pals. Ladies-who-brunch sort of screams midi skirts and a cardigan, but it was a chilly morning in KC so I opted for skinny dark denim and tall boots. To bring in the spring, I grabbed a floaty mint tee and layered on some serious statement jewelry.

I layered the super huge Courtney bib from BaubleBar under a neon orange + mint statement necklace. A little over the top, for sure, so I chose a solid-colored tee and didn’t wear competing statement earrings. A quick bracelet stack to add some more color:  a neon orange leather wrap bracelet from Gorjana + a gold bangle.

It was a lovely event, complete with mimosas (bless!) and super cute gift bags. The Mail Chimp monkey hat was a hit with me, as you can see below.

I met some new friends and we swore an oath to meet up soon for Bloody Mary’s (PS- I’m holding all of you to this). Including my KCFW friend Jess from 26 & Not Counting, I had the pleasure of brunching with Shanley from Eat it Kansas City, Danielle from Framed Frosting, and Jen from Defining My Happy. A great way to spend a bright early spring morning in KC, for sure.

If you follow me on IG, you may have seen a flurry of macaron shots and place setting pics. The decor was too cute not to document.

  1. You are the cutest thing I’ve ever seen! I love this outfit and the way you layered on necklaces- so pretty, girl!

  2. What a pretty table! The girls did a great job!
    You rock the look, AS USUAL. 😉
    Have a great weekend!

  3. You absolutely nailed this look! So pretty and perfect for spring!
    Glad you had a good time at the brunch- I bet meeting other bloggers is cool. 😀

  4. Ashley, you look stunning. Love the jeans and boots combined with the lighter and brighter tee up top. So cute and a bit different. You slayed the brunch look!

  5. Oh that brunch looked WONDERFUL, who ever put it together and was responsible for all the details did a great job. And love what you wore.

  6. hahah that monkey hat is so awesome!! and because of your post of that rose macaron i was craving them all day and had to go out and buy a few for myself including rose actually!

  7. You look gorgeous as usual. I could have sworn that was 1 necklace, they are both stunning pieces. All of these blogger events sound so awesome. You had me at mimosa! LOL

  8. hahahaha, that had made me burst out in laughter. Very fun post. Thanks for joining with Agi and me on this weeks Hop. Yay.

  9. Another great look from you! Love that you’re wearing tall boots into spring- I always put mine away too early, LOL.

  10. I just love this cropped t-shirt! It’ll be so cute in the summer with shorts and skirts. Excellent styling!

    The brunch looks so fun and the decor was absolutely gorgeous! Alissa and the girls did a great job, wow!

  11. You can make anything work, Ashley! I swear. I would only think to wear bright spring pieces like this with white bottoms like skirts and shorts, but I really like them paired with darker jeans and with what I would call “winter boots.” (Although I know that’s silly.)

    You look awesome and are a style inspiration for me!

  12. I absolutely LOVED your outfit at the brunch…but I don’t think I ever got the chance to tell you that! haha. Also, you did a kick-ass job layering those necklaces like a pro.
