There were so many aspects of Bridgerton that we loved, with the costumes making us swoon (along with the handsome Duke of Hastings). While we don't dress that way anymore, although personally I don't think I could remain in a corset all day long, the style is still an inspiration today. With elegant patterns and modest silhouettes, it's possible to feel like you're on the set of Bridgerton this spring and summer. I'm sharing some beautiful pieces that are very Bridgerton-like, as well as sharing who my favorite character is. I bet you can guess though...

It's officially March (which is crazy - how is it March already?!). Spring is literally right around the corner, which means the weather start to change, the days will slowly become longer, and flowers will start to bloom. Other things that will change include our wardrobe, with winter pieces being switched for spring and summer pieces that have been in storage. Sweaters will be traded for dresses and coats will be traded for swimsuits. One style accessory that doesn't have to be switched out just yet are boots, which springtime being the optimal time to transition your spring wardrobe with boots.

I had my heart set on the beautiful, lantern filled, canal city of Hội An as the perfect place to ring in the new year and to introduce myself to Vietnam.

I try to invest in coats that will last years as well as work with several different outfits. Most of the coats in my closet are several years old but still look and feel brand new despite being worn continuously over the years. They also continually pair with my style and outfits every year, even if my style slightly changes or evolves. Plus, finding coats that will remain a staple in your closet is both environmentally and economically friendly.

Let's face it, Argos will accept any excuse to be brought along on a fun staycation. Not many hotels are pet-friendly in Hong Kong, but a few of my favorites are and we can now add The Landmark Mandarin Oriental to that list of favorites.
