Chambray - Yay or Nay? {Pink Week - Day #2}

Hello and welcome back to day 2 of PINK WEEK! Tuesday through Friday, I will be sharing how I styled my pink skinnies... So be sure to come back and check them out. And if you like what you see, pin it, tweet it or share it! {See Day #1 here}Today I bring to you pink skinnies with chambray! Have you jumped aboard the chambray bandwagon yet? I'm not sure if I'm completely loving it yet or not.

I'm usually the type of person who hates a new trend until its been around long enough to either be almost out of style or I see it long enough for it to grow on me. For example... Flats, hated them! Well I thought they were cute, but just not on ME. I have big feet, a size 9, and I thought flats looked awful on me...Made my feet look bigger. It took a long time before I decided to buy a pair, and feel confident in them. Before that I would try them on, feel insecure thinking my feet just looked HUGE in them, and then walk out of the store. But now, they are my go-to shoes!

Another trend - skinny jeans. Being the big girl that I WAS, just the NAME scared me. No way was I gonna wear skinny jeans with my big butt and fat thighs! But I had seen plus size girls wear them and look GREAT! I just wasn't that confident, then. I stayed away from that trend for a while. My flares were my best friends! :) Then a little before I started my weight loss journey, my sisters had talked me into buying a pair. They convinced me I looked great. I was iffy... But got them anyways and ended up loving them. Now as you can tell, that's mostly all I wear.

Now "Chambray" I also instantly hated! My first thoughts... They are JEAN SHIRTS people! Ew. Why is jean so popular right now? And whats this "chambray" everyone keeps calling it? HAHA Yeah I like living under my comfortable rock sometimes. ;) I just didn't GET it. I wasn't liking it at all. However, like I said, as things do... They grow on me. I started seeing more and more outfit posts with people wearing chambray. And my mind went from "ew" to "ah- that's cute". I started really liking the way people were styling chambray. I still thought (and partially still sort of think) the trend is not for me though. Like, its cute and looks great, ON OTHERS, but not me.

But I decided to be on the look out for a chambray shirt that maybe I could try to work into my wardrobe. You know, test it out. Since I was iffy and didn't want to spend a whole lot of money on something I might hate. I found this shirt super cheap at Walmart. I had a few ideas for it, and after trying them I didn't like them. Then tried it with my pink skinny jeans and was pretty pleased. I wouldn't call this my favorite outfit, but I like it enough.

What do you think? Chambray, Yay or Nay? Should I keep this outfit in rotation? And what are your thoughts on chambray? Also, whats your usual reaction to new trends? DO you jump on board right away, or are you more skeptical and wait till the buzz dies down a little before jumping on board? By the way, if you have outfit posts wearing chambray, please do leave a link in the comments! I'd love to have more inspiration on how to wear it. ♥
