Perhaps I am a little late on this trend… oxblood, burgundy, maroon, whatever you prefer to call it. But I recently thrifted this burgundy blazer and have been obsessed with it ever since. It has been pretty cold here the past couple days and if you couldn’t tell by my fake happy expression in these photos… I am SO ready for spring.
Happy thoughts… happy thoughts…
Also didn’t this title make you think of Jojo’s song? It’s okay, go ahead, you know you want to!

February 21, 2013 at 12:28 PMPretty! Has anyone ever told you that you have PERFECT eyebrows? I have eyebrow envy! 🙂
Rachel
February 21, 2013 at 1:59 PMAwww thanks Rachel! That’s so sweet! I have been trying to “perfect” them for years… I am happy with them these days 🙂 But I use filler to make them look this way! (actually right now I use my Urban Decay Naked Palette) cause it is awesome at everything 😉

February 21, 2013 at 2:18 PMThe burgundy is so pretty! I can’t stand to call it oxblood, it sounds scary 🙂 It’s been so cold that I can’t even bear to wear skirts. You go girl! Heather
Rachel
February 21, 2013 at 2:19 PMThanks love! Yeah, oxblood just seems weird to me haha! It was really COLD yesterday when I wore this, but I NEED to do laundry. Only one pair of clean work pants. So bad!

February 21, 2013 at 4:07 PMIt’s a beautiful colour that I cant wait to wear again in the fall/winter and maybe even cooperate in my spring looks. That colour flatters your skin tone and makes your beautiful blue eyes pop Rachel 🙂
