Patterned Sweater

Outfits

This open-face cardigan has been a great addition for this winter. The pattern is fun, but is easily paired with a lot in my closet, both for work and the weekend. I wore this outfit last Saturday, finally putting together a shorts + tights look even though it wasn’t the best choice for the weather (hence the indoor photos). I hope you had a great weekend, and are having a good Monday! As good as Mondays get anyway!

She paired hers with a striped tee and large sparkly necklace and I paired mine with a flowy tank and vintage sequin cardigan.  It was so fun to take pictures of her and she is such a...

Fruit Stripes

Outfits

Something about this outfit reminds me of Fruit Stripes gum… the stripes part is obvious but I think it is the colorful packaging that completes that idea in my head. Anyway, wore this on Sunday to watch the Bachelorette finale with my friend! There is nothing better than my yellow scarf to add some color to an otherwise simple outfit. I have worn this scarf on many occassions and it is one in my collection that works for all seasons.

Black & White Secrets

Outfits

So this is an outfit I would wear for a night out with my girls.  But these days, at the end of the work week, as much as I want to go out and party with my friends, I want to make sure I am also as comfy as possible.  A light-weight lace back cardigan, breezy tank top and my polka dot pj shorts are the PERFECT way to achieve this.  Did I just say pj shorts? Yes these are my polka dot pajama shorts I recently picked up at TJ Maxx so I’d have a matching pair of...
