Coral Pops

For This particular outfit, I was going for the monochromatic look. However I felt like I needed some color, so I decided to add my new coral bracelet and necklace. 

I absolutely love getting new accessories! I love the way that a fun bangle or a statement necklace can really transform an outfit. I'm also loving half of  the jewelry at Dress Barn right now. And J.Crew.

 I kind of wish that I had a closet full of jewelry.

Spring into Polka Dots

I think the title of this post makes sense when you see the outfit that I wore...lol.

So I have had this particular outfit tucked away in my mind for some time now, but I've felt like the colors were to bright and cheerful to wear during the cold winter months. I decided to wear this combo for Easter, as I kind of felt like an Easter Egg. I had planned on wearing a new cute spring dress that I recently bought, but the weather just wasn't cooperating with me. (Ok so the picture of the dress online doesn't do it justice. It's actually really cute and not so "old" looking in person). 

Okay so back to this outfit. Now these shoes are not actually coral like the shirt, they are more pink. However I like to pretend that from afar the two colors look similar and everyone thinks I'm cool for matching my shoes to my shirt. And my necklace.

Shirt: J. Crew Factory

Shoes: Old Navy
Necklace: Dress Barn (new item)
Earrings (not shown): My chocolate diamond earrings

Dress Barn has a few knock-off jewelry pieces right now. The necklaces and bracelets resemble those by Stella and Dot, and J.Crew.....at a much lower price. 

Can we just take a quick peak at this necklace for sale at J. Crew right now? I'm obviously searching for it's cheaper twin right now.

Spring Clothes

Lately I have been in the mind set that if I dress for the weather that I want, then maybe the weather will cooperate and be warm. You can tell by this outfit that I was obviously channeling Spring. This particular day was a bit chilly out, so I decided to add my half-cardigan with long sleeves to my floral blouse. 

I love this floral shirt. I mean, when I first got it, I wore it at least once every week. It was a serious problem that I had. Now I try not wear the same thing back-to-back (unless it is my work uniform).

Polka Dots and Coral

For once I'm actually posting an outfit while I'm still wearing it! I got this sweater right before Christmas, while I was shopping for the man's mom. The Limited was having a 50% off store wide sale, so I knew that I had to check out the racks. I saw this sweater and knew that it had to be mine as I have been looking for a polka dot sweater for some time. I had not planned on buying myself anything, but I just could not pass this sweater up.I ended up getting the man's mom this sweater for (one of her many) Christmas presents. (He wanted to give her clothes for Christmas, but he didn't know what to get for her. Instead he gave me some cash and said have fun shopping...which of course I did!)

The man and I have been running errands all day, and are going to look at a condo this afternoon. I wanted to be comfortable, but still look grown up for the condo showing (lol). I was going to pair my purple pants with this outfit, but it was way to bright for January. However, once spring starts to roll around...I'm totally wearing it.
