What I Wore Today....


Items in this set:
J Crew pants, $80
J Crew sweater, $62
J Crew blouse, $98
Tory Burch flats, $195
J Crew bag, $295



I'm kind of digging the new polyvore re-do of their site. Now it tells you what the item is, how much it costs, etc. Saves a lot of wear and tear on me trying to figure all that out- thanks Polyvore, you're like a trust cup of coffee in the morning.

I've been MIA for a few days- according to my blog, I've been nude for, oh, let's say 5 days? I guess I've had a rehash of older styles I've created, and rather than trying to reinvent the wheel, I just wear it quietly without blogging.

Today, I took a little old with a little new. I can't say that I've gone gaga over the new stuff at jcrew. I don't like to harp on any company and their style team, but I'm thinking this year is a bit...drab and uninspiring. There, I said it.

So, with a little bit of creativity, I got out my navy cotton Jackie cardigan, my black Minnies (I literally live in these on my fat days), and my J.Crew Vita Metallic Cami in navy that I think I got in last year's winter sale. I didn't wear it until now because I didn't love the Simone cardigan it was paired with, so it's been dangling on a hanger in my closet, waiting to be worn and loved. Today, it got it's shot.

I grabbed my new aran silver metallic scarf to balance it off- warm and very sparkly and threw on my usuals: opera pearls, black patent flats, j.crew uptown tote, ring and watch. Oh, and my Jackie O shades.

What I wore today...



Sometimes, the colors your wear will define your mood. I used to be afraid of colors, sticking with darker colors, but I found wearing brighter brights can really cheer you up (not to mention the others around you!) I'm finding that I really love these rosette chiffon belts, and that they really give the outfit the perfect yipppppeee! of color.

What I wore to work today!



Feeling zoo-rific today. This is one fantastic cardigan. It's called the intarsia weave, which means if you flip the cardi inside out, it looks like each yellow block is woven into the cream parts of the cardigan. Tedious, I'm sure, which is why this cardi is so special. It's 14 gauge merino knit, and lightweight, yet keeps the air conditioning from freezing me to death. 3/4 sleeves, button up, it went perfectly with my Cafe Capri's in British Khaki.

I heart this cardigan!!!
