Spring Flowers

Cardigan: M+O silk cashmere
Tank: american eagle
Jeans: M+O slim
Shoes: Loeffler Randall

I love, love, love this tank top. Apparently a lot of other people like it too. When I walked into work on Thursday, a male co-worker commented that every girl he knows either owns or wants this tank (he was obviously exaggerating). At least one of my co-workers owns this tank. I love it because it is super soft, and has happy brightly colored flowers on it. There are a ton of colors on it, and therefore I can be sure to match it with any one of the array of colorful cardigans I have in my arsenal. This citrine cardigan is growing to be a regular staple in my work wardrobe. The bright color makes me happy.

I Heart Plaid

Cardigan: Gap
Dress: aerie
Leggings: aerie
Boots: Steve Madden

Another cold day of school! This outfit together with a pashmina scarf and a north face jacket kept me nice and warm between classes. I adore this cardigan, it has a waffle texture and is extremely comfortable.

The dress is a plaid chambray dress from aerie, I am pretty sure it is meant to be a cover up for the summer, but I loved the soft plaid and wanted to wear it now. They also have this dress in a light denim, I am wanting to pick that up sometime soon. Love this dress because it has pockets! The straps are also detachable, and I can definitely see myself wearing this to the beach.

My boots are disastrous, a close look will show that they are way too beat up. These poor boots are the boots I turn to when it is rainy, slushy, or snowy out, because they have already been really worn out. I do love them a lot, may have to replace them if I see the same pair on sale somewhere. These are perfect for walking on the salt covered sidewalks at school.

I love this comfortable, warm, and casual look. Apparently this weekend we are supposed to have 60ish and 70ish weather, so I am very excited.

Snow Day!

On Sunday night, the east coast was hit with a major snow storm. I had an exam on Monday, and of course stopped studying the moment I realized the snow was piling up. Now it is Tuesday night and I am cramming for my mid-term that got postponed until tomorrow. I pretty much stayed holed up in the house all day Sunday and most of Monday, but I was getting cabin fever and was itching to get out. So yesterday, we decided to go sledding! There is a park near by, with a pretty decent hill, and a great number of people from the neighborhood came out to enjoy the pretty powder!

I was freezing though. You would think as someone who had grown up in New Jersey, I would have a higher tolerance to cold. I have serious issues with the cold. For one thing, I hate getting dressed for cold weather. No matter what I wear, it's going to get covered up by a coat anyway (which explains my obsession with outerwear). I just don't feel as cute in cold weather, all covered up. Dresses are one of my favorite things to wear, but tights are such a pain to put on. And I've given up on warm and cute footwear that aren't boots. Which is why I wear boots all winter long. Today, I should have worn boots while headed to work, but of course I decided to wear ballet flats. Bad call on my part. Before I even stepped into my car, a ton of snow got into my shoes since the driveway wasn't cleared yet. FAIL. My outfit today wasn't even worth posting about, just a solid cashmere sweater with slim jeans, ballet flats, and a polka dot scarf. Blah.

I cannot wait for spring to come! I'm dreaming of floaty dresses, flip flops, tank tops, sunglasses....

Breaking the Rules

Sweater: M+O silk cashmere cardigan
Top: M+O striped tee
Jeans: M+O white bootcut
Shoes: Bolo wedges

I wore this to work on Saturday. I know its not really the season for white pants quite yet, but I never really followed those rules anyway. I have spring fever and even though the weather isn't cooperating just yet, I figured wearing white jeans to work couldn't hurt. I parked really close to the entrance and ran in! I can't wait to wear these all the time this summer. I may get a pair in the straight fit.

I love white denim because it goes with everything. You can wear it with dark, light, bright, or muted colors, various prints, and it all goes together perfectly. The only thing that worries me is keeping them clean, but I am trying to be careful with them. I love it with the striped tee (so nautical, yay!) and I find the white refreshing after a winter of dark denim.

My New Favorite Tee

I am such a sucker for all things that are soft, as well as all things that are striped. I just love the nautical look so much. We just got the Sheer-stripe Scoop-neck Tee in at work, and as soon as I touched it I knew I had to have it. I bought the red one first, but I also bought one in navy. They are super comfortable, ultra soft, and pretty flattering on everyone I have seen try this on. I wore the navy to work yesterday with a pair of white bootcut jeans and my raspberry silk cashmere cardigan. No photo because I was exhausted after work and wanted to change into sweatpants ASAP when I got home, but I promise you that this tee is adorable.
