Anchor & Cable Sweater with Chambray

It has been a crazy week catching up with school after spring break, which is why I haven't had a chance to post in awhile. 

 

This in-between cold and hot weather has made getting dressed confusing. Currently my closet has all of my winter jackets in preparation for a snow storm, and spring clothing incase it gets to 65 degrees. 

I typically wear a lot of layers when the weather doesn't want to commit to being cold or hot. This army green surplus jacket has been great to wear for this because it keeps you warm, but is still light and neutral enough for spring time.

This jacket is from Target, and also has a removable fur collar. 

I purchased this cable sweater with anchors because the color and pattern was fitting for spring, while still being warm enough for these transitional colder days. 

I was surprised when I found this sweater while passing through Talbots. I typically never go there, but when I was with my mom on spring break, we stopped in and I noticed they had a few really cute things. This sweater just happened to be on sale, and you can get your own by clicking here!

I added a little sparkle to the boatneck of my sweater by wearing a chambray button-up with beaded detailing on the collar. This shirt is from Hollister, and has been extremely versatile in my wardrobe. 

For accessories, I wore these two pyramid bracelets. The red bangle is from Target, and the gold one is from Aeropostale.

You can never go wrong with a classic brown boot, and these are from Clarks.

Hopefully it begins to get warmer and I can rely on not needing a coat when I leave the house!

Varsity Sweater for Spring Weather

Happy Monday!

Even though there is snow on the ground, it is supposed to go up to 50° this week.

This varsity sweater is one of my favorite purchases that I recently bought from The Limited during their sweater sale (which you can still get for 30% off the sale price). I love the classic and preppy v-neck, and the navy and red contrast.

I have been interested in varsity sweaters for awhile, but have been hesitant because of the low-cut neckline (and because I already own quite a few sweaters). After I tried it on, I thought the v-neck was alluring without being over the top, making it easy to dress up for going out on a colder night.

Since this is such a dramatic neckline, I wore daintier jewelry. This silver ship necklace was actually a flea market find. 

This Notre Dame cable knit hat has been my go to this winter. In the spirit of St. Patrick's day, I feel that I can continue to wear it through March.

Since there still is snow on the ground, I am wearing my Hunter Boots. 

 I wore my pearl and silver bracelets as finishing touches. My infinity bracelet is a friendship bracelet from an Etsy shop. My friend Sam got them made for our friend group so that each of us has each others initials attached to it

I am also wearing my pineapple Alex + Ani bracelet.

I hope you are enjoying some warmer weather. I am going to try and spend some time outside during my spring break, and enjoy being with my family.

Pop of Yellow with a Plaid Blazer

I can't believe that it is already March! Where has the semester gone? It seems like just yesterday we were celebrating Christmas and now it is almost St. Patrick's day.

Let me start out by saying that I love blazers. They add the finishing touch to any outfit, and I love how sleek and tailored they look.

This plaid blazer is from Target. It has a variety of colors in the print, so I decided to wear my mint belt from J. Crew to go along with it.

I love the pop of yellow underneath the collar. It contrasts well with the navy blue and plaid pattern in the blazer. To continue the yellow, I wore this silk blouse from Banana Republic to complete the look.

The blouse has gold buttons, so I wore these gold bracelets to pick up those details. The pave linked bracelet is from Ann Taylor, and the blue jeweled one is from The Limited.  

I cuffed these Gap jeans and wore my short cognac colored booties from Pac Sun. 

No look is complete with out a little bit of lipstick. 

Even though it is still cold out, the snow looks so beautiful.

I hope you are enjoying the beginning of March! Next week is already Spring break at my school, and I hope the weather decides to be warmer because I am staying at home for the week. 

Until next time,

Thursday Twinning With My Roommate

Between the snow days, my roommate Mimi and I went shopping at our local mall and both fell in love with this blue and red embellished stripe sweater from The Limited. 

We decided to dress it up two different ways. Mimi paired it with a navy blue blazer from H&M to keep it more classic for day time, and I wore a navy blue leather jacket from 3.1 Phillip Lim for an edgier look that would work well for night.

The best part about this sweater is the built in embellished neckline. It is a versatile top because you don't have to find a necklace to pair it with, which is perfect if you need to pack light for taking a daytime look to night.

Another great perk to this sweater is that it is currently on sale! You can take an extra 50% off the current sale price by clicking here. 

We both finished our looks off with simple jewelry. Mimi wore a pave bow ring and silver watch, and I wore this Kiel James Patrick anchor bracelet in navy and white, stacked with a simple pearl bracelet.

Brown boots add a finishing touch.

Lastly, our monogram mugs. Mimi's "M" is Kate Spade, and my "C" is from Anthropologie. 

 (I have to admit that we don't usually match, but when we do, we go all out).

Christmas card anyone?
