Navy + Green

I promise you this blazer is actually navy and not black. I was on the lookout for a navy blazer for sometime as it is a staple of my "work wear." My only other navy blazer was completely worn out from all its use and had to go, but thankfully I found this blazer on SALE at Nordstrom Rack for only $9 (it was originally $62...what a bargain, right?)! Not only was this blazer incredibly inexpensive BUT it is also incredibly comfortable and this is no exaggeration. It literally feels like I'm not even wearing a blazer and that makes it a true winner.

Gift Guide: For the Girl Who Loves Stripes

I love stripes so I figured there would be more than a good handful of girls out there who love stripes as well. The great thing about this gift guide? Everything is under $40 (except for that beige & navy striped top) AND the tops from J. Crew and the striped phone case from Madewell are on SALE!

Pastel Blue + Ankle Boots

If you read my blog, you'll know that I have a thing for colored denim. I just think they add a little extra something to an outfit. But what I love more than colored denim is ankle boots, particularly suede nude ankle boots. Why do I love them so much? Because you can wear them no matter the season (spring, summer, fall, winter) AND they go with EVERYTHING (pants, shorts, skirts, dresses)!

I've gone through pairs of these because once I purchase them I tend to wear them every single day until the heel wears down. I found this pair at Target and they were everything I wanted in an ankle boot, but didn't purchase them right away. So a few months later, I go back to find that my beloved booties are on CLEARANCE and, of course, I made my move and brought them home. And the rest is history.

Burgundy + Stripes

I figured I'd add a new section to my blog and start including 'outfit of the day' posts (just to make it a bit more personal). Now, I don't have a great quality camera or iPhone/smartphone so my little Samsung Brightside phone will do for now. For today's outfit I'm wearing my all-time favorite shirt. I probably wear this top more than I should but that's because I LOVE stripes and I love the boat neck/classic look of this top.
