Sailboat Sweaters

One of my most recent purchases is this sailor sweater from Old Navy. Im absolutely obsessed with it and I had to wear it to school the first day I got it. It's the perfect springtime sweater and it makes me happy looking at it. Despite the fact that a fresh sheet of snow is now covering the city, spring break is only 3 weeks away and i'm slowly clocking out on winter and school. It's so close, I can taste it. Anyway, I know i'll be getting much use out of this sweater. Talk to you soon.

 The trusty, old Target necklace is making a comeback

Making Statements

Going to a school with a strict dress code of collared shirts and non-jean pants, it's kinda hard to spice things up. Sure the new school year brings an entirely new wardrobe but after a few weeks you find yourself repeating outfits. Being an outfit repeater kills me on the inside. (It's probably because Kate Sanders ruined Lizzie McGuire's graduation day with this phrase.) With this in mind, I'm always on the lookout for sweaters, shoes, headbands, really anything to make my outfits look different but one the most useful things I've found that comes in handy for my dilemma are statement necklaces. Yes, they may be kind of an old subject but they keep getting cuter and cuter. It's the perfect way to change things up and make your outfit that much more interesting.

See what I mean? I just have a plain, white polo button down with polka dot JCrew skinny chords and navy sperrys. Classic but kinda boring. Enter this black statement necklace and my outfit just got that much cuter. (I got tons of compliments on it too)

And I'll bet you'll never guess where I got it. Give up? Target!!! I almost couldn't believe it when I passed by the jewelry section and saw it hanging there. Fashion finds are the best finds!!!!

Aren't I cute? (Actually I'm just embarrassing myself.)

Until next time,
