What’s this…a self-photo?? Ok, so the mirror is more dusty than I realized since it’s in the spare room (getting right on that), but I think it isn’t too bad. I’m not sure why it’s so fuzzy either. Oh well, I’m still figuring all of this out! I think I’m naming this one of my favorite spring outfits of 2013.  I originally tried the J.Crew Crystal necklace sweater on in the store sans button-up underneath and didn’t like it. Loved it on the rack, didn’t love the way my D-cup chest looked in it. But then I saw it on a friend of mine with a dotted shirt underneath and started to re-think it. And then it went on sale from $148 to $99 in the store with another 30% off and yeah, I was all over it. But I didn’t want to totally copy my friend (but I probably will when this Banana Republic shirt finally shows up from back order) so I decided to go the navy gingham route. And well…some navy blue Banana Republic Sloan pants and my J.Crew factory Emery flats in bronzed clay and I was good to go. I will be repeating this outfit with jeans on the weekends…possibly white jeans as well. The Factory button-down is very lightweight, so it was not too bulky under the sweater. I didn’t need a blazer today but I probably would have grabbed my navy J.Crew schoolboy had I needed an extra layer.

And here’s a close up of this beautiful sweater. No need to think about jewelry! So, what do you think about the outfit? The only thing I can think of to make it more perfect would be a bright pink purse 🙂 Thanks for visiting!
