Winter Pastels

Coat:  Victoria's Secret (very very old, great option here), Sweater:  Zara (old, similar here), Jeans:  7FAM, Shoes:  J.Crew (old, similar here, here), Necklace:  Anthropologie x Bauble Bar, Sunnies:  Forever 21

The weather this weekend was absolutely gorgeous. You know you have been living in the polar vortex when 50 degrees has you super excited. This desperately-needed reprieve put me in the mood for some springy pastels, which was my motivation when getting dressed on Sunday.

I never realized what a luxury it was to be able to leave the house wearing heels rather than snow boots!

Maxxinista

Blouse:  Equipment via TJ Maxx (similar on sale here), Jeans:  7FAM, Bag:  Louis Vuitton, Shoes:  J.Crew (very old, similar here with feathers! LOVE these), Watch:  DKNY (similar here), Nails:  Essie 'Borrowed & Blue'

It's very hard for me to take pictures early in the morning because I find the light is not very agreeable (and I'm still half asleep).  I had to snap these quickly this morning before leaving the house for a meeting.

I decided that this week ~ in honor of Independence Day ~ I would wear only outfits featuring variations or red, white and blue.  I realized quickly that my wardrobe lacks red but I have an abundance of white and blue.

I picked up this Equipment blouse about 6 months ago at my local TJ Maxx store.  I sometimes find it difficult to shop there because you literally have to weed through TONS of clothes to find the 'hidden gems', as I like to call them.  This top was just that ~ it was labeled 'clearance' and marked down to just $25!!!!!  Now that's a steal! I was instantly transformed into a Maxxinista!

Love these classic J.Crew D'Orsay seersucker pumps with grosgrain bow ~ I picked them up more than 5 years ago via Ebay!

Have a great week everyone!!
