cardigan love





Top: Mossimo  Sweater: Banana Republic  Belt: Old Navy  Jeans: 7 for all Mankind  Shoes: Jessica Simpson  Watch: Michael Kors 

I love waking up to cool mornings where a cardigan is the perfect layer. Cardigans are my favorite piece of clothing (as seen here and here). I think they can go with anything and they are so comfortable. I really like simple cardigans and sometimes have trouble finding them. I love the cardigans from J.Crew and Banana Republic.

Where do you shop for cardigans? Do you love them as much as I do?

What a perfect Sunday! The weather has been great and I had a day to myself. I slept in, cleaned up the house and then ran some errands. I also wound up at the outdoor shopping mall this afternoon. It was a great day to walk around outside and pick up a few new things including a fabulous new Kate Spade card case. I grabbed an iced tea and hit all the stores while enjoying the beautiful weather. Now I am looking forward to a quiet evening at home with my boyfriend. Sundays around here are known for great dinners and catching up on tv-- can't wait!

Hope you had a fabulous weekend.



march day fourteen: necklace

I decided to switch things up.

As you may have noticed, in my last post, I talked about taking pictures of things that are more meaningful. Instead of waiting until April, I am starting now.

Last night, Kristin and I went to Girls Night Out. We were not really sure what to expect other than we knew that we paid $15 and were told it was free drinks all night. Well, it was better than that! For our $15 ticket, we got a bag of goodies (snacks, sample beauty products, etc.), free drinks from 5-10pm and a night of shopping from cute vendors not in the DC area. We wandered around for a few hours sipping cosmos and picking out new clothes and jewelry. I came home with a few new necklaces and a new ring. Kristin bought a couple of dresses and some jewelry. We had a great night! I mean, how could you not? Drinks and shopping? It was pretty much heaven. 

I took a picture of my neon necklace I bought last night and I am using it as my photo of the day. I love how bright it is. It is hard to capture with my phone, but it is neon. The necklace, along with the 80 degree weather today, definitely puts me in the mood for summer. I can't wait for beach trips, pools and warm summer nights.

feb day twenty five: green

Saturday was a lazy day until about three pm. We went shopping for some new clothes for Brad. We ended up spending quite some time in the men's department but he got some great new clothes at some great prices. I love picking out men's clothes.
After our shopping adventure, we went somewhere green for dinner but I was too distracted by breadsticks to take a picture. I LOVE the Olive Garden. I don't care what anyone says, it's amazing. 

feb day thirteen: blue

The reason I chose my blue Brighton box today is because I am on a new kick of buying jewelry. I have decided I need some new accessories in my life and today was day one of new bling. I dragged Kristin to Macy's at lunch today in hopes of finding some cute new bracelets. It was quite a successful adventure. I found two really cute new bracelets and a pair of earrings. They aren't blue or else they would be today's photo. 
I still want to search for more fun accessories so if anyone has any great websites or ideas, please let me know! I was so insprired by all the cute accessories everyone had this past week so hopefully I can find some that compare.
