You Can Honestly Never Go Wrong With A Loose Fitted Striped Sweater

Outfit: Sweater - H&M, Shorts - F21, Boots - Soda

Kind of  an unconventional staple I think every woman should supply in their closet is a loose fitted striped sweater. I have a couple and they get worn quite often. Its such a great item for all seasons because I will wear it in the Spring with shorts, throw it over a suit in the Summer, wear it over leggings in the Fall and bundle it up in the Winter with a scarf and jacket. I love them. Whenever I see a good on one a rack I almost always buy it because what if something happened to one I already have?

I Own Far Too Little Green

Outfit: Dress - Meadow Rue (Anthropologie), Shoes - Jeffrey Campbell, Necklace - Vintage


As the title of this post states, I own far too little green. Which is interesting because it is such a striking color. Maybe it is so striking because how often do you see someone wearing a solid green dress? I had been eyeing this dress at Anthropologie for about a month now. Initially it was the drop waist that attracted me. All my dresses hit my waist so this is a perfect change up to my closet.

I am also really, REALLY into the color orange right now. Last Summer, I was in Nordstrom and found these shoes. I loved them, but at the time I hadn't bought Lita's yet so I couldn't bring myself to buy this lovely pair. Well sometimes waiting pays off (sometimes). Last month, I went to Nordstrom Rack and found the exact pair in my size and color in the clearance section for $48.99! I'm still reeling over this purchase.

I can't wait to wear this dress on St. Patrick's Day :)

Not Just Any Mint Top

Outfit: Shorts - Old Navy, Shoes - Elle, Top - Left of Center (Anthropologie), Necklace - Charlotte Russe


Have I mentioned to you guys that I am obsessed with anything and everything mint? When I saw this top at Anthropologie I immediately love it because of the color, then I saw the back. I LOVE finding tops with openings in the back, especially ones that will show show back without forcing you to wear a bandeau or unique bra. This top is at Anthropologie right now at a great price point (for Anthro) of $38.00.

I already now that as the warm season approaches, the mint items in my closet will start to multiple.

Also, I found these amazing cobalt mary jane heels at Kohl's for 16.99! Are they not the cutest thing?! I am so obsessed with the shape of the heel.

Taste of Summer

Outfit: Dress - Love Stitch, Shoes - Steve Madden, Bracelets - Cotton On

We had a lovely taste of Summer this weekend so naturally, I spent the day poolside. Remember when I was complaining about Summer and ready to bring out my Fall clothes? Well, that got old fast.

I bought this dress on eBay a year ago because I love white in the summer. I also love the loose, flowy peasant style of this dress. It also makes a lovely bathing suit cover up.

Can the weather be like this everyday from now on?

Pushing Daisies

Outfit: Purse - Jason Wu for Target; Silver Oxfords - Jessica Simpson, Top - TJ MAXX, Necklace - F21


Do you guys remember that show, Pushing Daisies? I loved it. The fantasy, fairytale aspect of it hooked me instantly. Really anything that reminds me of fairytales catches my attention easily.

Wearing this purse has me lusting for hot summer days. The kind of day where your skin is tan, your hair is messy and all you do for the entire day is lay out and take breaks to eat. It's ironic that I so longed for cool days when the air was hot and now I can't wait for a blazing hot day. It's also a bit funny that I am in Utah as I write this and there is snow on the ground. And I do love the snow. I guess I'm a little indecisive. But I think thats okay :)

I think I am also ready to get out of my boots, because I have been wearing my silver oxfords a lot lately. Such a simple outfit with fun accessories. I love outfits like these.

Fishtail Skirt

Outfit: Shoes - Jeffrey Campbell Litas, Fishtail Skirt - Forever 21, Top - H&M, Belt - Forever 21

It took me a loooonnggg time to find the perfect fishtail skirt. I mean, seriously, I have tried on countless and just haven't found one that works. Plus, I really wanted it to be black. One day, on a visit to F21 I found this skirt but it was in a nude color. It fit perfect and, although it wasn't black, it fit just how I wanted. 

(NOTE: Be nice to sales associates, they will help you in your time of need.)

As I was paying for my items, chatting up with the F21 employee, I mentioned I had really been look for a black fishtail skirt. She looked up, told me to wait one second, and returned from the stock room with a box full of my skirt in black. She told me that it just came in today and pulled out my size. 

This skirt is perfect I've been wearing it with black opaque tights lately and I just love the way the tail flows behind me. For those of you still in search of the perfect fishtail skirt, don't give up. Your skirt is out there somewhere ;-)

Spikery Binx Scarf

Outfit: Scarf - Jason Wu for Target, Shoes - Deena and Ozzy, Jacket - Versace for H&M


Greeting for snowy Salt Lake City everyone!

I am so excited because I will be spending the next two weeks with Ryan celebrating Valentine's Day and our five year anniversary. I am just getting over a sickness so the blogs have been scarce, but I am finally feeling better and back at it.

The cat scarf I am wearing is another little treasure I picked up at Target from the Jason Wu collection. Can you believe they only held three in the entire store? I love square scarves like this that you wear in an upside down pyramid around your neck. It's a fun shape and these scarves tend to be more versatile from fall to winter to spring because they are made of a lighter material. I own several scarves with this shape.

In an attempt to not buy any new clothing while I am here, I completely overpacked. I'm not exaggerating when I say my suitcases are completely stuffed. We will see how well this works out :)
