Two new outfits in one week, maybe I am starting to slowly get out of my rut of dreariness!
Last Friday the hubs and I went on a little trip to Nelson Bay, NSW to go whale watching and sandboarding. During our little break between the two activities we looked around in a few shops for a sweatshirt because I was chilled from the very cold ocean wind. Instead of finding a sweatshirt, I found this cool shirt.
This shirt really isn't my current style, but I thought it was really cute and unusual. So in the spirit of trying out new things, I went ahead and purchased it. I thought heck it's only $11, I might as well try to push myself in the name of fashion.
When I put it on for the first time, I thought I had wasted my $11(I'm really not that great with change). But then I thought it is nothing that a cardigan can't fix and bring together..this my friends is why I am madly in love with cardigans!
Shirt: Nothing over $22, cardigan & pants: Target, Shoes: Vans |
When paired with my black pants, black cardigan, and the ever worn gray vans I finally felt that I could pull of this shirt and not look like a huge dork! I must say, I actually really like it!!
A few days later with the sun shining down I was in the need to wear some more bright colors (and a dress).
Dress: Lane Bryant Tank Top: Old Navy |
So I grabbed my favorite dress, which I have worn many many times before, and a bright colored tank top. Under this dress I usually just wear a black lace tank top, because lets get honest it's the two colors are beautiful classics and you can never go wrong with them!
Necklace: Crave Jewelry |
But I am now officially in love with this color combo! I love the bright colors and that it is not a typical color scheme I would wear. I foresee the near spring and summer will be seeing this combo more than once! I might just save the black tank top for more dress up occasions and wear the teal one for a fun day look.
...a little extra...
shirt: George Mason University Cardigan& Shorts: Target |
It is back to school time at home and in honor of this I wore my Mason shirt. I worked at Mason for three years and always loved when the students came back from summer vacation filling the campus with their energy. University Life is my calling and I feel blessed to work with students and help shape their futures! (p.s. notice the bright colored cardigan...if you haven't guessed it is finally spring in Australia!)
