ABW Challenge: Day 53









Day 53










I know I've said this a million times before, but I LOVE this blazer. The stripes are just so complimentary and work great with a plain outfit. The dress is an inexpensive item I got at H&M (was less than $10), and is a basic spaghetti strapped top with an empire waist. I paired the navy outfit with my pretty pink bow flats to make it pop.

ABW Challenge: Day 7








Day 7










I forever am in love with this jacket. I picked it up at an H&M in France and have adored it ever since. It works buttoned or unbuttoned, still cutting nicely to my waist. I have usually limited it to spring and fall outfits. As a spur of the moment decision, I grabbed it before heading off to class. Luckily, it worked marvelously. The boat neck cable sweater underneath worked will with it, especially when I cuffed the sweater over the jacket. I am tempted to pick up a coral or yellow sweater to see how the different colors would work with the jacket.

If you can see, the nails are coincidentally colored the same shade as the necklace. I was a bit overtired and a bit stressed from school last night and started to dot my nails with white, pale pink, and dark violet polish over the lilac base. Surprisingly, I got a few compliments from them, so I guess they came out okay!

Shopping List:
  • Boat-neck pullover in Darkest Navy: JCP
  • Jeans: TJ Maxx 
  • Blazer: H&M

This set is dedicated to my teenage sister, who has great fashion sense but wishes to not broadcast it. She went through Polyvore and picked out whatever set pieces she liked, and to the 25-30 pieces she selected, there were 3 or 4 themes to them. Even though she swears she can't figure out what she likes in clothes, nautical is definitely one reoccurring theme.
