To be honest, I didn’t plan on making a blog post about this outfit, but I had so many DMs about my Janis Joplin tee that I thought I’d go ahead and do an outfit post!
It’s been “weekend vibes” all week around here … yay for my spring break! The weather has been a bit chilly, but that’s okay because I have this cute embroidered sweatshirt to wear!
This month we’re ready for spring fun in our gingham!
Here’s my casual take on the gingham trend. This Loft purple gingham shirt is a favorite of mine. You might recognize it from my blog banner. (Who says bloggers never wear the same thing twice?) And I wanted to add this colorful vintage scarf that was my mom’s into the mix. I love the way it looks tied to my Lilly tote.
I felt a bit like Goldilocks recently looking for a chambray shirt. The shirt was either too big, too small, too dark, too light, too short, too stiff, or too boxy. So this middle-aged Goldilocks was thrilled to finally find this shirt that was just right! It’s Cloth and Stone (an Anthropologie brand) and I found it at Crossroads Trading, a store with new and gently used clothing to buy, sell, or trade.
It was the perfect color and length for me and so soft too. Isn’t the back detail cute?
