ah cardigan

this outfit is inspired by my sister, who wore bright cobalt jeans with a cute cream blouse with little black hearts and a black blazer this weekend. i loved how the cream and black played off with the blue. you all know that my husband finds cardigans perplexing. he took a few pictures and asked me if i put on a cardigan because i was cold. oh, little cardigan. you're just so misunderstood.






outfit - cardigan: gap merino wool, old, similar on sale here; blouse: zara, old, similar here; jeans: citizens of humanity, old, wore here, similar here, here, here; shoes: valentino rockstud kitten heels, here

  6. Love the bold cobalt blue jeans! I picked up a pair of cobalt blue pants this weekend and was a bit puzzled as to how to pair it with other pieces - you've given me great inspiration!

  7. I have the exact same Zara blouse and I absolutely LOVE it. Unfortunately, there was only a M left during sale time, but I don't regret the purchase one bit. The oversize fit just means that I can wear it a little more casually.

    1. i totally agree Joanna - the oversized fit would make it look so cool and edgy.

      btw you probably already know but jean at extrapetite.com did a post recently where she took in a blouse that was too big, if you were ever thinking of making it smaller.
