I have no clue where Monday went. Literally ran out of hours in the day between work and finishing up more painting from over the weekend. That said, today you get TWO outfits!
Shoes: Target (clearance buy!)
Pants: NY&Co
Tank: Gap Outlet
Blazer: Kohl’s (on super clearance)
Ok, so I know that emerald is the Pantone color of the year or whatever, but I don’t have anything emerald, so this was the closest I could come to it. (And bonus! I did a little bit of pattern mixing with the shoes and tank…baby steps people!) I do love the emerald color and it reminds me of the Emerald City in the Wizard of Oz, which is one of my all-time favorite movies. I grew up dressing as Dorothy for Halloween and my hometown has a Wizard of Oz festival every year…it’s a big deal- we have a huge parade with the munchkins that are still alive…it’s pretty neat!
Shoes: Target
Jeans: AE (my favorite jeans!)
Sweater & scarf: Gap Outlet
I am loving the color of this sweater! It is a pretty violet/periwinkle tone, which works for Heidi and Marissa‘s Pantone-inspired Spring Color Challenge! I didn’t have this color in my wardrobe, but it is a very welcomed addition! The sweater and scarf were from the Easter Bunny—which has incredibly good taste right?! :-) (And yes, I still get Easter baskets…and yes, I am totally ok with that. In fact, I’m going to milk that as long as possible! HA!)

Linking up with Heidi and Marissa for their Pantone-inspired Spring Color Challenge!
Oooh, love the blazer!
I think I have a new found obsession with colored blazers..luckily, I am finding them cheap on sale or at Goodwill so it’s not breaking the bank! They are so fun!
I’ve been seeing so many fun colored blazers in the blogosphere lately, it’s making me want to find one for myself! Your emerald blazer is so pretty!
They are so perfect to add a pop of color to an outfit and really finish it off!
thank you for joining us with our pantone-inspired spring color link up. :) i wasn’t sure that i had anything in a true emerald shade in my closet either, but i think your blazer totally works. i’m starting to think i need a colored blazer and colored pants after seeing so many great looks featuring each so far this week!
Of course- what a fun challenge this week! Yeah the blazer was as close as I got to emerald–works for me! Thanks for stopping by Heidi!
I am crazy about your style and would wear every single thing in both of your outfits! The colors are both so pretty and I really like the patterns you’ve paired them with. I am so glad you joined us because I have discovered a lot of wonderful blogs, like yours! Thanks for linking up and I hope you’ll continue to join! :)
Thank you so much Marisa! I really appreciate it :-) I love this link up idea- so fun to play with some colors I’ve never worn often before now!
Love the bright green jacket the most, so fun. I love green at the moment
Thanks Imogen! Colored blazers are the best!
That blazer is great! I really like it with the striped top and leopard flats. Very cute. :)
Thanks Carly- yeah that was my attempt in starting to pattern mix…gotta start somewhere! :-)
I still get Easter baskets too :) Mine had a Yoda puppet in it this year! LOL!
LOVE IT! HAHAHA
Hahahah, I am now oblivious to pattern mixing. I didn’t even notice in your first outfit. I just thought, “what a cute outfit!”
Yeah you are a seasoned professional :-) I’m just taking baby steps at this point!
Your style reminds me so much of mine – very simple but very put together! :) I love seeing your blog posts every day. I am so jealous of your colorful blazer collection – I’m dying for a coral blazer right now!!!
