Minty Fresh

Hi there!

Today I am wearing a simple outfit that would be perfect to wear while running errands, meeting a friend for lunch, or just lounging around the house. I recently found this sweater at Forever 21. I think mint is such a pretty color and it reminds me of spring! (It is also currently the color of polish on my toes!)

Sweater Forever 21 ($19.80) // Jeans Levi's // Scarf Charming Charlie (2 for $20) // Boots Target: Merona (20% off on Black Friday) // Sunglasses Nordstrom ($12) // Ring Forever 21 ($1.80) // Earrings Francesca's

 The sweater itself is soooo comfortable (love that!), so I "dressed it up" a little bit with this pink and white chevron infinity scarf!

I was wearing Victoria's Secret lipstick, so I wanted to make a kissy face like a VS Model. My sister said I just look grumpy! I guess it's hard to "smize" behind a pair of sunglasses. ;)

Are you bringing out your spring colors, or do you think it's still too early? (It is only mid-January!)

Thank you for reading! :)

My New Obsession with Gold

Hi there!

It's Wednesday! We're that much closer to the weekend. :)

I keep hearing about this "Polar Vortex"! I complain when my husband turns the fan on at night when we sleep, but sheesh! Just hearing about these sub-zero temps is making me shiver!

Apparently the Southwest corner of the country missed the memo that it's supposed to be really, really cold right now--it's been a high of 70 degrees in my neck of the woods all week. Perfect temperatures for a cardigan and a light scarf. :)

Lately, I have grown a brand new obsession with the color gold, especially when paired with black or white! It's just so dang pretty! [[and shiny ;)]] I am loving my new white and gold infinity scarf from Charming Charlie--they currently have all scarves for 2 for $20, so if you're looking for a fun, easy way to accessorize an outfit, I suggest you head over there first!

On a completely unrelated side note, can I just mention how grown up I'm feeling lately? Last weekend, Michael and had dinner with a couple of friends and we brought a broccoli salad as our side dish [[OK, we brought onion dip and Ruffles chips too]]. This morning, I went to a spinning class before work. At 5:30 in the morning. By choice. And just look at the photos I posted today--I'm wearing a watch. Those are "grown up" things, right? 

A large part of it probably has to do with the fact I got married 6 months ago, but I just finally feel like I'm easing into adulthood. It's a little weird, but I like it.

Thank you for reading! Enjoy the rest of your week!
