Hello!
I don't know why, but this is one of my favorite outfits ever. I felt so good in it all day long, and I haven't felt like that in a long while. This is a rare instance when planning an outfit the night before actually worked out successfully the day after. I was actually about to sell this skirt in my blog shop but since I'm on a shopping ban right now, I thought it'd just be best to work with what I have. I think I hesitated to wear this skirt when I got it during the summer because it's not the usual colorful, Spring/Summer florals. It does fit nicely in Autumn and Winter though! I just wish it would feel like Autumn here in Southern California. Today was 90-degrees and it'll be like this for the rest of the week too. I want to wear beanies, scarves, and my chunky knit cardigans! What's the point of finally finding some chunky knit cardigans if I can't wear them?
Have you heard? Kendi's doing another 30 for 30 challenge beginning Monday. I'm really considering joining! I'm already on a shopping ban so might as well make it last longer by doing a challenge! Let me know if you're joining! I don't know if I'll be doing the full 30 for 30 quite yet since my birthday will be during the challenge, so I just might do another modified version of it. I think last time's challenge was successful in teaching me the value of my clothes, but I'm starting to revert back to my old habits of shopping excessively.
My life is finally falling into a routine; albeit it's a hectic routine, but at least there's a comforting stability to the chaos.
Until next post,
Jasmine

Adorable skirt! The color of that cardigan looks beautiful on you! I'm terrified of the 30 for 30 challenge haha, but go for it!
ReplyDeleteUgh, I agree with you. This weather in california is atrocious. I live near irvine too! haha. i couldn't stand to wear tights in this weather. more power to you, you look adorable!

Haha yeah the weather here has been random too. I hope it cools down a little (not too cold hopefully)! Your outfit is lovely, I know that feeling about wearing an outfit you really like that makes you feel great! That skirt is cute too, I really like the calico print! If you do a 30 for 30 challenge, good luck!
ReplyDeleteAh this is too adorable, I love the tiny floral print :) This outfit is so you! I'm actually contemplating taking place in the 30 for 30, it'll be interesting to see how it works out. I'll probably modify it more to my taste though... We'll see!
ReplyDeleteFor me, You are so pretty with your red cardigan and cute skirt. Absolutely Nice!

This is one of my favourites of yours too. Love the red cardigan, they are a lifesaver for bringing colour to an outfit, aren't they? I love the print on the skirt too. I'd love to do 30 for 30 but I'm so unorganised.
ReplyDeleteYou truly look excited in your outfit. It's great when articles of clothing can make you feel so good:) If you do the challenge, good luck!! I wasn't able to post all 30 of my outfits from last time, but I did do it, and it was a lot of fun trying to be creative. I may do it again, but I need a few more cold weather staples in my wardrobe!
ReplyDeleteI love the belt! I think it adds a nice little color surprise :]
ReplyDeletethe print on the skirt is so cute! ^.^
ReplyDeleteI LOVE THAT SKIRT. I'm glad you didn't sell it because the pattern is gorgeous and you look adorable in it. this is definitely a favorite of mine too out of your recent outfits. (AND POLKA-DOTTED BOW? YES.)
ReplyDeleteI might do another 15 for 15 since i have commitment issues, haha. i'll email you about doing a dynamic duo during it! :D
i love that cardigan. you look so lovely.
ReplyDeletei wish i could do the winter 30 for 30..but i am passing on it this time. once a year is enough for me.
xoox

Hmm, maybe I should join, too! :D

This is one of my favorite outfits of yours ever too! I love the print on the skirt!
ReplyDeleteUgh 90 degrees? I think we must have traded climates because it's been in the 50s/60s here!
found you through jess and chictopia! your blog is really cute!
ReplyDeleteWhitney
You look ADORABLE Jasmine! :)
ReplyDeleteI love the cute print on your skirt and your cheery little red cardi! clothes always feel warmer when they have warm colors, no? :D
ReplyDeleteGosh, that skirt is ADORABLE! Love it with the little bow :)
ReplyDeleteI'm on a shopping ban, too, since I just got an expensive ticket. I'm just not sure I want to do a remix challenge... I think it'd be fun to do if I weren't so busy, but feeling restricted really doesn't inspire me at all. I think I'd just end up with all 30 pieces strewn on my floor, sitting in my underwear on my couch moping with two minutes until class starts... yikes.
I love your blog! I'm so glad Amanda selected you for a guest post :) Following on Bloglovin!
I'm doing it too! But only 25 for 25.. I cant handle 30 lol :)
ReplyDeleteTemperamental weather? tell me about it! It was so cold over the weekend, now it's nice and sunny. I can't decide what to wear without checking the weather forecast. Oh how my life depends on it :p
ReplyDeleteThis has got to be one of my favorite looks from you, too. It's fresh like the summer but warm like the fall :) And I love the touch of the leather belt!
