Hello!
This is the newest addition to my ever-growing cardigan collection. It's my first cashmere anything, and at $70, it's my first big splurge on anything clothing ever. I may have a lot of clothes, but they're cheap clothes. Is $70 even considered a splurge? It was originally $170 so I don't think spending $70 on it was too bad, especially since it's from J Crew so I'll know it'll last a lifetime. I was debating on this grey and an olive color but decided to go with this grey one since it's more versatile. I'm going to try to snag the olive one on Black Friday though! I feel sorry for my other grey cardigans because this one is so soft and comfy that I don't think I'll wear the others as often. It also has some pretty snazzy zippered pockets.

I don't know how or why but I ended up with a super matchy-matchy outfit today. I'm not really sure how I feel about it. Does anyone remember these oxfords? I wore them everyday last Fall and Winter and I'm bringing them back from the dead. On a grey day like today, I'm also bringing back these tights too. I just haven't found a pair of shoes that hold up to the Marais Maryjane Bow flats so I'll just have to wait until my birthday to get them (just two more weeks!). Either I'll be getting them for myself or Robert will get this major hint. But I think he knows. I talk about them every single time we go shopping and I try on some shoes. I've had my eye on them for months now. It's only a matter of time before they are mine!

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! I'm off to finish sipping my Caribbean Passion smoothie from Jamba Juice and wait for Robert to pick me up so we can watch Harry Potter tonight! I'm so excited!

Until next post,
Jasmine

  6. Love your hat paired with the pink bow! Super cute outfit :)

    Occasionally I'll splurge on one expensive piece of clothing. It feels a little like going on a rollercoaster - makes me a little unsteady on my feet hehe Looks great!
