Hello!
It seems as if Mother Nature noticed that SoCal was having a premature Spring and decided to give us a few days of rain, so what better chance to break out my beloved sailor jacket and my rain day default outfit? I woke up yesterday morning knowing that I wanted to wear gray, maroon, and navy together; and that is how this outfit came to be. I almost forgot about this striped pullover. I wish I had discovered it sooner in my closet because I probably would've worn it a lot more now that I'm in my sweater-over-dresses phase. I've been so close to buying a navy/white striped pullover, but I kept telling myself that A) I have enough stripes and B) I probably had one somewhere in my closet, and look--I really do! Robert will probably shake his head in disapproval when he reads this (hi honey!).

Yesterday, Robert and I did some shopping and I scored a chunky knit cardigan from UO for only...$9.99! I didn't believe that was the price tag until I was paying for it. I can't wait to wear it! Actually I couldn't wait to wear it...I wore it to class after work yesterday. It was too cozy to pass up after a long day at work and a long three hour class ahead. I also picked up a graphic tee from H&M that's pretty different from what I normally wear, so it'll be interesting to see how I end up styling that. I had a $5 off gift card and insisted that I find something to spend it on. Robert tried to use his "well you'd be saving money if you didn't buy anything at all" logic, but...a girl wants what a girl wants--and I wanted new clothes yesterday. We also enjoyed some yummy fruit smoothies. He was craving ice cream, but smoothies is a healthier option. Jamba Juice has been my obsession lately. I think in the past week or so, I've had it at least four times and it's always the same--Caribbean Passion with a boost of immunity! Robert tried the February special Sweetheart smoothie which was also delicious! I think I'll get some later today...!

Until next post,
Jasmine

  9. That first picture with the carousel on the back is perfect! You look like one little stylish sailor, I love the look.
    Isn't it funny when boyfriends give "the look" or roll eyes when you want to get something that he claims "you already have something like that", haha!

  10. We're having a premature Spring today and ONLY TODAY. The temperature is going to plunge again tonight. I hate temperamental climate :(

    $10 cardigan at UO??? GET OUT. I haven't shopped at UO in awhile now. I kinda miss digging through their piles of sale clothes and accessories!

    What's in the February Sweetheart special? ;)
