Hello!
Are you all having a lovely long weekend? I know I am! I wore this outfit last Friday. I practically lived in these shorts this past week, and to think I was hesitant to spend $8 on them at Marshalls. Marshalls, when I'm in the mood to sift through lots of clothes, is a nice place to shop. These shorts are super comfy and have some cute button detailing that's covered up by my cardigan. They were on sale and had been marked down several times since there were a bunch of red stickers on the tag. It's a nice basic to have around and having them in black make me feel better about wearing them to work. I think it's the fact that they are black that made me so hesitant. Apart from tights, I don't really own a lot of black clothes. I know a lot of bloggers favor it, but you know I love my colors. I've been loving wearing nothing but a braid in my hair lately. It's just so simple, and I save like 30 seconds debating which of my pile of bows I should wear. There's just something about braids that scream Spring and Summer to me. I've also been favoring wearing nothing but shorts and relaxed tops. I'm definitely getting over Spring fever and slowly catching Summer fever where super simple, fuss-free outfits seem to be the main symptom.
This bag is the same as my black MBMJ one, except it was my mom's. Last Fall, we got matching bags on impulse since a Saks Fifth Avenue was closing down near us. A little while after, she realized she didn't quite like it so much, now it's mine! I like the nude for these warmer seasons and will probably go back to my black one in the colder months. She handed it down to me right before Mother's Day. I think she was trying to play that she didn't have that many bags so that we would buy her the Chanel bag she wants. Sorry Mom. I'm a teacher, but thanks for the bag.
Until next post,
Jasmine
Jazzy! I love you in shorts! You look so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI also love Marshalls, sometimes you can get such great finds there. It's awesome that you have such a stylin Mom who gives you purses...I wish my mom owuld do that!
you look really good in those shorts! and what a deal at $8! marshalls and tj maxx are my favorite! you really do find awesome stuff in those places.
ReplyDeletemy weekend has been soooo lovely so far! more festivities await me tonight and who knows what tomorrow will bring!
Those shorts are super adorable! I yearn for the days where I can wear shorts, darn this weather in Vancouver :( My weekend has been filled with tons of deliiiicious food and much walking (in heels, I have no idea why I did that). Your Mom is hilarious, I would totally giveaway all my bags just for a much-coveted Chanel. Oh well, her loss is your win ;)!
ReplyDeleteThis is so different than your usual wares, but I'm loving it!! You look super cute in those shorts and I want to take those floral shoes from you right now! Very pretty!!
ReplyDelete90% of my wardrobe is black. I need color, color, color!

ReplyDeleteHey, I miss those floral flats of yours! So nice to see them back in an outfit :) And boy, that creme MBMJ is so adorable. I always love purses that have top handles and cross body straps. Very functional and versatile!
