The Cowl Neck Sweatshirt

Gap Find - love this cowl neck sweatshirt! My sister, Jen, is showing you this look today, I love the laid back yet stylish touches.  The cowl neck, drawstrings, and sewing detail gives it enough style to make it  the perfect throw on for a trip to the store.  You'll be comfortable and cozy yet still looking polished while out.  Check out all the colors and order one today!  Bonus: on sale :) 

Jen is wearing the blue heather! 

Tip: Invest in some fresh lounge clothes.  When you look good, you feel good!  

My sister decided to add silver bangles to her look.  Silver goes great with the blue heather sweatshirt, especially my favorite bangle, Living Water! Check out Alex and Ani - an amazing company right from RI!

Does it pass the like or LOVE test?

My color pallet was pretty plain today, a lot of tan with a pop of PINK.  Lets start with the shirt, this sleeveless top is always a big hit, it must be the detail of ruffled flowers.  I also love the color scheme of the fabric, the pink and tan go nicely with each other, a very soft look.  Today it was a business casual day for me, I pulled out a tan pencil skirt.  Although you couldn't tell today, its pretty versatile because its high waisted, wearing a top tucked in is a very different look!  To cover my shoulders I added this rose petal sweater.  Its something I pull out of my closet all of the time, it goes with everything!  All three of these pieces were Marshalls finds - I LOVE that place.  

For accessories I went with my gold jewelry, my goto chunky watch and bangles from Alex and Ani.  I wore one of my favorites today - Pursue Happiness.  Short and sweet but so true.  

Now to my favorite part of the outfit - the SHOES.  I saw these shoes at Gap few weeks ago, but I ended up putting them back.  This weekend I was back in the store and just couldn't pass them up, I LOVE them.  I originally wanted a teal colored pair they had but I knew I would get more use out of the tan.  The wooden heel is definitely in, get yourself a pair!   






The just like or LOVE rule - If you're not sure if you should buy something, put it back and leave the store.  If you keep thinking about it a few days later then you actually do LOVE it and not just like - GO BACK AND GET IT!  This was the case for my new wooden wedges.  Do I really need them? Probably not, but I realized I did really love them because I kept wishing I had them to wear.  Most of the time I leave something at the store and forget about it as quick as I walk into the next store.  Try this test next time your out shopping, I swear it works!

Watercolors and Living Water

I think I've decided that dresses are just much more comfortable than pants. Again it rained, so I did not want to deal with bottoms of wet pants - out came the boots (Steve Madden)!

For the dress I chose a watercolor gray above the knee. I love the teals, pinks, and purples! This was of course a TJ Maxx find! I added a gold waist belt and a layered gold necklace for some shine!

For the wrist, I went with my go to watch and Alex and Ani bangles. On my way home I stopped and added a new bangle to my collection. I've been thinking about it since I watched a video about it - Living Water. I love the color and teardrop shape but the best part is your helping a great cause!

Providence's secret gem....

I haven't been since Christmas but today I went to my favorite jewelry spot in Providence! It hasn't changed, almost all of the earrings are $3 and pretty much everything else is under $10!  Every time I go, I swear they are putting new stuff out the whole time I'm there.  As soon as you walk in the door you get the treasury hunt feeling - girls, I know you understand this! Its the perfect place to kill your lunch break on a Friday afternoon, as they are only open on Thursdays and Fridays and occasional Saturdays.  Today we were able to hang out with the owner herself while we made the rounds from room to room.  She pulls off some pretty cool statement pieces including the funky bracelet below!  I know I've been holding out on you, but here it is, the store that you MUST take advantage of!  I am literally obsessed, how can you not be when there are so many great finds at amazing prices.  She makes having a collection of fashion pieces affordable!  

SO - Write this down and put it on your to do list - its a must!
