Trying a Trend

Sweater: Missguided | Floral Blouse: Nordstrom Rack clearance (spring wish list) | Denim: 7 for all mankind | Wedges: Steve Madden (similar, and on sale!) | Tote: Rebecca Minkoff | Necklace: Gorjana | Earrings: Perry Street

Weather in the high seventies calls for some ice cream! Mike was keeping Patsy for the day, so we had to go somewhere dog-friendly. In any other city this might have posed a challenge, but not in Austin! There were plenty of places we could have gone that would have welcomed my sweet pup, but Amy’s Ice Creams was the obvious choice. We did this quick photoshoot in the alley before grabbing some deliciousness (I always get the Mexican Vanilla, their specialty).

I’ve been wanting to try this layered sweater/blouse trend for a while. I saw a lot of it on my Insta feed, but couldn’t seem to find one I liked. So, I decided to put together two shirts that I already owned. The floral blouse underneath is a piece I’ve had for a long time (and definitely one of my favorites) and the sweater was something I bought on a whim because it was marked down so low! It ended up being more cropped than I thought, so layering it was the perfect solution. Also, I should mention that you’re going to be seeing a lot of this tote, and I’m not even sorry.  🙂

I was also really excited to wear two of the pieces I received in my Rocksbox this week! The understated, gold necklace was especially my style. I’m going to be sad to see it go!

Thanks for reading!
