While I feel most in my element when wearing a sundress, I have to admit I’m glad to welcome back the season of leggings. They are just so comfortable and with the right pairing, can be appropriate for both work and play.
For today’s ensemble I mixed a little old with a little new. The Cynthia Rowley top was found at Marshall’s (priced at $19, retailed at $29). The print has the slightest blend of blush and tan, lined with black.
I bought the jacket at the beginning of last spring and after bringing it home, decided I just wasn’t in love with it. I threw it in my trunk to return on my next trip to T.J. Maxx. But, I am the absolute worst at returning things. The intention is always there, but the memory is not. So, needless to say I was a bit surprised to find the jacket when cleaning out my trunk and more surprised to find that I actually love it now. Guess it was just meant to be! It’s a Max Jeans jacket, priced at $49 and retailed at $120.
The leggings are Lauren Conrad for Kohls. I’ve had them for two seasons now and even after much overuse, they’ve stood the test of time and are still in perfect condition. I’d highly recommend her leggings but don’t jump to make the purchase; they often drop down to 50% off retail and then you can use a site like Retail Me Not to get an additional percentage off (card holders get even steeper discounts). I bought the booties last year at Ross for just $19.99 and have seen them there on this shelves again this season! The hat and necklace are both from H&M.
Do you have any pieces like the jacket that are a dual-threat, suitable for both spring and fall?
