Look Book: Sail Boat Prints + Simple Denim

Jun 5, 2012

Originally, I was hoping to style something a little dressier for the blog - but errands happened! Today & this week I'm taking a bit of a breather (it's been a stressful two weeks) and focusing on making some healthier/feel good choices: eating well, doing my yoga again, and creating a better work schedule... no more feeling over-worked, please! I'm also excited to write out my goals later today, and get myself feeling organized!
As for the outfit... for me, a cardy paired with a cute blouse & a pair of my favourite jeans has always been a staple look for me. It's pretty much what I exist in when I'm working from home or just grabbing a coffee with a girlfriend. However, I am planning to doll up this blouse by wearing it with my black & white polka dot pencil skirt... oh-so soon! Have a great day, everyone! xo veronika
Outfit Details:
Cardigan - Thrifted

  26. Oh my goodness you are just the prettiest! I saw that top in the stores, but wasn't sure how to style it. This is perfect! And your hair...I am so jealous of your length and adorable bangs!

  28. And yet you still look super adorable! Every day wear is sometimes the most interesting to me because it shows off your natural beauty and style! :)

  29. I am such a sucker for this sailboat blouse - I fall in love with it all over again every time I see it. Such a great Old Navy find (they really do have some hidden gems, don't they?) There's nothing wrong with sharing a casual look, in my opinion. After all, we all have to run errands and wearing a skirt to run errands... Well, I've done it, and it just doesn't lend itself to the running part :) I can't wait to see what you'll come up with for this adorable blouse next, though!
