Windowpane Scarf

Scarf:  ℅  Echen, Inc.

Sweater: Old Navy

Leggings: Forever 21

Boots: Kmart 

Loving this blanket scarf. It is big and versatile to add with some color to brighten up winter outfits. I love that the fabric is light enough that it's not too bulky and it's soft and not itchy. I tend to see black and white plaid paired most often with red, and even though I love that festive combo, I thought I'd picture the scarf with a baby blue 

for a more unique outfit.

Still can't get enough of nautical and stripes, so I couldn't pass up this cute necklace. 

 mr. shopfreak asked if I just got back from my sailboat when he saw me in this outfit. 

I probably had one in my past life.

True Blue

Convertible dress: Swimsuits for All

Hat: JCPenney, old

A pic at North Shore: packing was easy because each outfit was going to be based on trips to the beach. Love this convertible dress...I brought a couple of swimsuits to wear with it and used it as a skirt when laying out on the beach.  We were able to take all carryon bags and bypass the cost and inconvenience of checking in luggage. 

Printed Spring Dress

Dress: H&M $7 or less

Belt: JCPenney

Earrings: ShopLately

Bracelet c/o Charmedseed Studios

This long sleeve dress was perfect for 70 degree weather. 

I have this chart in my mind for dressing for the weather: 

60 degrees= pants/sweaters

70 degrees= long sleeves

80 degrees= short sleeves

90+ degrees= tanks

The boho feel of this dress was perfect for this personalized bracelet handmade by 

Charmedseed Studios. I love the distressed look and as always, anything that is customized. The bracelet has the mix of soft and hard with the metal and it has a copper finish that goes well with all the rose gold jewelry I was wearing. I love their "Wordspell" line, especially if you want a daily reminder of a phrase or special name. 

This winner of the $30 Stella & Dot gift certificate is Karen C!

On Loan

Plaid Shirt: Land's End, free with Swagbucks rewards

Sweater: Macy's, old

Purse: Target

Leggings

Boots: on loan from my SIL

So glad mr. shopfreak raided his parent's house over the holidays to grab us some snow boots. These ones are on loan from my sister-in-law and I love the rugged quality. I wore them all weekend in Tahoe and might just have to snatch them out of storage to wear a couple more times this winter. 

Striped necklace? I'm in!

Dress: Marshalls $8

Cardi: Target

Purse: Sway

Sandals: Steve Madden

Necklace: c/o Ace Commune

I had been admiring Ace Commune's jewelry and was so excited when they had told me to watch my mail. This pretty necklace was a fun surprise and I love how the black and white beads create stripes. Since I am addicted to stripes, I played that up in my outfit choice. I also brought in the blue and yellow through the rest of the look. This whole outfit was inspired by the necklace and I love how outfit inspiration can come from anywhere, 

even from the smallest of details. 

I may not have put this outfit together without it so I'm also happy to be remixing this look from my existing wardrobe. Be sure to check out the rest of Ace Commune's line: loving the simple, beachy and boho quality, especially all the tasseled pieces. 

You can also follow their Facebook feed. 

The winner of the arrowhead necklace is Tiffany!

Blue Green Chevron

Shirt: Susie's Deals $3

Skirt: American Apparel

Shoes: Sears

Necklace: Forever 21

Chambray Stripe

Maxi: c/o eShakti

Belt: Old Navy? 

Purse: on loan from my mom

I had the option of choosing another item from eShakti and since I had been coveting this dress, I decided I didn't want to miss out on a maxi that could be made to wear with flats. Since I'm so short, it's hard to find a maxi that fits. This one is unique in its stripes and the fullness of the skirt. It goes perfectly with my mom's LV purse and luckily she's letting me borrow it for a while. 

Somervell & Sailboats

Shirt: Target

Shorts: Old Navy, last year

Stella & Dot Somervell necklace

I recently picked up some printed shorts at Old Navy and realized that I hadn't worn these ones yet from last summer. It was the perfect outfit to showcase my new favorite layering necklace: the Somervell. I love how bold it is and I can't wait to try it out with more necklaces. 

A congrats goes out to Kristen @ Your Beauty Fix! You are the winner of the Breast Cancer Awareness Necklace. Thank you to Anci Decor Jewelry and to all of you who entered.

Of the Sea

Shirt: Charlotte Russe

Shorts: old

Necklace: Stella & Dot Serenity, email me to order

Flip Flops: Payless, old

Besides sundresses, I have entirely too many tank tops in my closet. Here's one of my clearance finds.. I love the blue ombre print. It's actually a sheer tank with another tank underneath and it's another thing that goes perfectly with my Serenity necklace. 

The Serenity is even more versatile that I thought. 

Oh So Blue

Shirt: Gap, old

Shorts: Forever 21 $4

  

Top Bracelet: Local store

Bottom Bracelet: H&M

Ring: Loft $7, last year

Personalized Necklace: c/o Charmedseed Jewelry

One of my favorite things is anything personalized. I can't get enough of anything monogrammed and since I love custom jewelry so much, 
I'm running out of ways to use my family's initials! Then I saw Charmedseed Jewelry's 
"I heart you necklace" and I knew I wanted the punched out heart. 
I was surprised to find that the heart is actually cut out with a saw! 
Aren't you so impressed? 

I'm loving this piece and can't wait for all the layering possibilities! I decided to wear a simple white shirt that wouldn't detract from the necklace and my new printed geometric shorts.  I kept checking out geometric prints this summer so I was really excited to find these for only $4. I stayed with the blue graphic theme in my jewelry too. 

Charmedseed Jewelry is giving one of you a necklace or a bracelet!

Blue Ruffle

Dress: Ross, old

Bracelet: Swarovski, gifted

Brought this out from last year..I loved it back when ruffles were everywhere. 

Trends come and go so quickly..I'm sure I'll be really into it again when ruffles come back in, but for now..it was a good cool dress for summer at work.
