outfit: premature spring


(This is totally weird and random and maybe even slightly creepy, but do you see that little beauty mark on the side of my neck? I love it. Told you it was a bit odd. ;))


Scarf: Target
Cardigan: Target
Tank top: Target (Yes...a bit Target obsessed, are we?)
Belt: Thrifted
Jeggings: American Eagle
Sandals: Academy

We had such perfect weather this weekend I couldn't resist getting all spring-y, even if it is a bit premature, with it being January and all. Boots? Who needs those? Sandals all the way, baby. And the cardigan and scarf quickly found their way off after sitting in the warm sun - which is another thing I love about this outfit. It's super versatile...the scarf and sweater along with long pants are a welcome addition when it gets a bit chilly, but when it warms up, they can be discarded and you practically have a new outfit. 
Can we talk a minute about my tank top? That thing is my favorite at the moment. I love the fact that it's grey and I adore the subtle floral print. And the best part - I found it for a whole two dollars. Clearance racks are my favorite. Have you found any good deals lately? 
Sadly, we're back in the full swing of winter again, so any thoughts of discarding sweaters is gone. In fact, it's supposed to snow tomorrow. Sad face. But the spring weather was welcome while it lasted, even if it only fueled my desire for spring to come as quickly as possible ;)

Happy Monday!

  3. Cute. Target is awesome for spring/summer tops.

    Clearance deals *are* usually the best. I just got some makeup for a clearance display if that counts hahaha. But I love being able to buy boots, coats, etc for next season while they're on clearance b/c it saves a lot of money.

  4. My mom and I went shopping three weeks ago and while looking for winter clothes, I walked out with all spring clothes. But I do have an excuse, what's in this spring is totally my taste. Light and airy, flowly skirts, avator (sp?) sunglasses, strappy sandals. It's all just so lovely! :-)

    Love the outfit! Very pretty. :-)

  13. Beautiful! :) I'm currently obsessed with scarves...and hats...and gloves. Maybe I've thinking too much about early 1900's fashion. *sigh* So in short, love the scarf. Love the whole outfit.
