Day 14/30: Short and Sweet

Sunday, June 26, 2011

This scarf is like my favorite child. Not that I would ever pick favorites if I have more than one child... or admit it ;) The print was love at first sight, and I still have not gotten sick of it yet. When in doubt, this is the first item I grab to put on.

Is there a piece you own that you feel this way about?

shirt: J.Crew (similar)
bracelet: disney couture (similar)
belt: Old Navy
shorts: American Eagle (this season's version sold here)
flats: Mossimo (similar)

  5. haha I love this scarf (I bought it in both blue and black) and bought it because of you.

  7. I love your scarf too! The print is just so classy and sophisticated - plus, it's my favorite scarf model for tutorials :) I heart OOTDs featuring shorts (esp. when not paired with a t-shirt/cami) - so many cute ideas for future summers!

  8. Wow, that is a great scarf and I love how you styled this outfit. I think it's SO cool how you wore that lime belt too. Nice post. I think I have certain jeans I feel this way about :)

  11. Very cute and clean! You look well put together and layering the sacrf works perfectly, and is unexpected with that belt. I used to have a belt like that and now I wish I still had it!!

  13. ah yes there's a very similar scarf comes in a multitude of colors that will be avail during the nordstrom anniv sale. I'm thinking about purchasing...would be a good alternative for your readers.

  14. Must...have...pair...of...white shorts! A scarf is definitely a simple way to jazz up an outfit! I think I feel the same way about this light purple cardigan I have...I wish I could wear it with everything! =P

  16. @Tara - I may have to say the green belt is my second most favorite item that I still love from day 1 :)

    @Really Petite - Haha, that's me, an enabler :) Is it this one? Or this one? Both are gorgeous!

    @gold N turquoise - CUTE bracelet. Are you going to attempt the DIY? I have issues with one-size bracelets, so rope/string ones are one of my favs too.

    @purses and puppies - I completely understand b/c there are some things I go through quite fast too and have buyer's remorse :( Ahh well, live and learn!

    @Elle - Same blue as Jean's, right? Man, if PearlBees still has her shop, I'd be tempted to buy another color too, lol.

    @kileen - Per Annie + Aubs, Nordstroms apparently has similar ones if you're interested: one, two... or there is always the ASOS one too!

    @SewPetiteGal - It's safe to say that seeing you use the same scarf is one of the reasons I run to try out your scarf tutorials :D

    @Dale - With jeans, do you ever feel that after you've taken the time to break them in, it's too late to buy a backup b/c they're all sold out?! I kick myself every time and pray the one that fits the best lasts me a long time, lol.

    @Shasie - I've still yet to find my perfect nude shoes. Thanks for bringing up Payless -- will have to check them out!

    @simplyvonne - Like I mentioned to Kileen, Nordstroms apparently has similar ones if you're interested: one, two. Do share what you were wearing today b/c now I'm curious! Something preppy? I'm so easy to peg :)

    @Mimi - I hate seller's remorse! I couldn't find a similar belt (or I would have linked it), but I'll keep my eyes out.

    @Ms.Fashionista - Thanks :)

    @AubreyOhDang! - All I could find are possibly this one or this one? And when is the Nordstrom anniv sale?!

    @LePetiteLemon - White shorts, white skirt, white tee... I want a white of everything :P It's definitely a great neutral color for pairings.

    @kimchi girl - Same style, same love for scarves. I think you and I are secretly long-lost sisters :)

  17. I have a brown leather belt from the Gap that I always seem to gravitate to with just about every outfit.
    Hmm...I could even see it with this scarf of yours! (just kidding...kind of!)
    I can see why you love this scarf, and I love how it looks like you just threw it on and walked out the door looking totally pulled together.
