Spring Time Sweater

It’s that time of year again. No, not springtime, it’s that time of year where the wind blows so hard you wonder why you even did your hair that day. I had to hold onto my hair for the majority of this shoot, so forgive me. It’s not that I just *love* touching my super soft hair, it’s that the wind was blowing at 25 mph during these photos and when I wasn’t holding it I had an impending nest of hair knots coming my way. Gotta be honest, wind like this? It’s a good hair day ruiner. I always seem to forget this small detail of spring. Mother Nature bargains with us and says “you get sunshine now! Oh but you also get torrential winds. K thanks, bye!” A real frenemy, she is.

So all that to say, I am not in love with my hair, I was just avoiding possible injury.

 Let’s talk spring sweaters, yeah?? I legitimately thought this was a sweater from Rebecca Taylor with the sweet little ruffle neckline but surprise — it’s J.Crew! I don’t always say this but it’s even better in person and is a total layering team player. (Think a chambray shirt under this with white jeans! Spring outfit ideas, for the win! ) Also, I say this is a sweater but it’s kind of a mix between a sweatshirt and sweater. It’s fabulous and you can find it here at Nordstrom or J.Crew, wherever your preference may be.

I’m so into simple ensembles these days. I think the keys to simple and chic are a good pair of denim and keeping things monotone. I feel like dark denim gives just a little bit more of a fancy feel to any casual outfit. And you know how I feel about beige or nude accessories. I LOVE THEM. It’s less if you’ve seen one you’ve seen them all and more if I have one and I need them all. Nude tote? Check. Nude shoes? Check. Check. Check. Check.

Fact: Accessories and lipsticks are the only nudes I like.

(PS: These mules are my favorite and are on sale!! Find them here!)
