Not Your Grandma's Sweater

Mixed media items are my absolute favorite trend this fall. Playing with different textures can take a boring outfit to fabulous!

I can see this outfit being great for an early December get-together. You know that awkward time when it's not quite the season for serious sparkle but you want to look casually polished?

When you're wearing clothing sans color, it's fun to add some brightness in the form of accessories or products. This clutch is so cute - I love the studs!

It made me smile when I titled this post, because I actually do wear my Grandma's sweater all the time. It doesn't have leather sleeves, but it'll always be cool in my books <3

Rock the Shamrock

I was three days short of being born on St Patrick's Day. For those of you who are bad with math, that means I became a year wiser yesterday. I always thought mom should have made me stay in a few more days, because how great would it to be to have your birthday fall on such a massive celebration?

I'm linking up with longdistanceloving for a post on St. Paddy's fashion. No top hats or large buckled belts in the collage below, but I did throw in a few touches of green and some adorable clover earrings.

I've got something blogtastic planned for Sunday... no green beer for me! I'll be hard at work in a secret location, and I hope to share some of the outcomes of this adventure with you soon!
