Hi, friends.
Happy Monday y’all. I’m so glad you decided to stop by. Today’s my first day back to classes after a week off for Spring break. I thought to myself, what better way to start off my week other than a new blog post for y’all. It’s been awhile since I woke up early in the AM and sat down here writing while drinking my coffee. This past week was filled with a bunch of things I needed to do, but it was a much needed break. This past weekend, my boyfriend and I went on a double date with another couple we love. It was kind of spur of the moment, so I got ready quick and threw my outfit together. I wanted to hop on here and share with y’all what I wore because I honestly loved how the look turned out. This is something one could easily recreate with pieces they already have in their own closet. So without further ado, let’s get into it!
Jacket: American Eagle
Sweater: Hollister
Jeans: American Eagle
Shoes: Nine West
Purse: DSW
If you look throughout my Pinterest boards, you’d see different variations of this outfit pinned over and over again. I LOVE the leather jacket and sweater combo, especially when going out to dinner in those awkward months of Winter to Spring.
BUT the reality is… I’m short. And wearing this combo in a flattering way is difficult for short gals. It’s hard to find a a sweater that goes nicely under a jacket without cutting me off and making me appear larger. Thankfully, I came across this semi cropped grey sweater that hits just right. I loved it so much that I bought it in multiple colors! This sweater does just what I wanted, flatters my figure with some high waisted jeans, yet still keeps me warm! Perfect for a little chips and guacamole on a date night. Hopefully some warmer weather will be on its way, so I can start creating some transition outfits. But for now, this look works good!
Well, that’s all in today’s post. My thankfulness for your support is endless. Don’t forget to leave links to your blogs and instas, as I would love to check them out and follow you all and connect more. As always, feel free to shoot me a message with blog requests, to chat, or share a simple comment. Sending lots of love and positive thoughts to you guys now and always. We will talk soon. Xo.
Stay chic,
