Pinstripes & Polkas

blouse & skirt (J.Crew old, LOVE this dotted skirt), belt (J.Crew), shoes (Boutique 9), bag (Furla), bracelets (J.Crew), ring (Anna Beck), watch (Michael Kors), shades (Gucci), earrings & pearls (Target)

Something light & crisp for a workday or even a little luncheon.  The subtlety of both the prints & color palette make for a lovely pairing.  Sidenote, I don't wear earrings all that often; however, I stumbled upon THESE WHITE STUDS and snaked them quickly---they are way inexpensive &  add a nice touch to a spring ensemble (as do the PINK & TURQUOISE pairs).  

Alright, gang, I have to scoot--have a fieldtrip at an orchard this morn with my sweet Campbell then have to switch outta mom mode into work mode with a business lunch in Louisville!  Busy day indeed--you all make it a good one & enjoy the weekend!  Friendly reminder, The Shelf giveaway ends early next week so make sure to get your entry on!

Work It

 

 

 

 



 



blazer (Gap, love THIS  & THIS), blouse (Loft), pants (J.Crew, Leather Version), shoes (Zara, love THESE), bag (Michael Kors), necklaces (vintage, InPink), watch (Michael Kors), ring (Anna Beck), bracelets (J.Crew), shades (Gucci)

I wore this look to work the other day and I have to say, it is my ideal 9 to 5 ensemble.  I find it comfy yet polished while still maintaining some personality & professionalism.  The Loft Dalmatian Blouse is a current fave with its light, airy feel & fun dotted print.  Toss on some Baubles and roll the sleeves of your vibrant blazer (with a side of popped collar if you so choose) and you are all set to tackle your day!  PS:  if you love THIS NECKLACE as much as I do, INPINK is offering s + s readers 30% off all jewelry with code SEERSUCKER30 (code valid thru 6/10/13).  Make it a good weekend, gang!
