Preppy for Fall


That's right, your eyes don't deceive you.  I totally tied a sweater around my waist like it's 1991. And ya know what, as soon as I turned on the radio, Ace of Base's 'I Saw the Sign' was blaring so it was meant to be.
Thank you to everyone that commented and sent emails on my sister's guest post :-) 
Oh and who else is loving the stores stocking up for Fall and Old Navy getting J Crew inspired at a fraction of the cost?  This girl is!




Shirt: Old Navy (GAP has a similar option sold out online) {Similar}  /  Skirt: J Crew {now on sale}   Sweater: Loft  /  Shoes: Aldo  /  Handbag: Gucci (vintage which I stole from my mom!)    Sunglasses: Chanel  /  Jewelry: Banana Republic {on sale!}J Crew, David Yurman

  10. Amazing look, and not only for the fall. I started a new job and it's soooo cold in our office-seems like the manager wants to freeze us-all my attemps to fix the AC and change the temp. failed:)) So this look would be perfect!!!!!!!!
