what i wore {more sweaters mama style}

 here's to sweaters.  right?

on those days when you don't get much sleep the night before.  and not by choice.  and its rainy and cold outside.  and your house is a disaster, and your to-do list long.  and you are feeling quite inadequate as a mom.


so I put on a blanket.  and my rain boots.  and faced the day.  and you know what with some deep breaths, it was actually a pretty good day.


sweater - Splendid {old}
black t-shirt - Gap {old}
leggings - Ideology, Macy's
rain boots - Hunter
earrings - Lucia K. Tag

and then there's this sweater.  my quest in my wardrobe is to find great jeans that are flattering,  and clothes {mainly tops} that are big and slouchy yet somehow flattering.  I don't know why I just love them.  anyone else with me?


recently I have stopped {for the most part} buying my shirts a size larger, and instead buying them to fit, in my size.  I think pregnancy warped my brain a little bit.


I ordered this sweater from shopruche.com last year.  and I almost returned it because when you lift your arms, so goes the sweater.  it would be perfect if the darn sleeves weren't attached to the sides.  so its more like a cape.


and I love these earrings because they always sparkle.  just enough to always give a shimmer through your hair.  they dress up or they dress down.  and these Swarovski crystals remind me of crystals from an awesome vintage chandelier.


so I am glad I bought this sweater.  {and I actually wear it a lot}.  if I hadn't it wouldn't have been posted by Nicole {who has a very inspiring blog} and then re-pinned to the Today Show Style board.  crazy to see myself next to Kate Middleton!  a surreal moment for me for sure.

sweater - shopruche.com {old}
jeans - 7 for All Mankind, Anthropologie {old}
shoes - Dolce Vita
earrings - Lucia K. Estelle
bracelet - Lucia K. Nora in Ombre.


PhotobucketI am linking up with mama style today

definitely 3 items necessary to my style...
1.  flattering jeans - I don't care what style as long as they make me {and my butt} look great.
2.  flowy yet flattering tops or white tops - feel good and classic.
3.  great accessories!  mainly jewelry and shoes.  makes every outfit better.

and dang if I can only choose 3.  runners up would be comfy leggings, stylish jackets, and fab rain boots.  I live in the Pacific Northwest folks.

also linking up pleated poppy today.

happy wednesday.

best,
kirsty

    These are really nice. summer is a great opportunity for wearing more dresses. I am also looking for Cheap Sweaters For Women that are appropriate for work and then I can just wear them to evening events as well. The FC (1st one) is my favorite!
