30 for 30: take seven!






{top & jeans - gap | sweater - levi's | scarf - H&M | boots - lucky brand | watch - nixon via my hubs}


today i wanted to wear something that was comfortable yet dressy enough for the office. crisp white button down, skinny jeans, and boyfriend cardigan. i added the scarf for a bit of color, and to dress it up enough for the office. i attempted the whole "belted scarf cardigan" combo, but the belt i chose was too wide/heavy, so i discarded it. 

what worked: i really enjoyed wearing this outfit. it was comfortable, and i really like wearing red.
what didn't work: i need to wash my jeans. they're a little "slouchy". wait, should i be telling you that? haha.

i'm really looking forward to this weekend. i'm headed to michigan overnight to see my sister, say farewell to a friend who is moving, and then i've got a surprise engagement party for a dear friend that i'm going to on saturday. it will be a good weekend. i'm sure of it. but i must make it through friday first.

xoxo,
pilar

  9. Pilar--I really like what you've done with the scarf. I'm going to have to use the same trick before the 30/30 challenge is over. Best of luck with the remaining days.

  13. Oh, I love your (maybe your hubby's) Nixon watch. I am so jealous. I am trying to get my boyfriend to buy me a men's Nixon watch for Christmas and he says No.
    Anyways I love your outfit and the watch is a perfect touch.
