Invested in Vests

Guess who reached 40 followers on bloglovin yesterday and 60 followers on GFC recently?

THIS GIRL!
Thank you so so so much to all the weird people who find me somewhat interesting. I honestly don't know what attracts people to my blog, or how people even manage to stumble across my place on the internet.  But to all my followers, I think y'all are pretty rad and I love all of you to bits.

Speaking of things I love, I LOVE VESTS (and caps lock apparently). I've had this vest since I stole borrowed it from my friend M.C. in eighth grade? After seeing all of Nicole's outfits with her fur vest (my favorites are here, here, and here) I became inspired to work my crochet vest to its full potential. Tossing a vest over a super simple outfit is one of the easiest things you can do. It add a contrasting color, some interesting texture (especially if it's faux fur), and in this case, it upgrades a boring outfit, to a tumblr approved, boho/hipster inspired outfit.

I had SAT tutoring when I wore this, so I was mainly focused on comfort. A lightweight white long sleeve, crochet vest, and my favorite dark wash jeans were perfect for the kinda warm but not quite weather we had this past weekend. My Everlane tote was perfect for lugging my SAT book around, and my red flats added a fierce pop of color. I left my hair in the bun that I slept on, tossed on my watch and a basic necklace, grabbed my sunglasses and was good to go. I love dressing up and getting all fancy, but easy outfits like this are by far my favorite. They make getting dressed a breeze, and I feel comfortable and cute. Don't be surprised if you see this vest again very soon...

The vest is yet to come.

  2. congrats on your mega following, my dear! i'll always remember a quote from a big-time blogger who said to remember that all big bloggers had 1, 10, 50, 100, etc followers at some point too, and that their followers don't multiply, like for every 1, they gain 50.


    also, i'm obsessed with this outfit. i just want to wear everything you wear, all the time. you look so comfy, so chic, and so ready to ace the SATs.
