{ costume of the day } spots + stripes

as you may have noticed (here + here), i'm on a serious nautical stripe this spring! besides my various breton tops, this swingy cardi has quickly become the season's mvp ~ i wore it all over my trip across texas! it's the perfect weight for spring mornings and evenings, and looks great slung over the shoulders as the afternoons heat up. the fact that it's fitted through the bust and arms, but drapey over the hips means it's flattering no matter what it's paired with below. i'm sort of obsessed.

styled with my other favorite print (polka dots!), an oversized ring, super pop sunnies, a bow tie blouse, and i'd say this outfit pretty much sums up my style. everything i love is here!


my dreamy cardi came courtesy of modcloth ~ a new sponsor of the glamourai. you may have noticed their ad popping up on my sidebar. i'm really proud to welcome them to the mix! they offer a lovely assortment of super affordable dream pieces; this top is just the tip of the iceberg.

{ drugstore sunnies, topshop earrings, jean paul gaultier blouse, modcloth cardi, j.crew belt, f21 shorts, the glamourai ring (coming soon!), beacon's closet tights, topshop boots }
