Gives me butterflies


I've had this Old Navy butterfly print top for a few years now, and I was itching to wear it before summer ended. It's one of my favorites.

Oldies but goodies

blouse- Poshmark  option  option   option
pants- TJMaxx  option  option
necklace- Poshmark  option  option
earrings- JCPenney  option
shoes- Payless  option  option
 
I've worn all of these pieces before (coral blazer here), but I'm not sure I've shared them together. I love this butterfly print top I found on Poshmark and it has paired nicely with so many other pieces in my wardrobe, both for casual and work wear. You just can't beat a great print.
 
Are you shopping the Nordstrom sale? I'm not a cardholder, so I'll be waiting until public access, but you can shop now if you have a card, credit or debit linked to your bank account.
 
Currently I'm eating.... lots of summer fruit. First it was blueberries, and now I've moved on to watermelon and cherries. We also eat lots of bananas year round. I haven't had any this week and I think I'm going into DTs, lol. What are you currently eating?

Last weekend I wore this to visit our families for Mother's Day. You've seen me wear this top many times in my business wear, but it makes a cute casual top too when paired with other casual items. I had to play on the "butterfly theme" and add a butterfly bangle.

Improvising

earrings- Tuesday Morning option  option

Last week's weather (wind and rain) didn't lend itself to taking outfit photos. You will have to make do with an Instagram photo and a collage of the outfit. It's a very simple formula I pulled from Classy Yet Trendy's book - The Workwear Capsule. I haven't created a spring work capsule per say, I'm just using the outfits for formulas and tweaking it to work for me. Any coordinating color scheme would work for this- white button up+ trousers+ cardigan+ scarf+ pumps. Go with a neutral cardigan and any scarf in your closet will work. I just happened to want to brighten up my look with a butterfly scarf and snakeskin pumps for a little more interest and texture.

Where does time gooooo? I struggle to keep up with anything in my life now days. But  I do have good things going on, so I shouldn't complain. This top and bright jacket are a good thing. They are cheery and made the perfect pieces to keep me up on a tired Friday last week.

What picks you up?

Raining on my parade

I try not to complain, especially not here, but life is raining on my parade right now. I'm not going into great detail but I'm beating myself up over something I feel like I could have done better last week. I know that the experience will ultimately be good and this is how we learn, but I'm having a frustrating and painful learning curve right now.
 
And it rained (literally) the first couple of days this week, but I didn't let it stop the outfit pics. I picked up my favorite butterfly umbrella that was a perfect backdrop to this butterfly top and went to work in the drizzle.  I threw this blazer in the mix of the capsule because I really needed to challenge myself to wear it in ways differently than I had been. I've always gone to brown with it, but I'm loving it with this top.
 
HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!

No, I don't have butterflies in my stomach over anything. I'm just posting a butterfly print blouse two days in a row. They were not worn back to back, but I wanted to post something more interesting than what's next in the chronological lineup. It's a wonder that I don't have a closet full of butterfly prints- I love butterflies. I photograph them all the time and collect items with butterflies on them. They are on the shower curtain, spoon rests, candle holder, etc in my house. You get the picture.

I also wanted you guys to know that I got my hair color redone and the cut trimmed a bit. I'm in a growing out phase and my hair had gotten way out of shape. The last few photos have been awful. Now it's got a little more definition.
