minty fresh



forever 21 cardigan/blouse/skirt, river island shoes, asos bag
Nothing like a palette of minty greens to counter a hot summer day. I love the splash of graphic prints this cardigan lends and can’t believe I found it at forever 21. I think the key to shopping there is to stay away from the tees with huge fonts and dig for classic pieces you can wear season after season.
I wore this to get some groceries while at Tim’s house in the countryside. I almost wore a neon pink blazer with this skirt but realized that I’m in a small town in Texas, not the 80’s or NYC where I can pull it off (my facebook status concerning this actually sparked an interesting debate HERE). This is still considered over the top here though…anything other than jeans and a shirt is considered over the top... ;)

  5. I think you pull off those bright colors and playful patterns beautifully. And I commiserate with you, I live in a small city and people just gawk at what I wear and whenever the bf and I go do a photo shoot. It makes me so uncomfortable when people stare or yell. But if we feel fantastic in what we wear, then who cares, right? :)

  15. Dressing over the top is half the fun! I'm just obnoxious, I'm the one who dresses up like crazy for classes cause I have nothing else to dress up for! Sad! I love the cardi, so cute! And the mint color seems to combat well with heat! xxAnisa
