Pattern Play


Sometimes all it takes are a few new pieces to revive your wardrobe & make you look at it in a whole new way.  Case in point, this little cropped jacket & these ridiculously comfortable perforated flats.  I loved that the patterns slightly echoed each other, but not in a way that was too obvious.  I couldn’t resist throwing in stripes + peplum (two of my weaknesses), plus a pop of color.  And since there are a lot of layers & prints going on here, I kept my jewelry dainty and simple.

What I’m wearing:
H&M blouse (similar), J. Crew top (similar here, here or here), LOFT jacket (here; get 40% off with code RMNLOFTFF), Levi’s jeans (on sale here), Dolce Vita flats c/o DNA Footwear (here; also in coral here), c/o Olivia + Joy bag (on sale here), c/o LoveStylize necklace (here), c/o Shop Lately rings (here & here), Tasha bangles (similar), Ray-Ban wayfarers (similar), Lips: Revlon Lipstick Smoked Peach + Revlon ColorBurst Gloss Bellini, Nails: Essie Lollipop

    Fun combination of pattern play and layering in the same color family! I have had my eye on that jacket, as well as the cobalt blue linen one…just may have to cave this weekend with the 40% off 🙂

    it's impressive that you're able to layer and still keep the silhouette so slim!
