Tickled Pink

 

I typically never buy anything full-price (with the exception of items from Target or Forever 21).  But, when I won this styling challenge (thanks again RetailMeNot!) and was given a $500 gift card, I decided it was okay to break this rule a little since I wasn’t technically spending my own money.  This tweed-front top was pretty high on my wish list – I love the modern twist on a classic piece + the fact that it will be so easy to dress up or down.  Speaking of versatile pieces, this peplum jacket is another new favorite – perfect for wearing now, but also lightweight enough to carry me into spring (and for such a great price!).
 
 

 
 
 What I’m wearing:
J. Crew top (here), c/o Lily + Violet jacket (here), JCP jeans (here), Guess pumps (similar), Target earrings (similar), Fossil watch (here), ALDO clutch (on sale here), gifted Etsy ring (here), Ray-Ban wayfarers (similar), Lips: L’Oreal Colour Riche Cotton Pink, Nails: Revlon Fuschia Fever, Essie Cascade Cool, Revlon Cafe Pink

I’m one of the finalists for the Olivia + Joy Blogger Styling Challenge and would love to have your vote – all you have to do is “like” my photo here.  Thanks so much!!

  68. PennyPincherFashion says

    February 13, 2013 at 10:40 am

    LT, I use Paula Dorf Lip Perfection around the edges of my lips before I apply any lipstick – it helps it stay on & keeps the lipcolor from bleeding/feathering. Hope that helps! 🙂
