baubles + bangles.

this sweater and this skirt were two lukewarm purchases, bought solely for the purpose of adding florals and color to my wardrobe. guess this outfit kills two birds with one stone.

i have yet to set foot in an h&m store, but my sister bought me this ring while on vacation. great thing about gifts is that you sometimes receive things you wouldn't normally buy...and it's fun to work these into your own style.

and my daughter bought me this gold "lone star" bracelet. she wanted to pay with her own money. so sweet. i bought it in silver a while back and it has since become a default. you'll see it in almost evvvry post, like here and here.

(sweater & skirt, f21)
GIVEAWAY COMING SOON!

That yellow looks gorgeous on you. I think it's one color that is hard to find the right shade for your skin tone. Outfit = perfect!
