Black and White and Bows, Oh My!

Hi everyone! Hope you had a great weekend, or maybe you’re continuing your weekend if you get President’s Day off. I spent Saturday celebrating my birthday with my mom, shopping and going to dinner. I really liked the outfit I wore for the day, so I thought I would share!

This is an outfit I would consider a quintessentially me look. I’ve always loved black and white, girly details like bows and scallops, and then there’s my newer obsession with leopard.

 

I love adding girly details to my outfits like bows, scallops, and animal print. Plus you can never go wrong with black and white. Here is an outfit perfect for taking you to the end of winter. #fashion #style #girlystyle #midsizefashion

Sweater Jeans Purse Necklace Lip color 

 

This sweater is so fun! It’s really basic until you get to the sleeves and find the little striped bows. My jeans are my favorites at the moment. They’re a recent Old Navy purchase. I’ve actually always loved their pants because I think they have a good a stretch to them, and they’re fairly comfortable as far as jeans go. These are their darkest wash. I know lighter more distressed washes are more trendy, but I’ll always love a dark denim.

I’ve shown these leopard boots before, but I’m loving them, and they go with a lot of outfits. I can’t find them online anymore, but I’ve seen them in store as recently as last week, so check your local Kohl’s if you’re interested.

My necklace is layered with a bow as well. I think it adds a little something extra to the plain front of the sweater.

 

And let’s talk about the purse! I adore scallops and when I first saw this bag I knew I needed it. My mom actually gave it to me as a birthday present and I love how sweet it is!

 

So that’s the outfit! Hope you enjoyed and I’d love to know what style elements help an outfit to feel like you?

    I love that outfit! The black and white contrast is always a good combo and the subtle feminine details that the bows add just make it really cute!
