built around a sweater: an outfit post

we're having that crazy fall weather where it's 25 degrees when i get up and leave, but 60 degrees by the afternoon, so layers are pretty much as important as, oh, i don't know, air and french fries. i've been wanting to wear this skirt for a while now, but they when i looked through my armoire, i decided that i wanted to wear this sweater beca gave me even more than i wanted to wear the skirt, so it's a good thing the two could be worn together!

jean jacket: american eagle, sweater: (vintage) gift from my girl beca, chiffon skirt: vintage, tights (which are striped but you can't see in the pictures): target, shoes: payless, necklace: i made it.

i love that necklace, and i'm glad i sat down with chris to look at his coin collection. i permanently borrowed a 1930's buffalo nickel from him which i think makes the perfect pendant!

i hope you guys have a good weekend! i know i will because pop and i are going back to the trails for some more bike riding saturday evening and i can't wait!

    That sweater is perfect for you! It's funny because the estate sale I found it at, the lady must have been exactly your size, because all of her clothes were vintage and itty bitty. I was looking for a flowy peasant shirt for you, but this guy came home with me instead.
    This outfit is great, I especially love the green with the leopard print. Such a good combo.

    @anni-herz, thank you!

    @cal, i can't wait until you and i can bike ride together and have a no hands competition!

    @lea, thank you!

    @beca, oh man, i probably would have passed out if you found a hippie top! but i love, love, love the sweater, and it's the perfect fit!

    @jen, leopard wedges are the best, and i'm not quite sure how i survived without them! hahaha.

    @caitlin, thank you! green is definitely my favorite color, and that pretty much sold me on the skirt ;)

    Good outfit. I'm enjoying the jumper and denim jacket combo!

    I'm envious of the weather you're having. It's horrible here in the UK. It's cold and rainy UGH.
