Look What I Got: A Striped Shirt





H&M Blazer (similar), JC Penney Top (similar), New York & Company Jeans (here), Nine West Boots (similar), Gucci Tote (similar), Michael Kors Watch (here), Jewelmint Bracelet (similar) and Red  Chain Bracelet (I made it).


I decided to do something a little different today and paired a striped tee with a navy blazer, usually when I wear my blazers I try and style them with a blouse or sleeveless top.  However, I really liked how my outfit came out and it was only $10 at JC Penney.  Score!  Also, yesterday I thought I would try my hand at jewelry making and I made myself several bracelets like the red chain bracelet I'm wearing in my photos and I'm really proud of myself:)  I think I'm going to make bracelets this weekend:)


I'll be linking up with the Penniless Socialite and The Tiny Heart.
