Floral

Navy swing cardigan, Mossimo. Cream floral lace shirt, H&M (via swap) (see bottom photo). Khaki strapless dress, Newport News. Brown floral tights, Merona. Brown boots, Nine West. Silver mesh floral brooch, thrifted.


















I found this brooch during the same thrifting trip in which I found my charm necklace. It was a bit dingy, but I was intrigued by the concept of metal mesh folded into a flower form. A swirl in a mug full of Tarnex brightened the metal considerably. This is a well-loved piece; the stick pin is bent and appears to have been reattached at least once before.

I've admired this navy cardigan every time you've worn it. I would love to get one for myself. May I ask, what store did you buy it from? Thanks. :) P.S. - love your site!

The cardigan is from Target. I bought it in September, I think.

Love your business casual looks. I find sometimes hard to know how to dress up for office.

This is one of my favorite outfits of yours. I love the lace underneath the navy and the boots go with the length of the dress. Excellent choices!
