Monochrome

Happy Presidents day readers! I love three day weekends. I decided to participate in two birds' Inspiration Monday this week. Here is the inspiration photo:


I really liked the monochromatic blue look SJP is rocking, so I decided to recreate it with a blue dress and blue cardigan.


In looking back at my outfit posts over the past week or so, I realize I've been wearing a lot of blue lately. I think part of the reason for that is that some of the newer pieces in my wardrobe are blue, and when I get something new I wear it a lot. 

Outfit:
Dress: Marshall's or TJMaxx?
Cardigan: Old Navy
Bag: Jason Wu for Target
Tights: Target
Belt: H&M
Shoes: DSW
Bracelet: Thrifted

I'm off to meet my sweetie for lunch and a walk in the Boston Common. What are you doing with your three day weekend?

    Also - love your Jason Wu bag, my Target still had some this weekend and I had to really restrict myself from picking one up!

    1. Thanks! I didn't even try to brave the stores. I stayed up until 2am the night before the launch to order the bag online:)
