I’ve got YELLOW FEVER! It’s not in that hemorrhaging, yellowing skin, fever kind of way but more like the I am LOVING yellow for Spring kind of way! {That was my cheesy attempt at medical humor! LOL!}
I wore this to work a couple of weeks ago with a more conservative pair of shoes – black wedges to be exact. This yellow cotton blazer with the fringed trim is so Chanel-esque! It was a gift from my sweet MIL. And what else would finish the outfit than a strand of pearls?! That is just a forever 21 shirt underneath, but a blazer can dress up any simple white tee.

Love the sunny yellow outfit! Your opal ring is so lovely :)
I love how diverse your outfits can be. Never boring, always interesting. One day it could be vintage and the next, something more contemporary and so forth.
Too cute! I was thinking that it was Chanel-esque as well. I like loony folks ;)

I love that blazer! I’ve been looking for something very similar in a light blue. I found a similar one at F21 but couldn’t bring myself to pay $29.99 for such a cheap blazer. I’m going to check out your link for this one to see if it’s still available ;)
Hi Callandra!! The first link is Charlotte Russe and the price is okay, but quality may be iffy. The second is pricey bc it’s Theory!

I always thought yellow paired with black will make one look like a bee. But you prove me wrong!
I’ve been cracking my brains over how to pair my pale yellow jeans (besides white top). Maybe I could try black. Hopefully I can get more inspirations from you.
LOL Melody! Me too about the bumble bee! :) I just decided to try it anyways, and I liked the way it turned out!
You look great in yellow. Eek- those jeans are so great.
The blog redesign looks wonderful- congrats!
