First off I want to say that all the details for the Arizona Blogger Meet-up that Danielle, Kelsey, and myself are hosting on March 26th have been posted and can be found right here on Danielle’s blog.

Now, I know many of you have already seen parts of this outfit, but I still wanted to share the full ensemble. Scott and I were in downtown Tempe getting some coffee before class and we decided to go for a walk in one of our favorite small neighborhoods, the Maple/Ash neighborhood.

Carribean polarized sunglasses: Ray Bans; Cardigan: Banana Republic; Silk tunic: Lucky Brand; necklace: vintage, gift from Scott; bracelet: Kate Spade; Bag: vintage, purchased at a thrift store in Utah; Jeans: Levi’s; Sandals; Coffee Cozy: gift from Oh, Sweet Joy

On this particular afternoon it was super windy, which is very strange for Phoenix, but I decided to enjoy it to its fullest and wear a silky top that could flow in the wind. My dad actually picked out this shirt for me and gave it to me as a Christmas present two years ago. He definitely has style and taste and always seems to pick out the most funky garment in the store. I love him for that though!

Lately I’ve been rocking these Ray Bans that I picked at Nordstroms Rack last fall. I paid more than half price for them, and the next day Scott and I went to the regular Nordstroms and saw the exact same glasses for full price (retail around $189 since they are polarized). At the time I was so excited about my major score, but decided to set them aside for awhile, as I was too obsessed with my dark colored lenses. I am happy to say that they are out of hiding them and I’m rocking them all of the time. I just love the tortoise print and brown lenses!

This bag is also one of favorite (thrifted) scores. I picked it up at a local thrift store in Logan, Utah about four years ago. I adore the tooled leather, and the size and shape is right up my alley. It holds all of my things, which is very rare for any purse I seem to fall in love with.
