Phoenix Layers

12.02.11
It is COLD in Phoenix today! This morning when I went outside I could see my breathe! December is really embracing the cold, and I am totally ok with that. I am also completely ready to embrace this month with open arms, and I’m ready to fully enjoying the holiday cheer. I’ve even been thinking about getting the She & Him Christmas album, and I don’t even like Christmas music!


On Tuesday I had a get together with a few girlfriends at my favorite coffee shop in downtown Phoenix. My good friend Courtney (who has a sweet blog called Phoenix is Haute) was wearing this awesome layered look of a cardigan and a jean vest that she picked up at my favorite store (Levi’s, of course). Well I was inspired by Courtney’s look, so I decided to recreate it my own way.


I bought this vest my first year in college on super sale. Throughout the years I have gone back and forth with loving it, and recently rediscovered it in my closet when I went through a cleaning spring to find long forgotten sweaters (it’s finally sweater season). A few years ago I put a The Format (favorite band in high school) button on it and have not taken it off since. I kind of love pieces like this that you can keep around forever. A jean vest is timeless!

Today I am SO excited because Scott and I are going down to Phoenix to check out our friend Sanford’s art on display at Bragg’s Pie Factory, and then heading down to Crafteteria! I look forward to this amazing craft show every year and I’m so excited that it’s finally here!
