I will just warn you that several of my upcoming posts will all be about my trip to Paso Robles. I did something similar on my blog last year, chronicling each day we spent on the vacation and what I wore and what we saw. Blogging is a great way to catalog not only my wardrobe, but the beautiful places I've been fortunate enough to visit with my husband over the last few years. Before this trip, I looked back over at my blog and reminisced over last year's trip. Blogging truly is a great way to take a stroll down memory lane.
Sweater: Madewell
Skirt: J. Crew Factory here
Shirt: J. Crew "Tilda"
Boots: J. Crew (vintage store find)
Bag: J. Crew similar here
Sunglasses: Prada here
Despite my earlier claim about the weather being cooler in Paso Robles, it did get rather warm on the full day we spent roaming around and wine tasting. Luckily, I wore a sleeveless shirt underneath my sweater, thus allowing me to don a sweater knotted over my shoulder to create a somewhat preppy look.

Such a pretty look! I like a lot the combination!
ReplyDeleteThank you Minau! It's sort of an unexpected combo!
DeletePaso Robles sounds great. I agree blogging is great to showcase our styles as well as the beautiful places we live at or get to visit. Great mixtures of Fall colors here and yes you do match the trees and beauty around you. =)
ReplyDeleteThank you Ada! Yes, Paso Robles is pretty great! It's a wonderful place to enjoy beautiful scenery and some great wine...what's not to love?
DeleteOoh that sounds like a fun trip--I love traveling vicariously through other bloggers :) This is such a fun print mix too, I love the colors and patterns together!

Thank you! It's always fun to find unexpected ways to pair patterns together. Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteYou look amazing and I freaking love that you added navy tights. Now I'm totally going to have to go buy some...and also I really need to bedazzle one of my collared shirts because I'm always so obsessed with the top you have peeking out of a sweater, so snazzy! Love this look! I hope you have a wonderful week my gorgeous friend! XO -Kim
ReplyDeleteDefinitely spring for navy tights! They end up going with everything, plus they keep you nice and toasty warm in the fall. Also, as you can see this shirt gets a lot of use, so I highly recommend getting a bedazzled shirt too. Don't you just love how enabling looking at blogs is? I hope you also have a fantastic week Kim!
DeleteWow, such a pretty look! I would never have combined these two patterns, but you've shown how it totally works. You've inspired me to go back to my closet and see what unique combinations I can make too!
ReplyDeleteThank you! It was sort of a short in the dark combining these patterns together, but I think it worked out for the best. I'm sure you'll find something equally lovely in your closet to recreate a similar look!

ReplyDeleteAs someone who's just today done a post featuring a polka dot jumper, I'm sharing the love of the dots! Love colours from the jumper to the tights. Looking forward to more post about your trip.
