"Vest Week #2:  Sweater-mint"--Tuesday, 3/28/17

Today's inspiration photo features grey and white stripes + mint.

From Pinterest

These moderate-thickness cardigan style vests that close in the front are nice for the seasonal transition.  I have worn them with blouses and button up collared shirts, but I think a t-shirt is probably my favorite under layer.  I admit that this isn't exactly the most "figure flattering" style, but I like it--it's a very comfortable combination, and worn with a pencil skirt, the extra volume on the top doesn't look too bad.

Mint cardigan vest (JCP), $3.35/wear
Grey/cream striped long-sleeved T (Kohls), $0.64/wear
Dark grey skirt (Walmart), $1.09/wear
Grey tights + grey leopard wedges by Cole Haan, $6.39/wear
Braided pearl necklace (Loft), $6.15/wear

Outfit total: $17.62/wear

This faux pearl necklace worked really well with this outfit, I think.

Spring is definitely in the air!  And what could be more appropriate for that than a couple of grasshoppers passing the time on lover's lane.

In other news...Robert sent this video from the Miami Open, in which an iguana took over the court.  Says Robert, "Advantage: Iguana."
