Inspired by Jodie Filogomo
Once again another blogger, Jodie from Jodie Touch of Style (and her moms) has sparked my interest with her theme for the week. During the last week of March, they styled black and white with bright colors, pastels and. In my case, I went with a simple combo of black and white with black and white.
The shirt is from Shein which right now is only is plus sizes. This ruffle short sleeve tee is now $9 which is close to the price I paid for it. This is the only time that I have bought from Shein but I will say that the shirt has really held up to the wash and wear and is very versatile.
I paired the shirt with a pair of cropped Loft white pants (thrifted) and my trusty black sandals. I really like these sandals because I find them a little edgy with the details on top and wear them with everything. For a pair of Target sandals, they are very comfortable. Sadly they have some wear at the tip and I really need to replace them but I probably wear them one more summer!
Since it was cold, I wore my Zella jacket with my outfit that day. This is one of those expensive purchases that I justify with the cost per wear method. I bought the jacket full price right at $99 and I really had a hard time swallowing that pill! But I have had the jacket for at least a year and a half now and wear it quite often. I especially love the collar.
The collar can be worn up if it is cold and windy or it can be worn flat. I also like the off centered zipper.
I only wish they had had the jacket in size medium and not only in small since I often feel like it is a little short. But the pros outweigh the cons in this case and I do not regret my purchase. And as you can see, I am wearing my trusty Nickel and Suede silver cork earrings (btw I wear all of my N & S earrings in medium). I feel like they had some texture and interest to the outfit.
A bientôt!

I love the extra detail with the sleeves on this striped top. All the ruffles going on this spring is fabulous – from tops to skirts I’m seeing it everywhere. Love it!

You can seriously never go wrong with classic black and white! I wear black and white very often and do love to throw a splash of color in it with it sometimes, too. The ruffle sleeves on your shirt are so cute and I am all about white pants for Spring (or really any time of year). Jodie, Nancy, and Charlotte always have such inspiring outfit combinations, don’t they?!
