Throw a Scarf on It

February 25, 2015 by Nikki 4 Comments

Throw a Scarf on It | NCsquared Life

What do you wear when you only leave your house to run a quick errand? A sweater, distressed skinnies, and to pull it all together, you throw a scarf on it. I love to keep it simple. In fact, it seems as though my wardrobe is slowly creeping toward more minimalistic than anything else. But, I love the pop of pink from this scarf and it’s really warm. I wore this outfit a few weeks ago before the snow and ice came, when the sun was still warm. Can it please be spring now?

Dreaming of Warm Sunshine

Dreaming of Warm Sunshine | NCsquared Life

I woke up to snow this morning. A few weeks ago, the sun was shining and there was a warm breeze and it almost *almost* felt like spring. Nick and I decided to venture out and finally made our way into Nordstrom Rack for the first time. I have no idea how I haven’t been in a Nordstrom Rack before, especially with one so close to me, but I definitely think I’ve found my new favorite store! I bought this shirt on super sale and it is now my favorite. It fits like a dream, which I wasn’t expecting, and has the perfect amount of looseness without looking too big. I also love the the peak of lace at the bottom; it’s such a pretty little detail. After wearing this outfit to lunch and to run some errands (because, other than class, that’s about the only thing I leave the house for these days), I was looking forward to wearing it for days on end but then the chill set in, so I’ve been left dreaming of warm sunshine.

I paired it with more delicate jewelry so as not to overpower the perfection of the shirt.

When spring comes, I plan to switch to flats. These are a nice beige-y suede, so I plan to wear them with everything!
