The sun was out in full force on this day which made it warm enough to leave the winter coat at home, but the sun made it difficult to get decent pictures. Luckily I found a few that were ok. Everything but the boots are old, and sadly these boots are no longer on the Target site so I can't link to them directly..
This knit sweater I purchased from LOFT about a year ago. I've seen it shown by another fashion blogger and it was one of those items I fell in love with. I definitely didn't need another gray sweater, but I love the details on the sleeves on this one and the relaxed fit. You can see a closeup of the sleeves below...I don't know, there is something about some of the 80's and 90's styles that I love and this sweater is definitely reminding me of that time frame.
There's nothing quite like this sweater currently available at LOFT, but LOFT always has some wonderful sweaters in store - some great spring styles were just added, always worth checking out! And if you like shopping sales and clearance, you can now (as I type this) take an EXTRA 40% off most sales items.
I paired the sweater with one of my AG jeans I purchased from eBay (I bought them pre-owned but they have become my favorite pair, just wish the rise was higher) and my quilted vest from Old Navy. This vest is still available in very limited sizes from Old Navy, otherwise this one from Amazon looks like a good option. (More Amazon Options HERE)
Above is a closeup of the boots. Maybe a little too much fur but they do look cute! This was my first pair of boots/shoes ever purchased from a Target brand, and I was positively surprised that they were so comfortable. I've worn them for several hours on this day and my feet didn't hurt at all. While this specific pair of boots is no longer online, Target currently has many of their winter boots reduced. You can take a look HERE. Otherwise this pair is very similar, but expensive, which makes sense as those are made of real leather and shearling.
To add some interest to the outfit I added a simple long necklace (this is part of a 4 layer necklace by Lucky Brand). This specific necklace is no longer available but there are some great options on Amazon.
Sweater LOFT (options) // Vest Old Navy (Amazon options) // AG Jeans from eBay (New Options HERE and HERE, some options at closeout prices HERE, and if you don't mind pre-owned you can find great deals on eBay) // Boots from Target by Universal Thread (sold out) Alternative Option ,More Options HERE // Saddle Bag Option // Necklace Options
Thanks so much for visiting! Hope you're having a great weekend! I'm going to see Clark Beckham today. (Does anyone remember him from American Idol - the runner up of season 14?) He's making an unscheduled surprise stop on his Light Year tour in a small town close to where I live. (How lucky am I???) I think it's safe to say that he's been my favorite from all the seasons considering I purchased every song he's ever released :)

I love every single piece of this outfit! I am staying away from Target: too many cute things and boots at that price would be too tempting!

I so know what you mean by avoiding buying things "just cause their cheap" or on sale. That was a weakness of mine for many years. Now I always ask myself before I buy "I know it's a great deal, but do I really need it?" And the funny thing is, I've been wanting a pair of boots like this myself, but I asked myself "Do I really need it?" and I really didn't because I already own several pairs of boots. It's a hard thing to do because new things are fun. I love the boots though, and that sweater is so cute!
I love those boots! They look so comfy and cosy, and just perfect for this time of year xo

Thanks Jennifer! It's one of my favorites! Seems to go with everything!
Thanks Mireille. I too don't shop there often, in fact I usually try to stay out of stores in general but sometimes my daughter "makes" me go and I always seem to find more stuff than she does :-)
I think it's something we learn as we age, so there must be something true about the saying 'with age comes wisdom' LOL.
Thanks so much, they are so comfy!
Those boots are pretty darn cute. It's good that your daughter convinced you to get them! :)
This is such a classy and classic look! I love the color of your bag!

Ellie, such a cute casual look! And those boots are so adorable. For under $12! I may have to visit Target this weekend to see if they have them available in my size. I need some cute hiking boots. Thanks for linking up with me and Monica!

Hi Elibelle!
Those boots are adorable! We have been getting things at Target via pickup, so we arent tempted by going in. BUT, I still go on the website and will order! The jeans look great and I love the addition of the long necklace, pretty!
thanks for linking!
