stripes for days

 Anchor Shirt/Fur Vest: Alloy, Skirt: Forever 21, Shoes: Styles For Less

Breaking rules is one of my favorite things to do. Especially rules with no consequences [except maybe a few dirty looks]. Stripes on stripes. Now I don't know who comes up with these rules but challenge accepted always! I just recently got this shirt and vest from Alloy. Clearance section. The best kind of section. I didn't hesitate to not only pair the two tops together, but add more stripes. They are my favorite, so why not overload?!

On top of the stripes on stripes I wanted to keep this outfit a bit more on the casual side so I paired the outfit with a pair of sneaker wedges. Casual it is. 

I am off to St. George this weekend (again, I know) to do my.... BRIDALS. So excited. So so so excited. It just means I am one step closer to marrying the most amazing man. Boyfriend wanted to keep my dress a surprise and not be in the bridal shoot, but I may make him be in it. I want pictures together before hand. We will see what happens. 

I hope your weekend is filled with sunshine. It is supposed to be in the 80s in St. George, so you best believe I will be taking advantage of the rays. Hiking in Zion and maybe even some laying out.

XO.

    1. I know I can't stand that either. They still feel a little puffy to me but I love them and they are comfortable and the wedge is just the right size for me!!
