Off the grid

Blouse: Forever 21 (also comes in black and white!), Vest: Aqua (love this one), Pants: Free People (on sale!), Heels: Nine West, Purse: c/o olivia + joy, Sunglasses: Ray-Ban c/o SmartBuyGlasses.com, Cuff: c/o Ann Taylor, Bracelet: Fornash, Watch: Michael Kors

Remember those booties I wore last week? Well, they were $40. And anyone who orders from Forever 21 regularly knows that the free shipping minimum is $50 (duh). Obviously it's a waste of money to spend $7 on shipping when I could spend a little bit more and get something else, right? With so many amazing things hovering around the $10 mark, it's the only logical decision. (Oh, the things I convince myself of.)

I had seen this blouse before and, for only $15, it had obviously piqued my interest. And when I was looking to hit the minimum threshold for my order, adding it was a no-brainer. What I didn't plan on was how much I was going to love it! I swear it could pass for an Equipment blouse - it's that pretty in person! And the grid/window pane pattern is a trend I'm loving this Spring, so it was a win-win.

Happy Monday!

XO,
Alison
