My New Favorite Outfit: Cobalt, Black, and Sailboats

Cobalt, Black, and Sailboats


 I mentioned on Instagram last week that I went to Target only intending to buy a coffee mug, and I ended up walking out with a number of things, including this top, and a coffee mug.  I had my eye on this cute blouse when it was full price, but sail boats in January didn't work for me, but then it went on sale for $7 and it's almost March.  I was sold. : )  I really like it styled with my black jeans and leopard heels but really can't wait to wear it with white skinnys.  Alas, I live in the Midwest and everyone would look at me like I was crazy if I pulled those out before May.

This weekend I created an Instagram shop to sell some of my like-new clothing and jewelry.  Come check it out here.

Also, there are two link-ups on the blog this week!  The first is on Thursday with Niki at Glossy Blonde.  Create a post sharing you five date night essentials and link-up with us! The second is with Jenn at The Brandied Pair.  Pick a blogger to swap styles with and link up with us on Friday! Both buttons are on my sidebar for you to grab. : )

  11. Love the top and what a great price. I have yet to buy something from Target, clothing wise. I'm afraid of the quality and that it's not good. But I love this top. I may have to peruse the women's section at Target more closely next time I'm there.

  13. I love that top! I also went to target on Friday intending only to get a few groceries... I remembered I still had a gift card from my birthday and brought home a clearance leopard-print blouse :) It's crazy how those clearance items just jump into our cart when we're not looking!

  14. This top is perfect for spring! You could probably bust on the white skinnies in March! I have been wearing mine and no one has said anything. Who knows if they give me funny looks, but whatever...

  16. The print of that shirt is so cute, especially the random yellow sailboats, they are like a "surprise!" in the midst of all the white sailboats!

  19. Sailboats in almost March - yep, I can get behind that! I am always leaving target with far more than I went in for. That is how they are such a successful store.

  21. You and your cuteness. Just stop it already. I love the little boats, but now I want summer to be here. AND IT MIGHT SNOW TONIGHT?! WHY? The horror. Anyway, this blazer makes me realize I want to wear my cobalt one. If only I had a sailboat shirt to pair with it...

  22. I LOVE Target- I would be in trouble if one was nearer my house. You found some great items, and I have heard that white is in so go for the skinny white jeans. I read your about me and loved how similar we are (mommy, wife, Christan, teacher) I used to full time teach now I stay at home and substitute teach. But anyway its great meeting new people and especially a stylish one like you. Rachel Xx- would love if you came by and visited my blog. But until then you have a new follower! God Bless
