day 6 sweater
My cousin Melissa got me this sweater for Christmas. Incredibly sweet of her, and I love it but for whatever reason, I could never figure out how to wear it! I’d just put on a pair of jeans and feel like those gold sequined shoulders deserved more than old denim. It was wonderful finally wearing the sweater out today, I’ll definitely be wearing this one more often. Even if it is just with a pair of jeans 🙂
Hope you’ve all had a great Superbowl Sunday!

I leave you with photographs of our delicious brunch at Bandidas on Commercial. Pineapple french toast and “the breakfast”. A vegetarian’s dream restaurant!

    Your hair looks lovely here! And you're such a brave one to be rockin' trousers – they look good! And talk about that shirt! A show stopper.

    I love this challenge you are doing – what a great idea. And you definitely should wear that sweater more, it's amazing and you look adorable in it! I love how you styled it. And ah, that food looks soo good!!

    Totally gorgeous top and I love how you styled it– yay for black and gold! By the way, I just wanted to tell you how much your style challenge is inspiring me. I know how it feels to have a closet filling with things and finding every excuse in the book for not wearing certain pieces. You've made me want to reach in to my not so loved pieces and force myself to wear them!

    Have a lovely week Alicia!

    Such a cute sweater! I'm jealous you have such a fashionable cousin.

    And I love Bandidas. I didn't even realize it was vegetarian the first time I went. But oh man, it's so good. I love their bennys on cornmeal.

    I give you soooo much credit for blogging consistently. It takes so much effort! The sweater is so cute. The detailing is amazing! Looks great with trousers.

    Mmmmmmmm the breakfast from Bandidas looks so good! I need to start venturing out to different restuarants to try new things. Pineapple french toast? I've never tried that before. MUST go to this place! It's making me hungry now…shit.
