Fresh & Festive

Lately the weather's been pretty great; pretty much all of last week was warm and filled with lots of sun.

And then today, the weather took a turn...again.  All this back and forth with the weather makes it such a pain in the butt to get dressed in the morning; even though it's May, it's still pretty chilly most days, but then later in the day it starts to warm up for a little, before cooling down again.  I've learned that the best way to combat this crazy weather is to just layer.

Overalls: GAP || Sweater: GAP, old (similar) || 

Jacket: H&M, no longer online (H&M has the best bold jackets, like this one & this one!)|| 

Headband: aerie || Sunnies: Wish app (similar) || Earrings: H&M || 

Sneakers: Puma ||  Crossbody: Banana Republic

I stood in front of my closet for a good five minutes before I came up with this outfit idea, and I was so happy it worked out once I put it on.  I've only really worn this H&M jacket (it's no longer available online, but I have seen a few in stores, on sale!) a few times (seen here!), but since it was pretty chilly, I was excited to get to wear it again before it gets warmer!

The combo of the festival-inspired jacket and these GAP overalls was a really fun and funky outfit!  I love the idea of white overalls because they're great for warmer weather; the white gives your outfit a fresh look and the overalls are great for cooler days.

This outfit was an unexpected surprise, because I put it together in a rush and I absolutely LOVED how different it was!; and I got a ton of compliments from people saying that they loved how fun and unique this look was!

How do you layer up on cold, spring days?  :)

Let me start off by saying that: 1) I am deathly afraid of owning too much white because I am a wee bit klutzy (as a result, I've never owned any white pants, or too many nice white tops), and 2) I always thought overalls would never look good on my body type (I feel like there aren't too many styles of overalls that flatter a curvy body).

As of last week, when I took a quick peek in GAP on my lunch break, I found both those statements to be untrue, because I found the perfect pair of overalls (they are a wee bit pricey, however, GAP is forever having sales, and I scored mine when they were having 40% off!  And they do have sales like that pretty frequently, so keep an eye out!!) that are super duper flattering for any body type (and best of all?  They're not see through!!).

And so, here I am, happily on the bandwagon! hahaha

My favorite part about these overalls is how flattering they are; they are far from dowdy, and have an awesome silhouette!  I can't even tell you how many compliments I got when I wore them!  Totally made my day.

The crisp, clean lines made me feel tall and lean, so these are most definitely a big ol' A+ in my books; and I can't wait to style them more for spring and even in the summer on cooler days!!

Overalls: GAP || Top: aerie || Booties: Old Navy || Watch: c/o Fossil ||
Sunnies: aerie (similar) || Rope bracelet: Dynamite (similar feel) ||
Hat: aerie (this hat is a perfect substitute for the warm weather!) ||
Bag: Marshalls (this Sole Society beauty is has a similar feel)

And by the way, this pretty, pretty blue aerie off the shoulder top is the PERFECT top to style with these overalls!  In fact, when I bought these overalls, this top was the first top that came to my mind when I was thinking about what to pair it with!

Are you on the overall bandwagon yet?  :)
