Giving March The Cold Shoulder Top & Oh, Hey Girl! Link-Up

There comes a time every year that I start to give my winter sweaters, the cold shoulder. We get a little taste of spring and I start buying spring clothes like it’s going out of style.

Cold Shoulder Banana Republic Top | Marc Fisher Wedges

Banana Republic recently had their friends and family sale and I picked up this cold shoulder top, along with a few other items. When I first tried on the top, I was like, meh. I considered sending it back, but the more I tried it on with other clothes in my closet, and did totally normal things, like take pictures of myself in it, in front of the mirror, the more I liked it. So, the little light blue cold shoulder top, joined my closet.

Another successful purchase, I’m really excited about, are these Marc Fisher wedges. I mentioned in my last, oh, hey girl, post that I ordered this pair and had to return them because they just didn’t look right on me. Then, I ordered this Jeffrey Campbell pair, which are even more gorgeous in person, but sadly, they were too big for these 4.5, sometimes a 5, size feet. I also tried the Steve Madden dupes at DSW, which were also too big. The struggle. So, I decided to give another style of March Fisher wedges a try. Since this style came up to the ankle, as opposed to the thick band across the toes, I hoped they would be a better fit, and they were! This style isn’t as wide as the style I previously purchased, which made for a better, more flattering fit, on me. They are also, so so comfortable and make me tall! Wearing them I can almost smooch my 6’2″ husband, no tippy toes involved.

Since it’s not quite consistent Spring temps yet (hello cold this week), I’ve been layering my new spring additions under cardigans and sometimes, very reluctantly, still pulling out those winter sweaters. Hurry up Spring, I’m ready to say, girl bye to my winter wardrobe.

What about you? Are you dying to wear your warm weather clothes? Did you shop the Banana Republic Friends & Family Sale?

    Ok, so when I saw this on you on Instagram, I was like “I gotta try this top! So cute!” So let’s just say it’s sitting in my cart, taunting me πŸ™‚ Just trying to figure out if I can get more wear out of it and wear it to work…the exposed shoulders seem well, exposed, but it’s not like I work in a super dressy environment. Hmmm…

    That top is so adorable! And the wedges are amazing! I love this entire look. And I am so ready for Spring, too. But alas, we are still experiencing single temperatures at least for the next 10 days according to my weather app. I thing Spring is a long way off for me!

    OMG I just purchased a top just like this last week. I love showing off my toned shoulders, I used to have super cut arms but my body fat percentage was scary low and I’m not sure I will ever get back there, that won’t stop me from trying. My shoulders and Traps still look pretty impressive and that makes me crazy happy. I am totally ready for the Spring Brooke, and it looks like you are too.
