I have the Monday blues today. Okay, well maybe most Mondays because I just do not get along with Monday all together. I got a lot of things around the house done this weekend which is always a plus but of course the weekend just was not long enough. We finally got our DIY farmhouse table done for our dining room. I am in LOVE! I will be putting together a post sometime in the future, but for now you can check it out on Instagram. (@mybrunetteadventure)

Lets talk about todays look, I have been waiting to share with you all. You are going to need to run, okay maybe just click away on your computer/phone, to pick it up at 7th & Park Boutique. Its everything you will need for your summer style; off the shoulder, stripes, flowy, and lets talk about those bell sleeves. 🙂 I paired this top with white denim from a few seasons ago I found at TJMaxx and these oversized sunnies to top it off. Perfect. You can easily wear this out for drinks with friends or maybe a date night.

Have a great week and be sure to head over to see what is going on via my Instagram.

Transitioning to Fall

Top: TJMaxx || Denim: Old Navy || Heels: Old Navy || Handbag: Michael Kors || Bracelets and Necklace: JCrew || Earrings: Francescas

Happy Friday! Hope you all had a great week. No worries, the weekend is here! My week has been somewhat crazy. The pop up shop for the boutique was last weekend and straight to my Monday to Friday gig I went. I am exhausted!!

This look is from date night a few weeks ago downtown Indianapolis with my husband. I love Fall and dates with him. It is about that time to start transitioning into my Fall wardrobe. This emerald green top is one of my favorite colors for Fall and I love it with dark brown hair. Pair it with your favorite denim, a neutral heel and you are set. A lot of these pieces are old and have been in my closet for years. Yes, years. We all don’t have access to a money tree so utilizing pieces to transition from season to season is important for your pocket book. How are you transitioning your pieces to Fall?

In need of some new Fall pieces? Check out 7th and Park for some awesome new items for your wardrobe.

Happy weekend!

Backpacks Are Back

Yes, you read that correct, backpacks are back! As you probably have seen in many stores, using a backpack instead of your handbag is becoming a new trend. I know. I know. You may not love it, but it is a hit for me. I picked up this fairly inexpensive backpack from Target recently for some traveling that is coming up soon. It will work great for traveling or strolling in the city. The upside is my “big kid” camera will be able to fit in the backpack and not weight down my shoulder like it does with a normal handbag. I did look around for a while before taking this plunge to purchase this beauty. Who says beauty in fashion can’t be inexpensive? By the way, I passed it up the first time I saw it at Target and it was on my mind for weeks. I went back to Target with my husband so of course I told him I had definitely slept on it for weeks and was ready to place it in my cart! Plus using a gift card I had was a bonus.

I must add, this sweater is so cozy and was perfect for our date night Saturday when temperatures were a bit warmer, no coat needed! And who can say no to the color? I am a bit in love with all things olive colored. But not olives! Okay, enough about that before I get off on my many tangents. 🙂

Try out a backpack you love for those days you are traveling, hanging out at a theme park, or just strolling in the city. You can kept it cute while also keeping it functional. Yes, this backpack will be on my packing list for our vacation next month to the Caribbean.

XOXO,

Jessica
