The Oxford Undershirt

If you've been following this blog for even a little bit, you know that I love oxford tops. They are my favorite type of top to wear on most days. I love them because they are comfortable, versatile, and because they can be dressed-up and down very easily. I've seen a lot of people layering oxfords under short-sleeve tops because... why not!? 

This is the first time I've done that and I love the overall look... it instantly transforms this spring/summer blouse into a winter ready outfit. 

 I love these earrings and this infinity ring from Born Pretty... you have to check out their jewelry! It is insanely inexpensive and they have some seriously gorgeous pieces. Be sure to head on over to their website and use the code: JW10 to receive 10% your purchase!

Nautical in Autumn

I feel like this week was so long. Is that just me!? Thank goodness it's Friday now! Do you guys have any big plans this weekend? Brogan and I don't have much planned. We are going to see Brogan's brother and his wife and our adorable little niece, so that will be fun! I will also be locking myself in my office so that I can make bracelets galore this weekend. I am participating in a craft show next weekend so I am trying to get ready for that. If you haven't already checked out my online shop, please do! 

I have an outfit post for you today, but first: a few orders of business. 

1. Thank-you to everyone who entered the $300 Target Giftcard Giveaway! The winner is Katie Hanson. Please e-mail Lily at lilyac13@gmail.com to claim your prize. 

2. Remember when I posted about the Bloggers Give Back Event earlier this week? Well today I am hosting an auction with JJ Walters Designs on their instagram page.

Follow us @jjwaltersdesigns to join in on this fun auction and to see all the rules!

This outfit: I am loving this J.Crew oxford that I bought from a fellow fashion blogger on instagram. I am seriously obsessed with oxfords this season and I can't stop wearing them! I think it's because they are comfy and casual but they also have a classy and dressed-up touch to them. It's a win-win. This specific top has a blue-striped pattern, which reminds me of all the nautical trends that were circulating this past summer. So I of course had to wear my Sperry's with it! I also paired this scarf with it because I just can't get enough of pattern mixing these days. 

Also: This is my new favorite shade of lipstick. It's the NYX Matte Lipstick- which I LOVE, in Pure Red .
