I am Style-ish: Lookbook: Brown & Gold

Lookbook: Brown & Gold

I have a shelf in my closet just dedicated to cardigans. I am addicted to them, I have SO many. Once I find ones I like, I tend to buy them in multiple colors. This one that I'm wearing below, I have it in black and blue as well. They are just so versatile and since I'm always cold, I always have an extra one stashed somewhere.

What I'm Wearing:
Cardigan: Banana Republic
Shirt: Banana Republic
Jeans: rag & bone
Shoes: Gucci
Belt: Nordstrom

I wanted to be work appropriate but I also just felt like wearing jeans that day so started with the button down and then added the cardigan to make it more interesting. I find button downs to be a great layering piece and I love wearing them under blazers, sweaters and cardigans. I like the additional little pop at the sleeve when you can see the cuff of the shirt. I added the belt to add shape, it's the gold version of the belt from this lookbook. The little bow on my shoes matched the belt perfectly. I can hardly resist shoes that have bows on them!

p.s. A wedding teaser went up on style.ish! Go here to check it out!

Love the look! Button-downs look great on you! I have a hard time finding ones that aren't too short for my back. Really cute pairing it with a cardigan and belting it so you have some shape! =)

I love this outfit you put together! I have been totally hoarding cardigans too. They are the perfect way to look casually put together. I've always wanted to try the belt-over-sweater combo but I'm afraid it will look weird on me.

Ah Tiffany, you happy girl! Cardigans look GREAT on you! :) Sadly, they make *me* look as horrible as it is possible in the world. Very bad. :(

I am reading your blog for quite some time but I am commenting only now! And! I linked you on my blog, OK? :) It's new and still under definite construction, but do stop by if you feel like it :)

I like the combination with the shirt very much and it looks great but i find it a bit unconfortable when im wearing it.
The belt makes the outfit look even better!
