I’m all about lace for the fall so was delighted when Threadsense sent over this top. It’s cute on it’s own, but I wanted to dress it up for the fall. I never buy sweaters from Forever 21 because I always find that they get so misshapen even after one wear which I think happened to this sweater. I only wore it once and hated how it looked on me but I think I kept it around because I liked the color. I remember reading on Love Maegan that she had cut up a v-neck sweater down the middle to make it into a cardigan and decided that is exactly what this sweater needed.
Look I have wings! 🙂 |
Madewell Legging Jeans
I love love these jeans. They are most definitely my newest favorite and plan on getting another pair in a different color. I got mine at Madewell, but I just saw that Shopbop has them on sale for $66.50! I didn’t even know that Shopbop sold Madewell. Anyway, I linked to the shopbop ones if you want to check them out!

October 4, 2010 at 5:33 pmLOVE this outfit Tiffany! It's probably one of my favorites! That purple really looks great on you. Mmm? The link for the madewell jeans on Shopbop are $95? I couldn't find the sale. I've been wanting to try Madewell jans since I hear the fits are absolutely incredible!

October 4, 2010 at 5:50 pmLove the new top! It's so fun. And I'm totally interested in these Madewell jean leggings, but I noticed the inseam is 32". I'm only 5'1"! Do you usually hem your skinny jeans/denim leggings or do you just fold and/or scrunch them up??

Good call on cutting the sweater – I remember seeing that post, thanks for the reminder 😉

October 4, 2010 at 6:12 pmLove the new shirt and what a great idea about making a cardigan from an old sweater, I may have to try that!

October 4, 2010 at 7:21 pmVivian – oh sorry! only the "anvil wash" is $66.50, I didn't notice that the black was still $95. Thanks for pointing that out.
Nancy – I get all my jeans hemmed. I never mention it because I'm so used to it. I buy pants and they immediately go to my alterations lady! So yes, they are hemmed. However, I think that since these are a stretchy material, they would work fine folded underneath as well.

October 4, 2010 at 9:55 pmIsn't Madewell a JCrew brand? I just got their jeggings and I really like them, but the waist is a little lower than I like. Where does the waist of the Madewell pair sit?
Also saw the Steve Madden has a similar shoe at Nordstrom last week, but only $89. I'm hoping they look good and are comfortable – I'm way cheaper with my shoe purchases!

October 5, 2010 at 3:54 amWhat a great idea to change your sweater to a cardigan. I really like the lace top.
I hope it comes back in stock, since it's sold out. :/
