pleated skirt (MNG by Mango @ JCP, $28)
cream tee (swapped, $free)
cropped denim jacket (Highway Jeans via PayHalf, $22)
print scarf (JCP, $15)
nude wedges (Shoedazzle "Carla", $40)
Some might assume that pastels are only for warmer weather
(spring/summer) but I cannot be held to such narrow confines. I'm a
grown-ass adult, and I will do as I please.
On another note, scarves are currently (or once again) my favorite styling piece. Almost every time I go shopping, I purchase a new one. Unlike shoes, they don't take up a lot of space, but just like shoes, they can make or break your look. Imagine this outfit without the scarf... BORING! The scarf ties everything together. Styling scarves can be a bit tricky; you have to find the style that works for you. For me, I like long, wide scarves. I tie opposite corners together to make a full circle (otherwise called "Infinity") and then I loop over my head at least twice, sometimes thrice. You may have to try different styles on to get a feel for what looks best on you. As you may remember in this post, the "Modern One Loop" looks terrible on me, but I gave it the old college try.

Will you give scarves a try?
