Outfit inspiration and bubble necklace mania

Chambray Jacket:  Banana Republic, summer 2011
Naomi top in modern red:  J.Crew, summer 2012
No. 2 pencil skirt in garden floral:  J.Crew, summer 2012
Bubble necklace in brilliant blue:  J.Crew, here
Colette pump in nude:  Tahari
I love looking at blogs for outfit inspiration.  When I saw this outfit, I knew I wanted to wear the garden floral pencil skirt one more time before packing it away with my spring and summer clothes.  Do you get a lot of outfit ideas from looking at blogs?  I get way too overwhelmed on Pinterest, I think I'm the only girl in the world who is not obsessed with it.  But copying looks from my favorite bloggers...that I am definitely down with.

Yes, I fell victim to bubble necklace mania again.  When certain colors went on sale, with an additional 30% off, I knew resistance was futile.  I've worn my green one so much, that I decided to go for the blue.  I LOVE it already.  I can't wait to wear it with so many different color combinations!

Without the jacket
Isn't the blue pretty?  Now of course I want the earrings to match...but I will wait for my next $25 rewards card for them.

Thanks for stopping by!  Do you love bubble necklace mania or are you sitting this trend out?

  1. YES! I honestly think the blue is my fave (or maybe the pink...). It looks so good on you!

  2. I don't get the allure of Pinterest. It honestly seems pointless to me! Your outfit is very pretty :)

    1. I have always thought the red ones were fantastic! Black would be very versatile!

  4. Gorgeous outfit! I like how there are so many colors to wear with this skirt, and the more I see it being worn by others the more it starts to grow on me. I'm going to try to wear it one more time before really chilly weather sets in. I actually have this same jacket from BR and contemplated wearing it today! Thanks for linking to me!

  5. Great score on the blue bubble with the 30 off! That is how I ended up getting the green one. I thought those necklaces NEVER went on sale so I acted fast!

    I LOVE your outfit. The bubble just makes it BETTER!

    1. Yes it was a great score! I know, I didn't think they went on sale either! Kinda kicking myself for not waiting for the green one to hit sale, but who knew?

  6. I was linked to your blog through Gigi and love it :) Happy to find someone my size reviewing J Crew items.

    I wore this skirt last week with an orange blouse too [no blazer - it's still in the hundreds here!]. Looks great! Off to explore more posts! Cheers!
