I can’t even tell you how long and hard I searched for a matching set like this one. It was one of those wish list items that I totally fixated on, and I wouldn’t rest until I found the perfect one. This involved three online orders and returns, plus a few in-store try on fails. Finally, with extra time to kill after my trip to Dillard’s (where I got this and these), I popped into Aeropostale. I honestly can’t remember the last time I went in there, but they were having a sale, and I figured why not. It must have been fate, because hanging there in my size were these two matching pieces. Not only did they fit well, but they were majorly on sale (and still are!). It just goes to show that persistence pays off!
I wore this little matching set on an insanely hot day last week when I knew I would be spending some time outside. My blogger bestie (and recent NYC transplant) Erica and I headed over to The Maritime Hotel for drinks and jewelry with Capwell & Co. I’ve seen The Maritime from afar many times, and I was so intrigued by the porthole windows on the side of the massive building. The cabana space is the perfect place for summer cocktails, and it was great to catch up with some of my favorite blogger friends!

You looked SO darling that night! And I NEVER would have guessed that super-chic bag was from ON… It looks totally luxe! 🙂
Thanks, Jessie!! That bag is one of the best things ON has ever made. Really good quality, and so versatile!
This is so cute! Wish I could pull off a cut like this. It looks great on you.
Thanks, Kate! It was definitely a scary trend to try, but a lot of fun too.
Love this outfit!! So fun!
