Off the Shoulder....in
plaid AND with Shimmer!!! Yes please and when it’s under $10, I’m game. With a
little sunshine and temps above 40, It prompted me to pull out the peep toe
booties. Ok, ok now you must know, this is a final sale item from The Loft but
I can promise you next Wednesday will be something NOT from there. Lol.
Getting the twofer
today for the Fashion Link-Up and What's Up Wednesday with Shay and the gang.
Yes, what makes this top so extra cute is the subtle shimmer threads and of course what pulled me in was the sleeves. Just give me all the bell sleeves. I tend to like the ones the most that are 3/4 length so they don’t get caught on stuff. I just love the plaids contrast on the sleeves.

What makes this top cute is YOU, not the summer thread! Though it is cute and styled just right with khaki ... and that cute hair!! The same-coloured shoes create a super long line too.
ReplyDeleteAnd Ed Sheeran?! I read it first here on Lady Nine's!! Hugs, x.
I can see why you love this top, and how fab does it look with your sand jeans. x Jacqui

What a cute top! You can't beat the off the shoulder style and the plaid, of course! It will be so cute with white jeans in the spring and summer, too. And what a deal! I hadn't heard about Ed Sheeran singing at the Royal Wedding! As if I wasn't excited enough haha!

What a cute top! You look so pretty in navy!! My mom just told me about the book Need to Know this weekend and it sounds so good. She is loving it. I just requested it from the library! Can't wait to hear what you think!
ReplyDeleteThat plaid top is SO fun! I have those peep toe Toms in a few colors and love how comfy they are :) looking gorg as usual- xo! Hope you have a fab week!
ReplyDeleteThat top is so cute. This Is Us was great last night! I really like 9-1-1 too!
ReplyDeleteOMG I'm binging Riverdale, too! I can't stop! I watched the first episode on our flight home from South Africa, and I finally got around to really getting started, and I'm so hooked.
ReplyDeleteAlso, Andrea, you just rock the off-the-shoulder look every single time! Stunning!
I would have never thought to put that shirt with those pants but its perfect!!!!
ReplyDeleteI am so excited everyones jumping on the Riverdale train. I've watched since day 1 & LOVE IT. I'm so in love with Jughead Jones :) haha
That Loft top is positively darling on you, Andrea! Hope you like the book as much as I did! Have a wonderful week!!

What a cute top! Ok, is that your new closet?? OMG, can I move into it? I will bring my purse collection with me?? Pretty please?? haha
ReplyDeleteLoving the blazer and scarf outfit! I need to pull out my blazers! They are great for casual Fridays. Your new top is adorable! It's making me think spring!
ReplyDeleteThe print of that shirt is so fun! And I love your blazer! I am wearing a bomber today, so perfect for days that start out cool and warm up! Is Riverdale back?? I still need to catch up on This is Us. I STILL haven't seen the super bowl one yet. I hope you enjoy 9-1-1!! Off to listen to that song. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Tim and Faith! Happy Wednesday!
ReplyDeleteWell don't you look darling! I love the top and how you paired it with those tan pants. And your Sunday dinner has me drooling haha! Looks so good! :)
ReplyDeleteNo wonder you had to build a house with a big ol' closet. You've got to have someplace to hold all these darling clothes. I don't even remember seeing that top on Loft, but it sure is cute. I love the mix of the plaids. I also love that casual look with your Converse and blazer. Is there anything you can't wear? I don't think so. You look darling in every single thing. That Tim and Faith song is great!❤️ Happy Wednesday cutie! XO
ReplyDeleteYOu are watching Riverdale too?? I love that. I have binged it too. Sooo good. I love how that top is less than $10. What a great steal!
ReplyDeleteI just listened to that whole song. SO good!! I am not even a big country music fan but that is such a sweet song. It made me tear up a little bit. I am such a baby!! Anyways!! Love your outfits with that blazer. I sure hope that spring returns (I mean it was here yesterday!!) soon too. Hope that you are having a lovely Wednesday! xo
ReplyDeleteLove the navy and gold color combo!
ReplyDeleteOooh, girl I love that whole outfit! What a steal on the shirt and I can't say no to any plaid! The peep toe booties have to come out when it starts to warm up a bit! I love Riverdale too! Enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness getting over a cough is no fun, and I'm right there with you! I hope that you'll get to visit your sons sometime soon, and hopefully you'll be able to go on a little vacation soon too!
ReplyDeleteMy daughter had a cough for almost a couple of weeks, so glad it is finally gone! I love your side pony, I have been wearing a side pony lately and it is so fun! I LOVE the Cayman Islands, but haven't been there since we spent a day there during a cruise (before kids!). A pool install will be SOOO nice!! I'm jelly! I love this OTS top and I am sure the metallic threading in it is just gorgeous. I need to get some neutral peep toe booties, I only have some in black.

Hi Andrea. I love everything about your outfit! SO cute. Your Link Up idea is great; to visit and comment on the previous post is such a great way to see and get to know other bloggers. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteOops! From Darlene.
ReplyDeleteLove the whole outfit!And yay for pool planning! Go with the more expensive LED lights in the pool, so you can change colors at will, it's fun and adds a festive touch, worth it! Also get it on a smart house thing, because then you can turn on all the lights in the backyard with the flip of a switch! Also make sure to put little lights on any steps up to the pool, they are helpful in the dark...and look pretty at night. Sorry that turned long, haha. Yay for maybe seeing college kids!
ReplyDeleteYou are always SO chic and I am so excited for you! Pool planning sounds so fun! Can't wait to see the results! I know it will be amazing! You are so good at this!

Happy to hear the weather is warming up so you can bring out all the cute outfits...even though the winter wonderland was a beautiful sight! I hope this weekend brings you lots of R&R to recover from your nagging coughs. Love the featured outfit and adding shimmer to anything brightens my day! May your weekend sparkles and shimmers! Lots of love beautiful Andrea! xo Emily @ Martinis & Bikinis
ReplyDeleteYou are my off the shoulder idol. Absolute perfection! And I love that Tim and Faith song too!
ReplyDeleteAnother cute outfit! Love the OTS plaid top. Looks very good on you and I really like your one side pony tail. Btw, I made your strawberry cheesecake muffins and it was delicious. My husband said to open a bakery so that's a compliment meant for you! I'll pin your recipe today and add along a photo of how it turned out on my end. I hope you are having a beautiful day!

Well if it isn't the QUEEN of Loft!! All hail you!! You always find the best pieces there. I mean..bell sleeves AND shimmer?! There could not be a better combo :) Enjoy that weather...we are in for a storm this weekend, and it hasn't been above 50 here in 2 weeks! Ugh...bring on the Spring!! Have a great weekend, honey! XO

Love that off the shoulder look on you! Perfect transition to spring outfit! Chicken Eugene always intrigues me when you post it, I need to make it. I am not a country music fan usually but that song is lovely! have a fantastic rest of your week sweet lady.
ReplyDeleteThis top is so cute!! I love the mixed patterns and how they all come together. I am so happy about longer light and actually can't wait to for the clocks to go ahead. We were thinking about Cayman Island this year but might be putting it on the back burner because we have something else up our sleeve ;) Sierra~Beautifully Candid
ReplyDeleteI hope you get over that dreadful cough soon! I so hope you get to see those college boys this month too. I love the plaid and the bell sleeves, just too cute on you!

Andrea, you look so pretty! Love how you styled the top and how fun are those earrings. When, oh when will you be joining Instagram?? I know, you're already managing, linking and commenting on so much but I selfishly want to put more on your plate so I can chat with you more. haha. No pressure though. :J) Anyway, back to this outfit. Yes. Yes I need those shoes. And yes. I NEED those pants! I'm bored of alternating jeans, camo pants and leggings. Need some more khaki. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun, positive post, Andrea! I love the longer light too; typing this at 6pm and the sun is still out. xox
