There are only two things that could possibly make this Monday a little brighter.

Mixed prints and major markdowns … and today’s outfit involves both! I wore this look while exploring a cute neighborhood in San Diego a few weeks ago. Now, my red and plaid scarf  is 50% off – I keep seeing it going out of stock and then re-appearing online, but I imagine it won’t be around much longer at $13. My black sweater, which has super cozy dolman sleeves, is only $35 and my striped mini-skirt is only $20. I’m basically a walking sale section today and I’m not mad about it. Because nothing says “I survived another Monday” like a little retail therapy.
