10th Commandment: January 21

Jan 21, 2014

Last week, we discussed transition pieces that can you through winter into spring.  One of the best year-round pieces you can own is a great navy striped shirt.  It’s a great layering piece and it looks great alone.

Iris & Ink Striped Top ($60)

After three years of consistent wear, my Gap tee is finally showing its age.  I purchased this top from The Outnet, and it is a great shirt for the price. The fabric is a cross between a lightweight knit and a mid-weight tee.  It hits in a good place on the hip–not too long, not too short.  My one piece of advice would be that, since the top is a bit boxy, small-chested ladies may want to size down.

Prefer a traditional t-shirt?  I like this Marc Jacobs Pam Tee and this JCP top for $15.  Want the navy to be the dominant shade?  Try this LOFT boatneck tee ($29, also in petite) or this Old Navy tee ($10, also in petite and tall).  Need a v-neck?  Try this Gap Essential Tee ($24, petite and tall).

Plus-size? Ralph Lauren Boat Neck tee ($65), Land’s End Striped Tee ($29)

Saw It On Social: Rooted

A few months ago, my husband killed two of my plants. I was out of town for several weeks, and while I was away, he apparently forgot that plants need water to live. So when I returned, my snake plant and my Calamondin tree were both dead, while his braided money tree continued to thrive. […]

The Find: A Versatile Sweater Jacket

It’s allegedly spring. However, for every minute of sunshine, there seems to be an hour of rain and gloom. So while I’d love to wear lighter spring pieces, it’s time to bring on the layers.
