When I saw this sweater on Forever21 online, I was like…I have it have it. Now. Obviously it’s cute, but it also reminds me of my B*Witched cd I had in the fifth grade. That music video is so terrible. Terribly awesome. In fact, that gem is somewhere in my childhood bedroom under the bed. I admit that I just recently got rid of my cd tower and buried my cd’s in a giant cd case that has found it’s new home safely under my bed in Mississippi. You can’t get rid of those babies! I have to have proof that yes, I actually paid money for the Crazy Town, Brandy and Space Jam cd’s. And maybe stole a Coolio cd from one of my siblings.
Back to clothes. When I ordered this sweater I thought it was a normal person sweater. When it came in it looked like I had swiped it from my fifth grade closet…while in fact listening to B*Witched, because it is actually a KIDS SWEATER. Since when did Forever21 have kids clothing? I took this rare coincidence as a sign I must in fact find a way I could wear the now “cropped” sweater and keep it, so I layered it over a strapless dress and voila! Instant love.

Love love the sweater! And your hair … tell me your secrets!
Thank you! You’re so kind! I really don’t have any big hair secrets – I do LOVE my pantene, morrocan oil and Chi 2-in-1 straightener/curling iron.
And of course, hairspray and a teaser. Necessary.
LOVE that sweater! So cute!

You just MADE my day!! xo
I’m been wanting the J.Crew pave bracelet for forever, but it was a liiiittle out of my price range. Thanks for the links!
I’m so glad to hear it! Derng has the rose gold which is beautiful, and J.Girls Jewels has the yellow gold. Your preference! 🙂 XO
I immediately thought of B*witched when I saw this sweater before even reading your post! Oh C’est La Vie….feels like a lifetime ago! haha

It takes me back to my coral room with feather boas hanging from my headboard. Classy!
You know this was one of my faves too…
Enjoy.
I can’t get this video to load. Tragic…because I have a feeling it would be amazing.
LOVE this!!! Reminds me of Carrie Bradshaw for sure 🙂

OK…I have those heels in the flourescent yellow & I can’t get that dang buckle to stay clasped to save my live. I LOVE them though…didn’t see that color! Cute Cute Cute!
Just ran across your blog and was nosing around when I saw this post… I can tell we are kindred spirits for 3 indisputable reasons. 1) Diet Coke as an accessory. 2) Bewitched was my favorite CD for a long time. Infact, my brother and I were both so excited about the CD we both had to get it. Because sharing is not possible when you have rooms next door to one another. 3) Buying a shirt online in child’s size. Sometimes fashion elation blurs out common sense.
Fun website! I will be back 🙂
