What I Wore: Ivy League

7:15 AM

I really enjoy shopping at two stores, one of them is J Crew Factory, and the other is Express. The quality of their clothes, and their prices, are just right for my budget, once you get on their sales deals of course lol. Below top is a super light cotton sweater that I recently purchased it from J Crew Factory. My main reason for buying this top is to wear it as a stand alone, and if I choose, with a collard shirt for the preppy look year round. Today I decided to wear it as a stand-alone and that was due for the colors I was going for.

When I look at these pictures, the name I could come up with was Ivy League. The main reason is  all due to the warmth of the green, and the tan undertone, and the touch of vintage gold sprinkle here and there. In the end, I think these color are just so flattering to my skin tone, and I loved how simple yet elegant this outfit turn out...just like an Ivy League school. As always, thanks for the comments and support.
