Obsessed with Navy Blue

from Saturday

Ended up buying a few things for spring on sale this past Saturday. Things I wanted & kept in the back of my mind. Happened to find them all on the same day. I realize I’ve been buying a lot of navy blue lately… not on purpose, it just keeps happening.

denim shorts

Denim shorts from Madewell. Really wanted to get some new denim shorts. The only other pair I had were my pair from WC and I wanted something less distressed.

sweater, dress, tee

Navy dot tee & navy stripe sweater from Gap. I spotted this sweater weeks ago and really loved the texture and color. I already have a navy/white sweater from UNIQLO but when I saw this was on sale now I went ahead and got it.

The dot tee reminded me of the sweaters Madewell had this winter. I don’t really have many basic short t-shirt tops for summer (really on my Rinka tee and my old silver tee come to mind.)

Dress is from Zara. I was on the hunt for a new “perfect” dress. Something non-sheer, easy to throw on, long enough for the office, simple enough to pair with a sweater or cardigan, short sleeved for summer wear. I love that it’s a dark color but still feels “summer” because of the palm trees. The trees remind me of those stickers you could get from the tanning salon. The hem is a subtle high-low type which I liked for a little extra coverage in the back.
