Two things about this outfit. 1. This sweater has gotten me through many a cold day of recent and 2. more importantly, this bag is Forever 21!! Doesn’t it look so much more expensive? It’s reminiscent of an Opening Ceremony bag (at least to me) and I’ve been carrying it for the past several weekends and have had so many people ask “WHERE is that bag from” to which I am always thrilled to reply “F21”. They have a lot of great bags right now for such affordable prices (see some other favorites in the scroll bar below).

If you’ve been reading this blog for a while or follow me on Instagram you know that brunch is one of my favorite things in life. It’s such a simple pleasure – great food shared with good company – what’s better than that on a regular basis? I wore this to brunch with one of my girlfriends the other weekend and then repeated it this past weekend. How was your weekend? Did you watch the Super Bowl? I half tuned in and more importantly did a Super Bowl themed SoulCycle ride that rocked my world. Trying to get back into this whole fitness thing…wish me luck!
