sometimes, it’s saturday.

Blazer: Target(Altered by me.), Striped Tank: Forever21, Trouser Jeans, Brooch: The Loft. Necklace: NY&Co.  Shoes, Belt: Ross.

Sometimes it’s Saturday, and it rains, and we go to IHOP and have a syrup smothered breakfast.  And I spend over 300 dollars at Costco, and not on anything cool, just on food.  Because feeding 5 people is expensive.  And when the rain clears up we work in the yard pulling weeds and mowing the lawn, and there’s a bit of napping, and movie watching, and paper airplane making and hot chocolate drinking and general snuggling fit in there too.  And life is wonderful.  Yes it is.

And P.S. I altered this blazer to fit me.  Let me know if you are at all interested in a tutorial on how I did it, because I am like 99% sure that my my brain might explode trying to put together a how-to on pretty much anything I do(cause I’m a little random when I create), and I want to make sure it’s worth trying.  Loves to you all.

    I would DEFINITELY be interested in an alterations tutorial. I’m petite AND quite curvy, so blazers are particularly fun – have to get it in a small enough size in the first place, and if it fits in the shoulders it’s always way too big in the waist, so I usually just pass because my alteration skills are poor.

    Love this outfit btw, so simple and cute :)

  7. Love this blazer! I’m a petite, too, but I’ve never bought any blazer from Target because I feel that it’s still a little too big in some spots. I’d love to see how you altered these! :)

    I dread going to costco. I always buy something I don’t need. It’s the costco trap. Everything looks so appealing. Cute outfit as always.

    It must have been the thing to do on Saturday because the hubs & I ended up dropping 200+ at Costco as well. Only it was rainy here and I didn’t look as cute as you! :)

  11. I’m thinking I need to try your version of Saturday! Sounds a heck of a lot better than mine, lately!

  12. adorable! and yes, a blazer tutorial would be awesome. I always find ones I like, but they are usually too boxy and big, while the tiny ones are too small for my chest.
