Loving my Banana Republic Color Block Key Hole Cutout top!

Ann Taylor Navy Pocket Skirt, Size 4 (2012)

Key hole back of top

Nine West Cutout Peep Toe Heels (Outlet for $29.98)

Good morning!  I am feeling well rested today.  Boy what a difference a good night of sleep makes!  I think I may have fallen asleep before my 3-year-old last night!  I saw her wandering out of her room a little after 9:00 last night, but when she saw our bedroom door close, she got back into bed, thank goodness!  I was tired all day yesterday, even my bright orange skirt wasn’t enough to make me wake up!

When I saw this top on the sale rack in Banana Republic, I liked the color blocking, but it looked a little plain.  Then I saw the key hole cut out in the back and I had to try it on!  I grabbed the Size 4 and 6, trying the Size 4 on first, but it was way too tight across the bust and the arm holes were too small.  Even the 6 doesn’t give a lot of wiggle room for your shoulders and arms. I loved the look of the top.  It was more fitted across my bust and looser in the waist, but this is probably because of my giant rib cage!  I loved the overall look and feel of the top and the back really won me over.  I bought the top on sale with an additional 30% off last month, but it can be found here for $24.99).  I decided to wear my Navy A-line Pocket Skirt from Ann Taylor, Size 4 (2012) and added a little color with my necklace yellow and lime green necklace (which can be seen in another outfit here).  I would normally wear my navy American Rag shoes with Navy, but I’ve worn them a lot lately and decided to switch things up with this pair of Nine West Cut Out Peep Toes Heels that I bought at the outlet earlier this season for $29.98 (buy one get one half off- my friend bought the same pair in a different color, so we bought them together to get the discount).  I couldn’t actually tell you the color of the shoes because they look gold in some light and platinum in a different light.  I think that’s why I liked them.  They are ambiguous and will match the color I’m wearing, at least that’s the hope! 

I hope everyone has a great day!  Thanks for stopping by!
