Butterfly Tippi Sweater for an Evening by the Fire Pit

J. Crew Merino Tippi Sweater in Stripe Monarch, Color: Citrus Sky Ivory, Size Small (Currently on sale here for $44.99)
Ann Taylor Blue Shorts, Size 4 (closet)


Hello!  I usually try to post the day that I wear an outfit, but my weekend was filled with lots of activities with friends and family; dinner at our house with friends on Friday, a picnic at the park, trip to the petting zoo, a play date for my daughter at yet another park and lots of errands!  In this picture, we are enjoying a nice fire in the fire pit, which is one of my husband’s favorite activities of Fall!  It was in the 70s today and a little chilly in the evening, so it was a perfect day to wear my J. Crew Merino Tippi Sweater in Stripe Monarch, Color: Citrus Sky Ivory, Size Small.  I bought this sweater back in June and have been waiting for a day cool enough to wear it!  My day finally arrived!  I think I paid $42 for the sweater.  It’s currently on sale here for $59.99 with an additional 25% off, so $44.99.  I just started shopping at J. Crew recently and I’ve found that their tops run a little big.  I thought this would be a little more fitted, but it’s definitely slouchy through the waist, but not too big.  I paired the sweater with Blue Shorts from Ann Taylor Shorts (2012).  I think I bought every color they had of these shorts when they were on sale and I practically live in them on the weekends.  The fit is great, they are short without being inappropriately short for a mom to wear and they are flattering.  Bonus; they are machine washable and whatever sticky fingers smear on me throughout the day washes right out!  What more can you ask for?
