Friday's Favorite Fit: Cobalt Blue!

By Cool J in Minneapolis

LL frequently handles the fashion portion of this blog, while I write more about fitness. But both of us agree that we are throwing a fit for the same thing right now in fashion....cobalt blue!

As LL wrote about here, we were also throwing a fit for mint recently. I definitely still love mint! I donned my favorite mint necklace the other day for work, paired with a mint sweater from the Gap, and a chambray shirt from JCrew.

 So, we're still loving mint, but now we're also in love with cobalt! LL has found some very cute cobalt pieces to complement her looks, such as:

Suede Aldo pumps- find them HERE for only $30!

How about some Old Navy cobalt flats? Find them here for only $14!

And this gorgeous cobalt Zara blazer!
Find a similar one HERE

LL has definitely found some good deals to fulfill her need for cobalt. I've only purchased a few cobalt pieces, but I'm loving them! I purchased this Banana Republic skirt last fall.

Remember my post about the knockoff JCrew flower bib necklaces? (Read it HERE) Well, cobalt blue was my of color selections!

TopShop has lots of options in our new favorite color. 

3D Flower Collared Shell Top- Buy it HERE

And my newest favorite, the Cole Haan LunarGrand Wingtips for women. 

Normally $198, but I found them on sale for much cheaper!

So that's our favorite fit for this Friday- cobalt!

What color are you loving this season? Purchased anything cobalt lately?

Finalize my Fit: Post birthday recap

By Jessie

Last night I wore my Topshop dress (as I previously discussed here)- it was a little dressy for the venue, but it's my party, and I can wear a dress if I want to, right?

It was only in the low 50's yesterday, so unfortunately, I wasn't able to pair the dress with the heels I had purchased especially for the occasion...sad.

Instead, I had to go with boots. But sometimes fashion has to follow function my friends. Especially in the midwest. These heels were pretty tall too, and I have a feeling they may have become quite uncomfortable after a long evening out. I will have to save them for another outfit.

Now, truth be told, this picture was taken at the end of the evening...but it's the only one I have of the entire ensemble.

I paired the outfit with an LL original necklace (thanks sister- this necklace has helped me complete several outfits!)

I didn't get a good picture of my purse, but you can see it in this picture:

It's a brown leather clutch that I purchased at Len Druskin a year ago.

I had a woman in the restroom ask me if my dress was vintage. In fact, she insisted it was vintage, even after I told her I just bought it at TopShop. Maybe I should have just gone with it? Though it makes me wonder what it was about the style that made her think that...any ideas?

Well, thanks for reading folks. Time to head to another Moksha Yoga class to detox after all the celebrating.
