The Top That I Own in Four Colors

Excuse me as IĀ attemptĀ to dress for the weather over here. One day I am wearing sweaters and the next it’s full out spring. However, I won’t complain because I am excited to wear spring pieces, even if it’s only once a week. If I had to pick a spring uniform to wear for casual days and even date nights, this would be it. I have raved about this top on countless occasions (most recently in yesterday’s post!) but I think I have found my favorite color yet. You know you have a problem when you own the same shirt in four different colors, but this pink ruffle top takes the cake when it comes to the best shade.

Given the event, the outfit would not be complete without purple and a few Kendra Scott pieces.

Another ruffle and a neck scarf makes it a pretty trendy Monday here on ABM. There is no denying my love for ruffles (see Thursday’s post) but neck scarves are a trend I have been interested in trying for a few months. When I first saw this silk scarf at cabi’s Blogger Day back in May, I knew it had to be part of my fall wardrobe. I’m looking forward to styling it with all the fall colors and textures in a few weeks, but I decided to go with a more weather appropriate styling in the meantime. This ruffle sleeve top and neck scarf is a great summer to fall transitional look.

Lilac Ruffle Sleeve Cardigan

summer to fall outfit idea

I am sure you are starting to sense a common theme around here. Yes, I will confess. I have a ruffle problem. And the funniest thing is until last year, I never really liked them! Ruffles of the past, in my opinion, were over the top girly and often seemed overwhelming. Which I realize is ironic since this lilac ruffle sleeve cardigan has some pretty big sleeves.
