Latest Outfit: Don't Sweat It

Vancouver blogger Lisa Wong of the blog Solo Lisa wears a cream-and-grey Forever 21 sweatshirt with a kelly green J. Crew pencil skirt. She finishes the look with a stack of gold and white enamel bracelets, pointy-toed leopard flats that have grosgrain bows on the vamp, and a little red crossbody bag.

As a recovering fast fashion addict who's purged countless Forever 21 purchases from my closet, I admit I felt a twinge of guilt when I bought this sweatshirt on a whim last week. But the heather grey raglan sleeves and classic style proved too irresistible a combination. I used the sweatshirt to dress down a pencil skirt and leopard pointy-toed flats—the perfect outfit for a relaxing Sunday. I'm already picturing it with other low-key outfits (skinny jeans and metallic loafers!), or as a casual counterpoint to ladylike lace. Maybe this wardrobe regret might turn out to be a wardrobe revelation after all.

Happy Monday!

  1. I have over spent at F21 in the past and have often regretted buying those poor quality pieces in such bulk. This sweatshirt is lovely though and I think you'll wear it a ton!

    1. Yes, the regret is definitely there when I think of past purchases too.

  2. I know exactly how you feel about Forever 21. As soon as I've rid my closet of fast fashion, I'm tempted to buy some more! I've actually been looking for a sweatshirt just like that. It looks much more expensive than F21.
