Well, it looks like the winter weather finally caught up to us around here. We have snow in the forecast for almost every day this week. Yuck! I've been hibernating in the house for the most part with my hot chocolate because I am a super sissy.
Oh, and don't judge me for the poinsettia/Christmas decorations still being out. I honestly have no real excuse. I kind of forgot they were there until I was looking through these pictures...oops! Poinsettias aren't necessarily just Christmas things are they? Can they be considered a Winter thing? Okay, so I'm just looking for an excuse to not have to go outside again and take them in.
Anyway, on to the good stuff: I am so excited to share this great top from The Mint Julep Boutique with you. I was beyond thrilled when they asked me to review their product. It took me forever to pick something out because I loved everything on their site! This top is really soft and comfortable, which is a big deal for me. I can't handle wearing starchier fabrics. Comfort is key for me! I also loved the length of this top. I have a longer torso so sometimes tops end up being too short on me. This one was perfect!

Yay, I'm doing one for them later this week! Your top looks great... I love the one you picked!
ReplyDeleteThat top looks great on you!! I had a hard time with some of the links in the rafflecopter ... Instagram's didn't go through ....and twitter's I had to play with to find you both ... just wanted you to know, in case anyone else had a problem :)
ReplyDeleteLove the top! Looks like something I would live in. I'm all about comfort. Sometimes I try to wear something because I like how it looks, but if it's uncomfortable I always end up changing halfway through the day. And I love longer tops because I think they look better with my skinny jeans that I love. Oh, and I still have a few decorations out too haha
ReplyDeleteThat top is so cute! Love the striped back detail. And of course you know I love black and white combos, so this outfit is right up my alley. Great look!

ReplyDeleteIt seriously is one of those tops! So comfortable and flowy. I've done the same thing, if something I'm wearing isn't comfortable I end up changing. So glad to hear that I'm not the only one with decorations still out! hahaha!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Gina! I've definitely been loving all of your black and white combos too!
ReplyDeleteYeah, it's actually snowing outside right now too. Yuck!! I am not a fan of snow. Maybe one day I will move somewhere warmer. haha! And thank you, I love a good comfortable top.

I love that top! I like my shirts to be long because short shirts seem to really bother me for some reason. And It's okay about the poinsettias, it took me forever to take the Christmas tree down, so I know how you feel lol.
ReplyDeletehaha at least I'm honest! Thanks so much! I actually bought these on sale around Christmas for only $5! Do you believe that?! I was super excited! They make even a casual outfit look dressy
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! <3
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Jill!
ReplyDeletehaha thanks! Maybe I will take them down sometime this week. And I am the same way. I hate the stupid "cropped" top trend that's been so popular for a while now. I want long shirts.
ReplyDeleteI love this tunic top and you look radiant.

ReplyDeleteMelanie @ meandmr.com
Thank you so much! It was really hard to pick just one item from their site. They have so many beautiful things! I'm so glad I picked this top because it is so soft and comfortable
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Rachelle <3
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! We just got more snow over night. Yuck! I don't think we are supposed to get hit as hard as some other places tho.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Cynthia!
ReplyDeleteThey really do! I had such a hard time picking one item. haha! I wanted one of everything!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I was so excited when I got their email. I love their clothing and I have seen them all over blogland.
ReplyDeleteI love this top! Longer tops are great so u can wear them with jeans or leggings and your butt is still covered!! lol
ReplyDeleteExactly!! I don't like the look of leggings with shorter tops.
ReplyDeleteThat top is so so cute on you! I love the black and white look going on here!
ReplyDelete~Sara

Thanks so much! They do have a lot of great merchandise.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sara! Black in white is my "go to" a lot of the time.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I was so worried I was going to blend into the snowy background with those white jeans. lol!
ReplyDeleteAww thanks!! It is definitely one of my favorite tops right now. So comfortable but still stylish. I've been trying to wear my white jeans more often too. They just have a way of dressing up an outfit
ReplyDeleteThis is such a crisp, pretty outfit, especially in front of a background of snow.
ReplyDeleteI love that shirt! I just came from the What I Wore Link Up. You should come link up over at my style & beauty link up! The Style Files Link-Up
