Plaid all the Way


I love the spin on traditional plaid the last few years.  Sure, I love my plaid button down shirt, and I don't plan on saying goodbye to it anytime soon, but I am enjoying the more professional styles that plaid is showing up in such as pixie pants, blazers and blouses.  When I saw this plaid patterned blouse, with the cute ruffle details, and the over sized sleeves, I knew I had to order it.  I was hoping not to love everything I ordered from RW & Co but that didn't work out for me.  This is the first item I want to showcase.  


I've already worn the blouse twice and both times I received complements.  Though I am featuring it here as a comfortable and loose fitted top, I did tuck it into my jeans and it looks super cute, sorry I forgot to snap a picture.  I paired it up with my once again favorite ON jeans, and booties because it's finally fall and I love me a good pair of booties.  I have to replace my black ones so if you have a comfortable go-to pair please let me know!  These gray ones are the perfect height for work, are super comfortable to walk around school all day or to run errands on the weekend.  Giving this look the final touch is my trusted H&B statement necklace, an oldie but I linked some similar and cheaper options below.  






I had the best day on Saturday with my family.  We really needed a weekend free of play dates, sleepovers and obligations.  We headed to the mall to buy a birthday present and to just shop around.  We made a rare but delicious pit stop at Wetzel Pretzel and shared some tasty treats.  We ended our day off with a movie night at home, watching a Dog's Journey.  So so so good.  If you are a dog loving family, like we are, it'll get you right in the heart.  



We are heading into Canadian Thanksgiving weekend, so Canadian friends may you have a wonderful weekend with the people you love.  Be thankful and merry.

  6. The sleeves on this plaid blouse are so fun and the color is just so pretty. I can see why it ended up being a keeper! We saw A Dog's Journey and that was such a great movie. It's rare that I watch anything anymore but when it's as good as this movie, I can't help myself! I hope you had a great week and wishing you a wonderful weekend ahead! Happy Thanksgiving as well.

    1. Do you have pets? It's so hard to think about our pups passing away so we were all teary eyed but also our hearts were full. Loved reading your travel post!

  7. What a darling plaid top. Something different from the plaid flannels that come out this time of year. Would be darling paired with a skirt, too.

  10. Bo, this shirt is so adorable! I love plaid and a little twist on the traditional plaid tops is always refreshing! I have been wanting to see A Dog’s Journey but every time I suggest it, my kids shoot me down! I guess I need to just watch it alone. Thanks for linking up this week!
