March Madness

If you’ve followed me for any amount of time, you know that I live and die for basketball season; so it’s both incredibly exciting and sad that March Madness is {almost} here. It’s exciting because it’s the first month that I’m co-hosting the How I Style It monthly link up and this month’s theme is team colors! And of course, it’s sad because I’m going to miss Kentucky basketball when it’s all said and done…just not as much as I did last year.

I hope you’ll join us and share a blog post with your team colors and school spirit; check out the instructions at the end of this post 🙂

As soon as I heard that the theme for this month’s link up, I ordered this tee. To be honest, I was already looking for a reason to justify the purchase so this really just made the choice easier.  Not long after I ordered this one, it also came out in blue with a white banner — obsessed! {But I don’t need both….or do I?}

I love this blue patterned open blazer, especially the fun fringe tassel detail at the hem. I immediately thought it would look super cute over this sassy Kentucky tee while still staying in the school spirited state of mind. And obviously when rooting on the Cats, I always bring some leopard print. This bag is the perfect size for going to games because it holds all the essentials: tickets, keys, money, cards and of course my lucky sloth socks. {Don’t call me superstitious, UK went undefeated all of last season and then the one time I don’t wear the socks!}   

I opted for simple accessories and a bright spring nail. I’ve been loving the OPI New Orleans collection lately and this shade, Got Myself Into a Jam-balaya, is my current favorite. Rings are a newer obsession of mine and this open pearl ring caught my eye pretty quickly; I grabbed a blue stretch bracelet and my wood watch to finish off my accessories.
