Bright Ideas

One of the ways many people show their appreciation for art and color is wearing it. We're not talking about wearing sandwich board paintings on a street corner, we're talking about fashion.

When I was 18, I got my first credit card. I maxed it out within a week. Did I think I was some straight up baller like P.Diddy with a black card? Yup. My nasty little shopping habit wasn't such a bright idea for a college girl on a ramen and Diet Coke meal plan. But I did know one thing, I loved expressing myself through my clothes. Three part time jobs, a new credit card limit and some sweet Holiday sales later I was back on track. Luckily, our bright ideas at Blackbird Attic will only help your closet become more colorful at a fraction of the cost *wink*.

Sweater Weather

 Weezer, "Undone"

Much to my chagrin, it's still sweater weather. And the temps haven't risen above freezing in the last few days. Such is life in the Northeast in the winter.

The best part of the cold weather, and yes, there is a best part, are the fun, fuzzy sweaters that we get to wear. Luckily, sweaters come in a variety of styles, shapes etc and we can wear them any way we'd like. To transition into Spring, because my fingers are crossed that it is still actually coming, I've selected sweaters to pair with skirts and, for now, tights.


Style Tip 1: Mix prints. 

Style Tip 2: Layer On.

  

Style Tip 3: Different lengths, different looks. 

1) Sparrow / Blue Ombre Sweater / XS / $22, Boden / Tan Polka Dot Skirt / 12 / $13.99

2) Lucky / Beige Silk Skirt / Small / $13.50, Lord and Taylor / Beige Cardigan / Medium / $16.50

3) Cynthia Rowley / Gray Bow Cardigan / XS / $17.50, Vintage / SK and Company / 6 / $10.50
