Fold Over.

Have you ever wondered why off-the-shoulder tops, dresses, and sweaters were also called bardot tops? omg same. (if you didn't say yes, this is awkward lol.)  

Basically, the style was influenced by the outfit worn by the famous French actress, singer, and fashion icon Bridgett Bardot at the 1953 Cannes Film Festival. You learn something new every day ;) #FashionFactsbyDEMIB

This "bardot" trend is one that sneakily found its way into fall -- we'll see whether or not it get carried into winter, but I doubt it. Why? because wearing off-the-shoulder tops with a jacket is quite arguably the hardest and most uncomfortable thing ever. Don't believe me? try it. You either awkwardly pull it up so it can kind of sit like a regular top under your jacket OR you have to leave it the way it is and have a clump of fabric sitting weirdly under you armpit. Its a lose lose situation unless there's some life hack I don't yet. If there is pleaseeeee let your girl know. 

But hey, maybe off the shoulder jackets are the next hot item? but then like, your shoulders would literally freeze..

After what feels like years, I'm back and I'm better folks. I don't know if you'll believe me when I say this, but I've had these next few posts sitting for a while. Then why haven't I posted them?  Life (aka Purdue Engineering) happened and literally stole all of my time away.


But I'm fine. It's fine. Hell week (aka the past 3 weeks of my collegiate life) have passed and I'm baaaaaackkkkk. ;)

I wish you could feel the softness of this sweater through the screen -- it's kind of amazing. This sweater from Chicwish.com has the perfect hair-tuckable mock collar and I'm kind of in love with it. 

[ps. Get 20% off this sweater now until November 2nd with the code Hallo20]

I styled it with black jeans and black booties? shocker. I love the minimal look that pairing camel with black bring and I'm not sorry about it. I know what you're thinking -- Demi, do you own any other jeans besides your James Jeans? I promise I do, but they're are just so comfy and stretchy its hard to not want to wear them. 

Don't knock it 'till you try it.
