Admittedly, when I go home to Toronto, I don’t pack that well. Inevitably, I’m always either over-packed or under-packed. I’m under-packed, because I usually don’t bring the correct layers–jackets, sweaters, etc. And sometimes I’m over-packed, because I always end up wearing the same thing anyway. Take this yellow J.Crew Tippi Sweater for example:
I wasn’t even going to bring it with me but at the last minute before leaving the apartment, I slipped it over my head because my dad likes to blast the A/C in the car and I needed something to keep me warm despite the blazing heat outdoors.
Even though I don’t *really* need to, I am thrilled to be able to wear this layer anyway. Toronto does get heat and humidity during the summer, but it is nowhere near what it is in DC. The fact that being able to wear this layer as an option makes me so happy.
The first two outfits aren’t dramatically different, but when you’re living out of a suitcase, you have to make do with what you have. I know the color of the photos are a bit washed out, but I made a new spot in the house to take some photos and the lighting is a bit weird and I didn’t put too much effort into trying to fix them via post-processing.
Fam jam:
Running errands:
You might not be able to tell because of the flash, but the sweater is a bit sheer so you can see the stripes of the tank through it which I thought was fun.
All three ways are well put together and have given me some inspiration for outfits…especially for work wear as a teacher.
I think you did a great job re-styling the yellow sweater! I have a pair of yellow jeans that I’m still trying to figure out how to style.
Maybe you can do a shoulder length bob style with some layers and maybe side swept bangs?
I love this bright color!
great idea. i have a yellow sweater too and have not wear it yet.

All three ways are gorgeous! I cannot even pick a favorite! You have a great sense of style!
I am giving away three unique pairs of handmade earrings on my blog and I’ll be so glad if you join! XoXoPlamihttp://www.fashionthrill.com/
I love the first look most. I think each piece is really unique in its own way. For the hair, I 1. usually look for pictures of celebrities with similar face shapes like mine and see what looks good on them; and 2. remind me of the hairstyles that looked good on me in the past.
I find that mid-length hair requires more styling work than others do. Since your face is oval, I say most hairstyle would flatter it :).
Cute sweater , love all the pairings! Sry, no advice on hair except layers??
Love teh casual look in your last pic. This sweater is cute, bright and versatile.
Thanks for sharing outfits tips. I’m thinking to get Tippi sweater so it is really interesting to me.
You styled this sweater very well! Looove the J. Crew pop art pants. The large polka dot print makes it so grown up and chic.

I love this yellow sweater and I adore it all three ways! My favorite is the first one- so so cute.
What a great post! I always love “wear it 3 ways” ideas, since I’m guilty of not wearing most of the items sitting in my closet enough. My favorite of the 3 is the first one, with the dotted pants…you look adorable!
Love, S
