Hello ladies! Sorry this post is so late tonight. I just got back from working out with my trainer. I feel both exhausted and exhilarated. I also did some cardio today which was great. I really have to work on building my endurance. Skinny is no fun when you’re weak.
I decided to bring my iPhone with me to use as an iPod for the cardio portion of my workout and it occurred to me that I could watch YouTube videos while I worked out. I used to watch E! News at the gym to keep my mind off of cardio (because I hate it) and the YouTube videos worked great! I was able to catch up on some of my favorite beauty guru’s new videos all while breaking a sweat…I mean glisten.
I ordered some stuff over the weekend from American Eagle and sadly, two of the items have to go back. I got a sweater (they sent the wrong color and I didn’t love how it fit) and skinny jeans (their sizes are inconsistent so those didn’t fit me either.) But I did get one cute item. Just a simple navy blue cardigan that I wore today. Here is my outfit:
Shirt- Forever 21
Cardigan- American Eagle
Skirt- Target
Belt- J. Crew
Shoes- Jessica Simpson
Bag- MbMJ
Necklace- Forever 21

Before I go, I just want to say I am completely humbled and amazed by the incredible readers I have. Thank you to every single person who took the time to write a heartfelt comment on my last post. It really means a lot to me that you support me and care enough to comment—so thank you!
xoxo,
Veronika.

Awww, very cute outfit Veronika! I love it, and I've been really feeling navy lately- I just ordered my first navy jacket EVER (hahaha) and I'll definitely be using this outfit as inspiration!
Youtube videos during cardio- brilliant! I usually try to catch up on my magazine reading when I work out, but there's only so much of that a girl can do…bleh.
Lilly says
Oh, bummer about your order. Major dislike when stores aren't consistent with their sizing. It makes online shopping so much harder.
Great outfit! The necklace is adorable.

Now this is how to wear a belt and cardi! I think the outfit could have looked ever better with a bold colored cardi.
I'm loving these: https://canvas.landsend.com/pp/TheHeritageCardigan~203167_-1.html?CM_MERCH=REC-_-CVPP-_-GGT-_-3-_-386056-_-385733

@anon- because I'm so tall, I prefer to wear a longer cardigan to balance my figure out a bit. On someone more petite the cardigan you posted would work well!

oh you meant bold color, sorry! I do have some bolder colors but just kept this outfit all about a navy blue palette.

Love the blue and black together! I used to be weird about wearing that combination but I'd like to think I've learned how to do it the right way, just like you did with this outfit. I think it looks great. 🙂 It's a nice change from wearing just black with black. That necklace is so pretty too!

linsday- the skirt is actually also navy blue but the pictures make it look darker 🙂 though I do love wearing navy and black together as well!
Lindsay says
No way! Is it really? It looks black on my computer! Either way, your outfit is wicked cute!
Andi says
I love navy paired with pink or purple, so classic!
Joi says
I love those shoes, still!

What an adorable necklace, Veronika! It's so different. I never seem to locate cute silver jewelry!
<3, natasha

Hi!
Just wondering why you changed your Formspring to being private? I created an account and requested to follow because I really enjoy your questions, but it seemed a little unecessary. Can't you just delete any rude questions?
Just curious!
Thanks!

Hi there! I chose to make my formspring page private because I'd like to control who follows me. You can still view the formspring page at any time by clicking on the "F" button on the top left of this page. thank you!
Michelle says
Clicked on the F and it's still private.
I have no interest in making a FormSpring account either. Oh well.
I've been wearing a lot of cardigans on top of skirts and dresses lately. I'm kind of getting bored with the look and I'm in need to come up with some sort of variety.

I actually un did the privacy because it was only a handful of people I wanted to block getting questions from. It's no longer private.

I can't take my eyes off of your purse! Such a great color and design! Great choice, plus your style is fantastic!

You've got beautiful hair and I love your bag!

Hi Veronika,
I was the one that posted about needing a dress for a fall wedding. do you think this is cute for it and depending on the weather, I will wear pantyhose. Please give ur honest opinion.

@anon- I absolutely love that dress and would wear it myself! I want that dress now!!! Love it 🙂

Really? I kind of thought maybe it was too much of a casual dress, too casual for a wedding. it is an outdoor wedding so I plan on wearing pantyhose if the weather is too cold. what kind of jewelry would u rec? I love that it is navy a bit and it reminded me of this post.
[email protected] says
ok i just noticed it was on sale- I must have it! I might order it later tonight because i love it!
I would say no necklace with this one- let the pretty detailing at the neck shine. I would add a bracelet and large stud earrings 🙂

Yes order it! I am about to order it myself and hope it fits well. A second opinion always helps especially from a beauty guru like yourself! Thanks a bunch!
