Whew, it's Monday. And there is lots going on here on the blog today for a Monday! Two different link ups going on! First up is Inspiration Monday with two birds. I love this picture of January Jones. I'll never be caught dead in leather pants though! No way I could ever pull them off. I still pulled together a little something though!
I wore this yesterday and really didn't even need the jacket. It was near 80 degrees for the first time in months! The entire weekend was absolutely gorgeous. Yesterday Mr. Monkey smoked some meats in his smoker and we had his family over for a barbeque. Of course, as soon as the food was ready it started to rain so we couldn't eat outside, but it was still a nice day!
Jacket - White House Black Market, thrifted
Jeans - Mossimo, Target
Sandals - Clothes Mentor
So I went out shopping with my mom on Saturday even though I don't want to spend any money right now. She was awesome and bought me some shoes! She bought me the ones I'm wearing above that are unfortunately kind of washed out by the sunlight and she bought me another pair that I wore to the wedding on Saturday. I'll have another post on my wedding wear at some point here!
My next outfit is for a fun link up that Literate and Stylish and The Modern Austen are hosting this week. It's a week of outfits inspired by Pantone's top color shades for spring. Today's color is emerald. I don't have any true emerald, but I chose a shade of green that was sort of close.
Sweater - NY&Co, thrifted
Skirt - American Eagle (very old)
Necklace - S&D
Sandals - Target (old)
It's still going to be warm today, so a skirt and sandals was a good choice! I don't know how well I'll keep up with the color challenge all week as I'm lacking some of these hues in my closet, but we'll see how things go!

So, like I said, lots of linking up today! Be sure to head over to two birds for more Inspiration Monday looks and over to Literate and Stylish for other Pantone inspired looks!
