Remember when I said in one of my posts last week that it was one of my favorite outfits to date? I think this one may be giving the white jeans/stripes/utility vest a run for it’s money. Insider tip: you can always tell the outfits I love the most by how many pictures are in a post. I wore this outfit out to dinner with my family over the weekend. And yes, I wore jeans despite it being 100 degrees out because I am crazy like that. I wanted this adorable White Plum blouse to stand out, and in my mind there is no better way to do that than to pair a fun top with dark denim. I just love the Southwest flair and pom-pom details on the sleeves of this top. If you follow me on Instagram (@lindsayrutland), you will know that I had a fantastic mail week last week, so I couldn’t wait to pile on my new goodies. This was the maiden voyage of my Love Always nameplate necklace and I know it is going to be an everyday staple for me from now on. You can get your own name plate from Love Always, or any other pieces from their jewelry line for 15% off with the code MOS at check out.

Now for the fun part… I recently reached 1,000 Instagram followers and wanted to offer a little giveaway to my readers. When I found BTB (@BTBjewelry) on Instagram, I fell in love with their shop and especially the earrings I am wearing in this post. I wanted to give one lucky winner a few of my favorite things, including the Blinging Beauty Earrings from BTB Jewelry, an Essie nailpolish in the shade Go Ginza, and a $10 Starbucks gift card. The giveaway will begin at 12am on July 30th and will end at 12am on August 8th. I will verify all entries, so please be honest. The winner will be contacted within 48 hours after the contest has ended. Good luck and thank you for participating!

This outfit is really cute – the top is lovely, and you styled it perfectly. Love the dark jeans with those sandals!
I would style the earrings with dark jeans and a white tee, allowing the focus to remain on the accessories.
middleofsomewhere says
thank you so much! I love the idea of dressing up a white tee. good luck 🙂

I was just thinking how cute your earrings are and then lo and behold a giveaway! Love it. I would style them with everything honestly. Maybe a more monochrome outfit to make them stand out.
PS thanks for stopping by my blog earlier!
