Outfit: Elbow Patches

Can you believe I got this sweater in the girl's section of Forever 21? Sharon of The Tiny Heart recently found a cute cardigan in Target's girl section, so when I saw this adorable sweater I figured I could make it work. It's a little short in the torso, but I don't mind because the fabric is thick and warm, and it has floral elbow patches, so I couldn't resist. 

Tomorrow is my office's holiday party, so I'm excited to dress up a little. Then afterwards is my very last class. I still can't believe I'll have a master's degree soon! As my dad says, "I'm a Master of Creative Writing." Haha! Also, I want to wish my little brother, Leo, a very happy 21st birthday!
Sweater: Forever 21 Girls | Undershirt: old | Jeans: Hollister | Boots: Amazon

    So adorable!! When I was getting dressed today I really wished my blazer would have had elbow patches on it. I just think they add so much fun to an outfit!

    It's amazing the cute stuff you can find in the kids section at certain stores... and if you're petite, it all fits! {This still seems odd to me, but then I realise most of the teenagers I see on the bus are a lot bigger than I am - so maybe not.} This sweater is adorable, such a great find :)

    That sweater is ADORABLE!!! I don't think I could ever fit into anything in the girls section at Forever21! I rarely fit into a large there to begin with. I hope you'll share some photos of your fancy outfit for your office holiday party!
