Head over to my “Try-Ons” saved stories on Instagram for my sweatshirt review. Pairing warm weather items with cool weather items. I love this! A great option for a cooler day. XOXO Do you feel influenced yet? (follow me @carissa_cruse)

Sweatshirt; Shorts: Agolde Parker Vintage; Sandals: Manebi Hamptons Bow Sandals in Black; Manebi One Belt Yucatan Sandal I bought these sandals entirely because of the company’s Instagram marketing. ENTIRELY. The Instagram photos are GORGEOUS. The company is Italian, and the photos are of beautiful people wearing such bright colored shoes with this exquisite seaside background.
