Getting over the gloom

It has been a cold and gloomy week here in South Carolina. Last night it snowed, which is a rare sighting in the South, and especially rare so late into the season. Luckily, our spring break is next week and we are headed south (all the way south in fact) to Key West. Though we are only three days away from paradise, this week has been full of papers, midterms, (as if our professors would let us have a relaxing week to get mentally prepared for spring break debauchery) and packing for the big trip. Needless to say, we needed a break from the stress of it all, so we grabbed a bite to eat downtown…here's what we wore:



Karmen is pictured here wearing: boyfriend jeans and leather jacket from Gap, sweater from Ann Taylor, scarf from Charming Charlie's, owl necklace and ring from Charlotte Russe, and Michael Kors heels.









Mandy is pictured here wearing: dress, cardigan, tights, and shoes from Target, belt from Delia's, vintage necklace and ring.







[Right now, we must shop on a college student's budget — but as you can see, you don't necessarily have to splurge to put together a good outfit!]

Now we must get back to packing for Key West. Expect another post soon about all the essentials we feel are needed for a fabulous spring break vacation!
