sweet obsessions...


yellow seems to be the color these days.
in fact, i was totally obsessed yesterday when my coworker
came to work with a yellow mustard cardigan sweater.
i had to get my hands on one.
asked some fellow twitters and they suggested a few stores.
i checked:
anthropologie: but everything there is over my budget,
j. crew: over my budget as well.
old navy:  they had none.
and oh, sweet joy even suggested an online shop called yesstyle.com and they had this:
cute, yeah?
and the price is reasonable too.
well, the funny thing is that i completely forgot i had an almost mustard yellow
sweater that i had gotten at F21 a couple of years ago for $9.50!
i just never wore it.
i bought it because of the price but wasn't really into the color at the time
but now i'm just loving it!
glad i happened to stumble upon it in my closet this morning.
oh, and please pardon the mess in the background ; ) 
i didn't bother to clean before i took this picture.

so what are you wanting, crushing, loving on this week?

Any shade of yellow, I'm a fan :) Isn't it amazing to go "shopping" to your own closet? ;) Hih! I tend to forget things there too, so always fun to make "new" finds!

That yellow sweater looks fantastic on you! Honestly, I completely understand the obsession with yellow: you can't look at it and not be happy, right? I definitely need to add more yellow into my closet -- and my life.

Yellow is one of my very favorite colors. I love all shades of it. I think it's so bright and cheery, and can really go with just about anything.
