Gigi's Gear - lace inset cardi

I got this cardi during the Nordstrom Anniversary sale this past July & finally busted wore it a few weeks ago. It's from the Brass Plum Dept and was on sale for like...$35 or something.

This pic is dedicated to GingerSnap - Ginger, I felt so sassy in my cardi, I struck a pose like you.


Cardigan: Nordstrom (Similar here, here,
this one would be cute w/a skirt for spring and this is one from Torrid)

Necklace: Forever 21 (Similar here)
Jeans: Probably J Crew bootcut from J'Crewlet

  2. Hi Gigi :)

    Just catching up with your posts! You ARE going to start going to Martin+Osa then?????? YAY!!!!!!!! :)

    Their website makes everything look a bit plain (compared to the fabulous Jcrew website and catalogs where everything always looks great) but once you go to the store and try their items on, it's a different story. I ALWAYS find something great to buy there ( for example, the velvet blazer they were selling recently is such a classic, much better quality and fit than Eden blazer which turned out to be a real disappointment for me IRL....) I bought these boots on 50% sale (they have this promo on sweaters very often) and I used a 20% coupon:

    They came to about $114 with free shipping. Those are just two examples, I keep going to their store and I always find something cute.

    Anyway, that was a long post, sorry :))

    I think I'm still on my morning coffee buzz, I feel like Lance Armstrong haha (Wall Street journal had an article yesterday on coffee "Is coffee the new drug"; I say- it's a necessity :)

    Glad you recovered quickly !

  3. Excellent Torrid shout-out. Would love to see more of that and other plus sized stores in the upcoming year. Even if you can't I'll still keep coming back for the amazing inspiration you provide. Keep up the great work.

  5. Thanks for the shout out!!! I love the top POP by the way :) you look fabulous and very put together...perfect "cardi party!"

    I don't know if you saw or not, but I referenced your blog a couple days ago regarding the JC silk swirl blouse :). You do THE best reviews!

  6. I love this sweater, very cute! I gotta say, I was confused fir a second there. I was like "Gigi is totally rocking this cute sweater" then I see your tribute to Gingersnap, and I was like "wait, I thought I was just reading Gigi's blog". I had to do a double check. You totally looked like you could be Gingersnap's twin. :)

  9. FFM - Thanks! :-)

    SanFranCA - I have a M+O post for 12/31. I hope to get behind a wheel soon. I probably won't get to the store until mid-late Jan. Coffee is so a drug. I am a chatterbox when I have a cup. I only have it once/month or so. Fo reals.

    Anon/11:37 AM - Yay! Thanks so much for the feedback. I come across some cute things, esp from Torrid. I didn't think...well, now I know. Plus size doesn't sound sexy so I'm going to try to remember to use curvy. ;-)

    Chelcie - Thx for stopping by. I am a big fan of buy now, decide later. Ppl are snapping up things so quickly and retailers are not re-ordering.

    GingerSnap - You're welcome & thanks for the shoutout. Yes, I saw how fab you looked in the swirl tank. So pretty w/your skin color.

    Rosa in DC - *lol* thanks for visiting

    Lawgirl - These pics are a few weeks old. I'm not quite there yet...but getting closer each day. Full mobility is going to be a dream come true.

    Anon/Rachel - If it makes you feel better, the sweater is an acrylic blend. *lol* ;-) But I *do* love it.

  12. Oh, that outfit is gorgeous Gigi! LOVE the cardi (and what a steal of a price!) and the pearls against it are lovely. Yet it's not too fussy because you paired it with jeans, so it just seems chic. Great job :)
