Hey Ho, Let’s Go
Happy Monday Fam! We are both slowly easing back into the shift from our Spring to Summer schedules. Which means more volleyball, more activities, and as much time outside as we can possibly get. Unfortunately we have been dealing with an insane amount of April showers. Hopefully this means the May flowers will be equally as abundant. Either way we appreciate that the snow seems to be strictly in the rear view mirror at this point.
Anyways, we are here to interrupt your regularly scheduled Amalli Talli content for a brief moment with another band tee. Our favorite question still stands with these tops: “Do you even know their music?” To be honest, the answer is sometimes no. And I couldn’t care less. If I see it, I like it, I wear it and I want to respond with “It’s called fashion look it up” Obviously there is a little bit of sass/sarcasm to that response but that’s just kind of who I am.
I won’t bore you with the details of how my love for band tees started again; if you missed it give this a read! Typically I lean towards wearing my tees with a bomber, leather jacket, or something more casual but I stepped outside my comfort zone with this outfit and wanted to dress it up a bit more. I got this Ramone’s shirt many years ago and still can’t stop wearing it. Same for these cigarette jeans, they have been on heavy rotation this season. My heels are new from my birthday and I still can’t stop wearing them. I have them in black, nude, and floral…so far. They offer 10 colors in a wide range of sizes and the heel height/comfort passes with flying colors over here.
This blazer is something I stalked on Asos forever. For some reason I struggle with the prize of blazers frequently. I know it isn’t something you want to cheap out on, otherwise the quality will take a hit. I still just don’t like swallowing that price tag. However, working in a business professional setting, I have definitely purchased my fair share of blazers. So far I have tried Old Navy, Asos, Express, and some miscellaneous brands from Nordstrom Rack. I have recently been lusting over the Amalli Talli one because I know it would fit like a dream but it just isn’t in the budget at this moment.
As I mentioned I stalked this specific one, as we both do often to many items. We patiently wait for items to go on sale or let the fear of the “not many left” note get to us and impulse buy. The stalking and waiting of this one paid off majorly. It was favorited in Asos so even when it went out of stock I could see it and when it happened to come back in my size for under $20 I didn’t even have to think about it. I am so thankful to own this one, it is tailored looking, yet still the most comfortable blazer I own. It’s been worn to work monthly, if not more at this point!
I purchased this backpack for an upcoming trip, knowing that by the end of the day side bags usually start to hurt my shoulders. My hopes are high for this one making walking around all day much more comfortable. I would tell you where we are going, but Jenilee and I don’t know yet. It is a surprise trip location TBA and it is slowly but surely killing the planner in me. I want to know where, the weather, etc.
We have been pretty blog post heavy lately because we have too many items we are excited to post, so we have just been doing that! With that being said, I will keep it fairly short and sweet today. If you know of any great tall blazer companies I haven’t mentioned, I would love to hear from you below!
Here are some bonus pictures of the fit on Jenilee!
