Sometime between the end of summer and the beginning of fall, I developed a fascination with a very basic wardrobe piece - the ivory cable knit pullover. The simple shape, cozy texture, and classic vibe intrigued me. Furthermore, it's an easy wardrobe fix for the conundrum of what to wear with all of my printed pants. Fortunately, I enjoyed a brief bout of chill in the air before the current heat wave by pairing my knit with some Baroque print jeans.

On the topic of printed denim, it's an obvious wardrobe favorite of mine. My first foray into scarf-inspired denim was this boldly printed pair pictured below from Topshop, which I snagged last spring and and wore in May with a thrifted blouse, Xhilaration necklace, Topshop sunglasses, an Aldo handbag, and Topshop pumps.

Are you into printed denim, and if so, what are your favorite prints?

I love that Topshop pair! The color is so fun. I saw some Baroque-esque jeans at Forever 21 over the weekend, but they weren't exactly what I was looking for so I didn't get them. Maybe I'll get some brocade instead. I do like those trousers too. And simple sweaters are the perfect matching accessory to crazy prints! <3

I love your daring printed denim in both looks! This is such a cute, fashion-forward trend! The color of your blouse in the second look is so gorgeous too.
