[ShOe Inspired] A Cape Cardigan like Kendi Everyday!

Hi there!

Outfit - Blouse: Urban Outfitters, Bag: H&M, borrowed from the eldest, Belt: Target, Shorts: Forever 21, Shoes: Etsy, Cape Cardigan: Gift from a boutique in Tahoe.
Every time I wear this cardigan, the kids say it looks like I'm wearing a cape.  Well low and behold, one of my favorite bloggers, Kendi Everyday , styled a cape-like cardigan in her Weekend Wear blog post here.

Now I don't claim to even come close to her (I mean I couldn't even get my cardigan to float like a cape in these photos like she did in hers), but I am inspired by her.  Within the first few months of starting her blog, she posted this passage, "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." — Mark Twain


As I read this quote, it struck me that at the time, Kendi had no idea where her blog was going to take her; she was just doing something she loved and had a passion for.  Within a of couple years, Kendi has been endorsed by Target and gets sponsorship by other brands.  She recently fulfilled a dream of opening her own boutique, Bloom, which I encourage you to visit because it has super cute stuff!  I just ordered the Moss Approach Dress from the website and will feature it in a future post...can't wait to get it!

Do you have that thing or things you want to do but are too scared to?  Let me know because we all need encouragement in order for us to fly.  Thank you for visiting and being a part of my journey!

See you later!
