Henley Pocket Long Sleeve Blouse in Flame Red ($49.50) | shop - Underneath the blazer, I'm wearing the Long Sleeve Henley.  It's in a fabulous color, and I really enjoy this modern take on a Henley.  I believe one of its only drawbacks is that it's a polyblend, but I think it's definitely worth checking out.

Flat Twill Cropped Blazer ($128) | shop - I did like this blazer.  Since seeing Jean of Extra Petite rock a textured monochromatic look, I've been more conscious of texture, and I was particularly attracted to this blazer's texture.  The blazer is fully lined in a pretty pink fabric & a features a notched collar.  I've been trying on blazers everywhere I shop.

Scuba Elongated Pencil Skirt ($69.50) | shop - I like the material this is made out of; it's stretchy and form-fitting, but it is unlined.

Cable Cowl Neck Sweater ($89.50) | shop - I love that this dress has sleeves.  I just feel like a dress with sleeves is appropriate for most situations without a cardigan or another piece covering up the shoulders.  The cable knit is extremely thick and substantial, but it's also a bit itchy; if you love the style, I suggest layering a thin t-shirt or tank underneath it.

Micro Stripe Cascade Ruffle Long Sleeve Blouse ($49.50) | shop - I love the micro stripe on this top, and the ruffles give the perfect girly touch. 

Solid Sweater Dress in Black | shop - I'm wearing the Micro Stripe Blouse with  the Solid Sweater Skirt, which didn't really flatter my shape.  I did, however, see the sales associate rocking it, and she looked great in it!

Textural Wool Blouson Dress in Milkwhite ($79.99) | shop - The top half of this dress made me feel like a pirate. :)  Runs big.

P.S. Don't forget to check out Ann Taylor's animal print; Aili's a big fan of it.
