Maps. They don't love you like I love you.

Did you all know I absolutely love maps? I don't know what it is, but something about a beautiful map just resonates with me! Whether it be my map watch, my state charm necklace, or my entire Pinterest board dedicated to all things map-related, I just love 'em! So, when I saw these pants, I just about jumped for joy! Then, when I saw they were 50% off, I almost fainted! For half price (at Madewell?!) I snagged these bad boys and didn't look back! I can't wait to continue to showcase these babies!

P.S. Yay to my hair for finally being long enough to go up into a teeny-tiny topknot!

This outfit was the result of an averted wardrobe crisis. No joke. An outfit that I loved in my head, and even loved in the mirror, ended up looking terrible to me in photos! Everything just looked super awkward! So, I went upstairs, cried (haha), and brainstormed a solution! Then, once I threw on this trusty little pea coat (that I scored on eBay when I was in high school!), it all came together!

Truthfully, I love each piece of this outfit so much! The color of the sweater is beautiful, I finally got my navy cords hemmed, these wedge booties were a steal, I love these precious bracelets
 I received as a gift from one of my students, and this statement necklace is just gorgeous!

Have you ever had a mini wardrobe crisis?
