oversized checkered blanket scarf (sold out, really similar here and here)

MAC lipstick in “crosswires” with Smashbox “azalea” gloss on top
How do you like the title of my post?! Haha! I couldn’t think of anything better, and I seriously DO think this scarf is one of the cutest blanket scarves out there. It came in the mail yesterday morning and I immediately switched my outfit to match the scarf. I am crazy obsessed with it! The funny thing is that when it’s unfolded it looks exactly like a fleece blanket… but that just makes it all the better (and more cozy). I love that it’s black and white because those colors go with everything. (Check out my blanket scarf tutorial if you are unsure how to tie one like this!)
UPDATE: The scarf is sold out but there I found similar ones here and here!

I don’t know why I am telling y’all this but the lipstick I’m wearing in this post (MAC crosswires) was the first tube of lipstick I ever bought in my whole life – and I was a senior in college! I remember going to the mall in search of a coral lipstick because I was heading to Mexico for Spring Break the next week. (Who knows why I wanted a coral one?!) Oh how far I’ve come in a few years, haha… now I own somewhere between fifteen and twenty different colors! I used to hate wearing lipstick but now I feel naked without it! Anyways, this specific color has always been a favorite because it was my first one 🙂
Hope everyone has a great Wednesday!

That scarf really is flippin' adorable!! I know what you mean about the lipstick, too. I used to never really wear bold color on my lips…then I worked with an older, southern woman who reapplied her lipstick between every few customers. She told me one day I would benefit from some color on mine because I look a little washed out. Advice I've never forgotten. And now, my favorite color to wear is wine! 🙂
I love that scarf! Such a great look!

Love the scarf! It looks very cozy. I can completely relate to needing to wear lipstick. I only recently became obsessed with it and now I have to buy a new lipstick at least once a month.

Hi Caitlin! I am obsessed with your blog, its a constant inspiration up here in dreary, frigid Chicago! Question: do you have any tips for how to keep your lipstick looking great all day? Even my higher end lipsticks still need several re-applications throughout the day/night. Thank you!
Hey Rachel! Unfortunately, I don't have a trick for making lipstick last all day (I wish I did!) because mine always fades after eating lunch or after four to five hours. I think making sure your lips are exfoliated and moisturized helps, and wearing a gloss on top seems to keep the color lasting a little longer. 🙂
I'm in love with this sweater and have seen you wear different versions multiple times. I am having a hard time paying $68 for it. Do you know of one that's similar that is a little cheaper?? Even like $40-$50??
Hey Sydnie! I know $68 does seem like a lot for a sweater, so if you're looking for a similar but less expensive one, I would try Forever21! I have found some really amazing, high quality pieces there for cheap. I like to look in the store so that I can try things on and feel the material in person. I bet they would have some really similar sweaters to this one! Hope that helps!
oh my goodness that scarf! beautiful!

Oh my goodness, I totally remember my first MAC lipstick too and the whole experience of it 😀 Mine was coral and I also feel naked without lipstick on. I remember putting mine on and feeling like I looked SO different, now I can't go without a lip product on, haha!
LOVE your blanket scarf, and always laugh at the thought of your mister calling it that!

That scarf is seriously so freaking cute. Also I feel ya on the lipstick thing. I bought a red on my 22 bday and now I own way more than I could ever need. My friends make fun of me and say I have a serious addiction.
