This is a simple and relatively casual outfit for a typical day on campus – running from meeting to meeting with stops at the library, the coffee shop, and a quick lunch with colleagues.  It’s been a bit cooler here these past few days and I am loving it.  I grabbed my casual day staple, my denim skirt, and a simple sweater and then accessorized with statement earnings, my favorite flats, and this beautiful bamboo scarf from TDM Designs.

I was feeling a bit guilty about trying to get away with these earrings as my use of florals for today so I posed in front of my lovely lilac bush to try and distract you, but they are cool floral earrings right?

The real focus of this outfit is the beautiful tie-die bamboo scarf sent to me from TDM Designs.  We have all taken our turn at gushing over Nepali scarves, but I have to say I am yet again in love!  The color of this scarf is even more lovely in person and I think the tie-die pattern is the perfect sophisticated variation of the Spring trend.  As E. mentioned just last week when she premiered her tie-die bamboo, we love supporting TDM Designs and particularly their Nepali scarfs because of their impressive business practices.

I have a feeling I’ll be getting quite a bit of use out of this piece in the next few weeks.  I promise another real attempt at florals is coming soon, but for now I think incorporating tie-die is commendable.
