Twisted Spring Sweater + Lessons from The Greatest Showman

sweater | tank bodysuit | skinny jeans | booties | sunnies | clutch (similar)

How adorable is this twisted sweater?  The pink color is so perfect for spring and it’s a great piece to have to transition to warmer weather!  It’s a lightweight material but so soft and the perfect amount of slouch.  I am in a medium, for reference.  It is also super cute paired with black leggings & sneakers for a casual athleisure look.  I also plan to wear it with some cut off shorts as it warms up a little more.

I am wearing it here with my favorite skinny jeans.  They are seriously the worlds most flattering jeans I think!! They go really well with this shorter cropped sweater because the high waisted jeans make your legs look a mile long.  Wear them with these $35 booties and you’re good to go!

One more thing, last weekend Craig & I finally went to see The Greatest Showman after hearing so many people rave about how amazing it was!  And they were RIGHT!!  I loved it.  I would pay money to see it in the theaters again, if that tells you how much I thought about it.  The cinematography was beautiful, the acting & singing were AMAZING, and I loved the music & choreographed scenes, but even more than that I loved the lessons it taught.   Without giving away any of the details about the movie so I don’t ruin anything, I will say that it touched a lot on being open minded, accepting people for who they are no matter what they look like, the color of their skin, their place in society, or any other of their differences from you, and seeing a person’s HEART above everything.  Not judging a book by it’s cover was certainly a theme in this movie that played out in a really beautiful way, I thought.  It reminds us that love can cross any boundary that humans and society have set because LOVE is bigger than any of those things.  It also, at it’s core, was about what is truly important in life.   I highly recommend that you go see it if you have a chance 🙂

Hope y’all have a nice evening!

xo,

Bess
