When I spotted a nautical striped blue sweater in H&M a few weeks ago, I had instant deja vu. I could picture the whale watch I wore a similar ensemble on about, oh, fifteen years ago? And I just couldn’t resist making the purchase for a little trip down memory lane…
Sweater, H&M
Necklace, J Crew
Jeans, American Eagle
Boots, Lauren Ralph Lauren
Watch, Guess
I think what’s sweetest about this all is that on those summer trips into the big city of Boston as a kid, I always used to say that I’d live here one day. And here I am, in an apartment just a few yards from where that very photo was first taken.
I guess some things never change.
