Olive and Blue Take Two

Back in May I shared this Olive and Blue top in THIS POST and said because of the color, I could see it working well in the fall too as a layering piece.  Well little did I know then that we would be experiencing cool and chilly weather in August!  Now, in late September, we are finally getting hot August temperatures in Wisconsin, go figure.  But on the day these pictures were taken, August 13,  it was cool and rainy so I styled my top with a utility jacket and jeans.


The utility jacket is from Stitch Fix (old).  Even though it's not rain proof, it's one of my favorite pieces to wear on rainy days because of the hood.  I wouldn't wear it in pouring rain, but it works very well for drizzly, overcast days.


 I love the drawstring waist and hem, to tighten up the jacket.  I also like the option of having a shorter sleeve length because of the tabs.


Shoes are by Steve Madden.



For jewelry I just wore a bracelet.  I carried a burgundy bag that I picked up last year from JCPenney.    I'm happy to see burgundy is still trending this fall.  I love how this color goes with anything!


The top comes in three different colors and is still available HERE.



Have a Great Day!  Amy

  1. So right, the top is going to be so pretty for autumn use too. And how your hair has lightened beautifully with all your summer gardening. Hugs, x.

    1. Thank you! As for the hair, although I'm sure the summer sun lightened it a bit, I do have professional highlights put in too!

  2. Love this look, yes the top is perfect for warm/hot fall days (it's in the 90's here this week!!) and the burgundy purse is definitely a perfect color for fall.
    Love the jacket!

  3. I have a similar utility jacket from Nordstrom, but it doesn't have a hood. Altho, my utility vest DOES have a hood! Lol! I wish it was the opposite. These colors work so well together and oh do I love those wedges you have on!

    1. Thanks Whitney. I actually stopped Stitch Fix because I didn't feel what I was getting was worth the money they were asking for it. But I did get a few things from Stitch Fix that were worth it, and this jacket was one of them.
