Blazers, boots and books.




Dynamite blazer; Joe Fresh top; Forever 21 necklace; American Eagle pants

Generally, I like reading. Except when I come across a book that I just can't get into. I'm currently reading The Casual Vacancy by J.K. Rowling and it's been taking forever to finish. I think I'm on page 130 of 4 bazillion. Well not quite that, but you get the point. I just can't get into it. I have all these other books on my shelf begging to be read and I refuse to pick up another until this one's finished.

Has anyone else read/attempted to read The Casual Vacancy? Did you like it? Anyone else have the same problem I'm having?!

On another note, I never wear this pink shirt. It's a fun pop of colour. I should wear it more. Also this blazer. And I luuuurve these boots. K done now.

  2. I have a few books I just can't get into. I keep trying to finish them but it gets to a point where I'll just put it down and move on. Casual Vacancy is on my list to read. You'll have to give us your full review when you're done! Also that teal/green blazer is beautiful!

  4. I'm one of those people that if I can't get into a book, I'll just give up on it and move on to another book.

    I love the fun colors int his outfit!

    1. Yeah, I would give up and move on, except I really want to give this one a chance. Plus it's big and was $$ so I want to get my money's worth ;)

  5. I was such a fan of J.K. Rowling thanks to the HP series, but I've yet to pick up her newest. I wish I had more time to read, otherwise, I probably would have already! Glad that you still make time to read!

    Adorable outfit, as well! I love the teal and bright coral color combination. It's definitely a fun way to dress up a classic blazer!

    1. Exactly - that's why I figured I'd give it a shot. Finally being out of school, I've regained my love of reading, but it sucks when I come across something hard to finish!

  6. I went for the blazer look today too! Made me feel presidential while I went to the polls haha Also, I've tried The Casual Vacancy...but I had to stop. I had not finishing, but there are just some you cannot get in to. Good luck!

    1. Heheh blazers rock! And I'm glad I'm not the only one unable to get through it quickly. I'm going to try again though!

  7. I love this blazer! the color is just perfect.

    I loved the HP series, but I know absolutely nothing about the Casual Vacancy book. What is it even about? I just don't want to set myself up for disappointment because Harry Potter is hard to top. If you don't enjoy it, then go on and read something else! I had the hardest time making myself stop reading books I didn't care about just because I was determined to finish what I started, but it's just not worth it when there are so many other good books out there that need to be read! :)

  8. Love the colour of your blazer!
    While I haven't read the Casual Vacancy, I was having the exact same problem with the last book I was reading. It was taking for-e-ver to get through. FInally around page 400 (of 600) I gave up - I just don't care anymore! My new motto is: Life's too short for boring books! Hope you find a better read soon!

  9. Pretty in pink and that blazer is beautiful, I love the white on the sleeves. The book I'm reading is taking forever to read, not because I don't enjoy it but because I never set time aside for it.
