I love the sheer sleeves of this Nasty Gal top. I loved it so much that I spent about a week stressing over whether I should buy it. I finally ordered it, and of course, the next day everything on the Nasty Gal website was 30% off! Don’t you hate when that happens? If my indecisiveness would have pulled through for one more day, I could have ordered my dream shirt at a hefty discount. Oh well, I’ve moved on.
Luckily the shirt arrived right before I left for Cleveland last weekend. Who knew there was a Nasty Gal warehouse down the road in Kentucky? Talk about dangerous and convenient. Of course, I had to pack this for Cleveland, since I’m one of those people who has to wear my new things as soon as possible. I told myself that I’d be able to brave the cold weather in order for a cute outfit, but I was so so wrong. I wore this outfit for a solid two hours until I got ahold of my boyfriend’s Patagonia. If you aren’t familiar with Patagonia jackets, they are the most comfortable and warm jackets ever created. I have a black one that I live in from November-March. Surprisingly, the oversized brown jacket, leather pants, and booties look actually didn’t look half bad (in my mind, at least). It was also a lot more forgiving than a half sheer crop top is after a long weekend of cocktails and brunching.
The takeaway: when visiting Cleveland in the fall and winter, choose warmth over crop tops.

Adorable!! That blouse is worth every penny 😉
Thanks, Christy!!
LOVE this Olivia! So chic and the mixing of black and brown is great! Side note: my mom always used to tell me that beauty was pain and so I too am guilty of learning the hard way when it comes to cold weather! lol Lasting two hours is totally worth it in my book! lol
Thanks, Rochelle! Haha you always want to look cute, but once you step outside you immediately regret your decision to not dress warmer!
Great outfit. Love the brown boots with the black pants.
Thank you!
That’s always how it works out for me too, within a day they run a promo, argh! The top is gorgeous though and definitely a justified purchase:)
