Friday's Fancies: Team Spirit

I started this post yesterday and well, it pained me to finish it this morning. So, I'm just pretending the Badgers didn't lose yesterday- no biggie. For this week's Fridays Fancies {av} wanted us to focus on the NCAA tournament and create an outfit around our favorite team. I've told you of my love for Wisconsin sports before so it should come as no surprise that I chose an outfit comprised of red & white.

Game days in Madison are like nothing I've ever experienced before (I know, everyone says that about their school) but I've been to several other universities and although I am in fact 100% biased, I still believe Madison students do game days the best. I passed down my beloved bibs to a younger girl in my sorority before I graduated and sometimes I wish I still had those babies:

{RIP beloved overalls}

Anyways, now that I am a mature responsible adult (sometimes) I decided to go with a look that is actually socially acceptable to wear. I am on the hunt for a new pair of white jeans and am a firm believer you can wear them year round (no waiting for Memorial Day for me). I paired the white denim with a bright red top, a mint necklace, and wedges I am dying to purchase from Zara:

I feel like I've been celebrating my  birthday for 6 months at this point and I am sure you all are done hearing about it. However, tonight I have one (final) celebration with my college roommates and then a weekend of nothing- which is awesome considering I got three hours of sleep last night and I think I may take a nap under my desk. I hope you all have an amazing weekend!

And as always, stop by Long Distance Loving for more game day inspiration!

  7. So cute - I am so jealous that you came up with something as fun as this! UMD wasn't even close to the action this year, so I'm jealous that you got to make an outfit this adorable!

    Hope your weekend was fabulous!
