I Heart Lily Kai’s Vintage Boutique

I week ago, I told you beautiful ladies that I attended a Vintage Boutique by Lily Kai (Kristen Kai owner).  This is the scarf I purchased from her for $3.50.  Here are my many looks with this gorgeous multicolored silk scarf !!!

 
This is my day look; I am at the office.  I am wearing the fab scarf of course.  I’ve paired it with a green button down cardigan from Lane Bryant, dark blue Z. Cavaricci jeans from Torrid, a white button-down blouse from Target, and brown platform loafers by BCBG Girl from my shoe guy.

   
Here is a closer look at how I rocked the scarf.  I just tied it once around my neck and buttoned my sweater over top of it.  I thought that was a cute idea!
