Back to the grind after a wonderful weekend

I hope everyone had a wonderful Memorial Day Weekend. The BF and I spent a whirlwind 24 hours in DC and had a great time. Our suite at the Fairfax on Embassy Row was pretty (I'd say it juuuuust barely hits the luxury mark), and the location was beautiful. We spent much of our time just walking the streets near Dupont Circle and looking at embassies. We found a frozen yogurt place we loved so much that we went Saturday night AND Sunday afternoon before we left. It's called Mr. Yogato. I highly recommend it if you're in the area. It's a little hole in the wall, but it's really cool and the yogurt is to die for. We also ate at Cafe Green on Sunday afternoon. Very interesting vegan menu. I had raw flaxseed pancakes with agave and strawberries just to try something new. Here's a pic:
The flaxseed was not really my thing. The BF, however, got whole wheat waffles with strawberries, and those were amazing. Saturday night we went out for sushi, and I wore the Frankie with the Fiore cardigan. I know I posted a pic of it before, but here it is styled:
Last but not least, here's the outfit for the day.

J.Crew Jackie cardigan in White, size small - $62
Crewlet white and coral striped tank, size small - $14.95
Flip flops that are a few years old - can't remember where I got them
Crewlet seahorse necklace - around $22-$25
I had a little bit of success at the crewlet on Friday afternoon...I'll post a total item list with pics and prices later this week when I have more time. I got the tank and cute seahorse necklace there, though.
I LOVE this necklace and have been wearing it almost nonstop since I got it on Friday. I also purchased a gold sanddollar necklace and have sometimes been wearing the two together. I'm a big fan of ocean-themed stuff, so I'm of course going to be a sucker for a blinged-out seahorse!
Have a great day, everyone!
