Black and white. So basic, but so chic. These colors have been featured at Fashion Week, in popular magazines and by celebrities on the red carpet. So when Marion from Marionberry Style chose B&W as this month's Trend of the Month, I knew I had to participate! Dress: Old Navy (B&W is sold out online, different color is available here) Boots: Target Necklace: Gift (Charming Charlie's) Blazer: Kohl's (on clearance!) This is already the second time I wore this dress. The first time I Read More
Tuxedo Tweed + Teal
I love this blazer. I got it at Loft recently during a weekend shopping trip and couldn't wait to wear it to work! I love that it doesn't have a button like most blazers but still hangs nicely over the bust area. I got it as part of my February clothing budget and although it was more than I like to spend on a single item, it is a very nice quality blazer that is built to last. I foresee it being a closet staple and I'm hoping to get a ton of use out of it. If I were to do a 30 for 30 Read More
Weekend Update
Happy Monday everyone! Hope you had a wonderful weekend! I woke up Saturday to a few inches of fresh snow outside and made my husband and I some Hungry Girl oatmeal to get us going! Afterwards, we decided to hit the mall. I don't head to the mall very often as I usually shop at the outlet mall since it's much closer to my house. Needless to say, I was excited to visit some stores that I haven't been to in a while! I was on the hunt for a blazer and found a couple cute ones at Loft. I just Read More
Chartreuse on the loose
Chartreuse. Super pretty color, but super tough to spell, right?! Anyways, this lovely chartreuse sweater is a recent addition to my closet, and it’s probably the brightest article of clothing I own at this point. I wore it with jeans before and loved the look, but wanted a way to wear this at work since I had to go a bit more dressy since for a Board of Directors meeting where I arranged out first press conference…eek! (Don’t worry- it ended up going well…we got a couple of great stories in Read More
Work that Blazer!
I don't know where the inspiration for this outfit came from (probably a mix of Pinterest and the super stylish bloggers I follow), but I LOVE this look! I think a large part of why I love it is because the skirt is one I would have only considered wearing in the summer, but with some layering/different accessories, it transitions into another season seamlessly! (I found that to be true of a tank top I recently wore as well!) Sarah of Simply Sarah touches upon this too, she just started a Read More
Off to work I go…
So here is a compilation of my outfits from a typical work week. I work in a business casual environment, but I always tend to dress up a little more (dress for the job you want, not the job you have, right?!) I really love skirts/dresses so I try to wear them as much as I can! Here's the recap: MONDAY Pants: New York and Co. Outlet Top: Old Navy Blazer: Old Navy (they also offer additional colors online only- the raspberry punch is super cute!) Necklace: Lia Sophia TUESDAY Skirt: Target Read More
