Style Swap: Dressing up a chambray shirt with a blazer and statement necklace
Inspiration: Lauren @ Fizz and Frosting I’ve been looking for fun ways to wear my chambray shirt since it hasn’t been getting remixed much since I bought it. For some reason, it seemed too casual to wear on its own at the office, so adding a statement necklace and a blazer really dressed it up. I added some colored denim and boots since it was casual Friday and love how it turned out! Shop the look- Blazer: Target Chambray: J. Crew Factory (polka dot version, dark wash, light Read More

Cognac Accents & Winter Must Haves
Inspiration photo: I do deClaire When I saw Laura’s outfit featuring lots of cozy layers, I knew I had to recreate it using items in my own closet given polar vortex #2 we are experiencing in Chicago. (Don’t worry, I do have pantyhose on, but the black tights or leggings would have been a much warmer choice!) Anything that involves tall boots, scarves and layers is a great option for winter in my book. I love the pops of cognac in the boots, belt and scarf. Plus, Read More
