After getting your feedback on whether to wear these shoes or a more classic peep toe with my bridesmaids dress, it was clear that classic was the way to go. (That said, I think I might wear these for the reception because they are so dang fun!) In the meantime, I busted out these shoes with another outfit. Talk about fancy feet! This is probably the first “open toed” shoe I’ve worn this year to work…sad right? I know Bri declared today’s Third Thursday Threads to be sandals, but I’m Read More
Three Things Wednesday
Happy Wednesday! First off, here’s a couple outfits for you, Instagram style. Because clearly all selfies look better with this app: Navy blazer, pink lace top, jeans Red cardigan, red textured tank, striped skirt, black tights and heels/boots 1. My point and shoot camera has been on its last leg for a long time. I’ve been researching DSLR cameras and getting feedback from friends & family for a while and finally upgraded with the Canon Rebel T3i! I just ordered a remote on Read More
Cargo Jacket Remix
I picked up this adorable cargo jacket at a local consignment store and have been remixing it ever since. I love the feminine lace collar and the cinched waist! (I had another cargo jacket before I found this gem, and I also remixed it 7 different ways. Read it here.) Shop the look (cargo jackets): Macy’s | H&M | L.L. Bean | Banana Republic | Old Navy | Old Navy A semi casual look with maroon pants (Loft) and a lace top (BR Outlet). Fun yet professional look for the Read More
On Valentine’s Day, we wear pink.
Shop the look- Blazer: Target Tank: Target Skirt: JC Penney Heels: DSW (similar) Earrings: Ann Taylor I like to get festive every now and then and dress for the holiday. And this outfit has just a hint of V-Day flair for the office. Speaking of Valentine’s Day plans, the hubs got us tickets to see a hockey game in Milwaukee! It’s my first hockey game and he got us seats right on the glass at the middle of the rink, so I can “truly experience hockey at its finest.” Nothing says romance Read More
Co-hosting: Tres-Chic Fashion Thursday
I prefer skirts and dresses over pants any day. And this outfit is no exception. This black and white skirt from JC Penney is sophisticated and stylish and can be dressed up or down. In my case, I added an army jacket over it to make the look a bit more relaxed, but still office appropriate. Both the skirt and jacket are so remixable (case in point) and are honestly my two favorite items of clothing right now! I’ve owned two different army/cargo jackets from Old Navy and Kohl’s, but the Read More
What I Wore to Work #10: Bold Colors
TGIW! Today is like Friday because of the Thanksgiving Holiday- woo hoo! I will be spending time with family (including celebrating my Dad’s birthday), doing some Black Friday shopping, running/hiking and getting some projects done around the house! It will definitely be a fun-filled few days- let’s just hope the weather cooperates! PS- Check out my fancy new social media buttons on the right sidebar and follow me! (And thanks to the hubs for helping me out with Read More
Peplum + Stripes
Ok I admit it. I jumped on the peplum train. But when I tried this on in the fitting room, I was pleasantly surprised at how well it fit! I did wear a cami under this since I felt like the top was a little sheer, but I like the fit without the cami so I will have to try it again without and stand under some fluorescent lights to make sure it "passes the test." Plus, tucking the cami in makes the skirt gather a bit and raises them hemline, as you can see in the photo. At the outlet, they Read More
