Today is the third and final day of “Two Pieces, Two Places: A Chicago City and Suburbs Remix.” On Monday, we started with both the snakeskin top and maroon pants, yesterday was devoted to just the snakeskin top and today’s look features just the maroon pants.
Today’s looks highlight our maroon/burgundy pants from The Loft. First of all, I give Erin huge props because she doesn’t even look cold and she is posing outside in the Windy City. On a rooftop. In the snow. Incredible!
Anyways, I love how she layered a striped cardigan with a royal blue blouse. I never would have thought of this color combination! It works so well doesn’t it?!
I also decided to do some layering, but stuck with more of a monochromatic look with a sheer blouse that had a bit of texture to it. I layered a cocoon sweater and belted it to define the waist a bit more. Layering is essential in these cold, Chicago winters!
Be sure to check out all the details of Erin’s look over at Loop Looks! Thanks to Erin for collaborating with me on this fun remix! I hope we can do it again soon and remix some other items for you!

I love this outfit! The blouse is cute, and really brings out the color in the pants. And I like how you’ve made a cocoon sweater look office appropriate.
Love it Valerie!!!! The bow belt is perfect!!! I love my burgundy jeggings!!!!!

Let’s just leave out the part about how I had to walk through like a foot of snow to find that one clear spot and almost fell on my butt :-) Ah, the things we do for a photograph.
Visiting from the Random Wednesday Link-up! I love your look and layering is totally necessary right now! I’m missing out on work today because of an ice storm! That sweater looks perfect for a snowy day.

I love this remix and I love that you both have maroon pants! And Erin definitely doesn’t look cold – so impressive!
That bow belt is just too cute! What a great work outfit!
I enjoyed getting inspiration from you two on these posts! I have a pair of maroon pants that I love as well, and I’m always looking for new ways to style them. I haven’t tried them with navy yet, like Erin did, and I am loving how they look with camel and gray like you did, Valerie!
Yayyy! So glad you are inspired by this- that makes my day!
