Work to weekend: Two pieces two ways

Good morning. Hope your week is going well so far. Today I'm showing you how I wore a sweater and neck scarf for work and play.

Work to Play- One piece two ways

 

 

I did a post a while back on how to wear two pieces two ways- work and play.    I decided to do a similar post with these outfits. Both outfits feature the same striped sailor sweater. This sweater works well for work with a pencil skirt and blazer. (I've also worn it HERE with plaid pants and a blazer.)

Floral top and white jeans

Burgundy boots take two

jeans- Loft

booties- Nordstrom option  option

Yes, I wore these booties two days in a row. I loved the results I got pairing them against the white and with this red plaid. I could make this a daily fall uniform if only I could wear this to work.

See four more ways to wear this plaid shirt HERE.

Speaking of work, I worked late and brought home more work to do so I'm cutting this post short. Thanks for following and I always appreciate your sweet comments.

White jeans for fall

White jeans are totally acceptable after Labor Day now. Taking white jeans into fall is easily done by pairing them with neutral colors. I'm pairing mine with this Old Navy tee that I raved about in this post. This is my fall formula- jeans+tee+booties. It's still too warm for much else, but at least it's cool enough for jeans most evenings.

Summer essentials

necklace- online boutique  option  option

earrings- Tuesday Morning

clutch- Target (old)  option  option

 

Summer essentials- white jeans, or shorts, or crops if you live anywhere near me. It's gotten too hot for these jeans, unless I'm going to be indoors most of the time. Another summer essential should be the off shoulder or cold shoulder top. I think this trend will be around a couple of years at least. I first debuted this top with wide leg linen pants and now I'm pairing it with white jeans. I love the contrast of my darker blue wedge sandals. Add those the summer essential list- a good pair of espadrille wedges.

 

Currently I'm... playing? I'm "playing" catchup with my scrapbooks. I don't play video games or even board games all that often, but the college age kids in the Sunday School class we teach are totally into Pokémon Go. The front of our church is even a stop for catching one. What are you currently playing? Are you into the pokemon craze or any gaming?

A little off

I searched for a bit for an embroidered top. It was on my "summer must have" list, but  I wanted sleeves. I finally found this split sleeve embroidered tunic and decided this was the one. I love how it pairs well with my new denim/navy wedges but I was disappointed when I realized it wasn't a true white. I really wanted a white on white look, but it wasn't until I got out in the natural daylight that I realized this is a little on the ivory side. Oh well... I still like the top and it will go well with blue denim or red bottoms.

 

Have you ever envisioned an outfit that turned out a little off when you finally put it together?

Our little cold snap gave me a chance to wear this faux fur scarf I picked up after Christmas from Banana Republic, or should I say ordered online. I live nowhere close enough to "pick up" anything. Thank goodness for the mail, Fed Ex and UPS, even though I sometimes curse them for damaging my stuff.

 

I was inspired by Glistening Ambition to wear these pieces together. Her cardigan has fur attached, but it was still inspiration enough to layer my scarf with my cardigan.
