This blazer is one of my favorite thrift store finds. I've worn it so many times, I would have my cost- per-wear out of it had I spent 100s of dollars, yet I paid very little. The price isn't what makes it my favorite though, it's the perfect fit and structure. It always looks polished, never needs ironing, and always holds its shape. Gotta love that.

 

Hope you had a great weekend. We stayed in this weekend and took care of some household things and caught up on chores.  Sometimes you have to do that.

I last wore this blouse with all black. This time I mixed it up with a white blazer and striped pumps. I was going to throw a little print in with a leopard pendant necklace, but I could not find my necklace. I've since located it but I had to go with what I could find quickly to get out the door that day.

 

 Do you have those moments where you have planned an outfit in your head and then can't find the pieces?

 

If you are able to be off work to celebrate today, I hope you enjoy yourself, but let's all remember why we have this day. I'm grateful to those who sacrificed their lives for my freedom.

 

Have you been shopping the Nordstorm half yearly sale? I've ordered this striped knot tee in two colors. I'll let you know what I think when it gets here. See my under $25 and under $50 picks here.

I couldn't help but feel like I was skipping a whole season or holiday when I got dressed in this Saturday for an outing. I mean, it's Easter week and we are supposed to be loading up on florals and pastels, but I skipped right to summer with stripes and anchors. I have no shame. This outfit was comfortable and fit my activities.

 A cardigan over a print blouse+ trousers+ heels has become one of my favorite outfit formulas. It's a little more relaxed than a blazer, but still very office appropriate. This color combination of red, black and white is still one of my favorites too. See how I recently wore this cardigan with other black and white pieces here. And I love how these grey snakeskin heels give a little more contrast and interest than just plain black pumps.

 

Happy Friday!

The temps rise and I start feeling the need to dress more like spring. I kept it this outfit a little on the wintery side with the pants and cardigan, but added some color with the top. Even though I was a hot mess from running around in the wind all day, I really liked how this outfit turned out.

Just when I think I should ditch this blazer, I come up with yet one more way to wear it. Here are six other ways I've worn it. This time I paired it with these heathered navy blue pencil pants. This is one of my favorite outfits that I have come up with in a while. And there was no pinterest inspiration involved here. Just a look through the closet to see what might work with these pants.
