Grid pants

I was inspired by a Loft ad that came through my email to pair these pieces together. The ad showed a top this color with patterned black and white shorts. The shorts are really nothing like my pants, but I immediately thought of them.
 
Hope your having a great week so far!

Blues and greens

As noted yesterday, the weather just would not cooperate last week. Here's an outfit I came up with for work that I really liked. I love the blues and greens together.

pants-  Loft  option
shoes- Ann Klein  similar  option
scarf- thrifted option  option  option
 
 
Here's another look at what my outfit consists of:
blue and green

It's the same formula as yesterday- button down+cardigan+ pants+ scarf. You can create so many options with just a simple formula.

I added this mixed media moto jacket to my wardrobe during the holiday sales. I have far more opportunity to wear office attire than casual, so I paired it with this lace top and pencil pants for an office outfit. I started out the photos with the jacket zipped, but the top is too pretty to hide so I left it open. I think the jacket will work equally well with jeans off duty.
 
I was way past due a trip to the hair salon last week, so I twisted and pinned my bangs back just to get by one more day. Do you have any hair tricks for those last days when you really need to go to the salon for a cut and color? The twist helped hide the ridiculous grey streak I had down the middle.

Makin' a list, checkin' it twice... oh wait, that was last week. Christmas is over. I hope you had a great one and all your wishes came true.
 
I couldn't help it with the title. These checkered pants are just so much fun. These were a "for me" purchase while Christmas shopping. I've been wanting to add some more work appropriate slim leg pants to my wardrobe but I have a hard time finding them to fit. Slim or straight leg usually means slim all the way from the waist down and that's not going to work for this curvy girl.  I sized up a couple of sizes with these and was pleased with the results. They were on sale, so they were mine. 
 
I will try to photograph them better next time. I need to make some adjustments to the lens I've been using. I hope adjustments correct a focus problem with it. If not, I'll be looking for a new 50mm lens.

I've set up a new Pinterest account just for Savvy Southern Chic. I'd love it if you'd follow me. I'll be posting outfits there now. I've also taken the plunge into yet another time suck, I mean, social media outlet- Instagram. I'd love it if you followed me there too.

Blanket scarf as poncho

There are lots of ways to wear a blanket scarf. I wore this to church a few weeks ago and wore my blanket scarf as a wrap/poncho. It was cool but not cold enough to wrap this thing around my neck so this was an easy way to still add some punch to an outfit with a scarf without being too warm. I pretty much copied this whole look from Erin at The Fashion Canvas.

This triple layered necklace was a "me" gift while Christmas shopping this year during Black Friday sales. So selfish, but the sales are too good to pass up.

It's Christmas week! Are you ready? All the presents were wrapped as of last night, so now I'm just looking forward to a short work week, lots of food, family, and presents. I've got to pick up some groceries for the cooking we plan to do, but that's it.
