These photos aren't the best in the world because it was almost too dark to take photos. I've yet to adapt to the time change, as far as getting photos taken goes. I just can't seem to squeeze out a few extra minutes in the mornings. 

 

I've already paired this blouse with purple and with teal. This time I'm going with the cobalt. I'm going to work through the spectrum of colors and get the most use out of this blouse possible. I love a piece that gives so many possibilities.

I really want to wear fall clothes but sometimes they just don't fit into a business attire wardrobe. The weather hasn't been cooperating the last couple of weeks either. So I dress for work and the temperature. Sometimes I push the envelope with the conservative environment I'm in by wearing things like this blingy bauble statement necklace. It's fun but the rest of the outfit is fairly conservative. To keep things from getting boring I'm going with color. Not exactly a fall outfit, but I was dressed for work. Once again, I took inspiration from Bridgette Raes for putting these colors together. (see outfit 3 in her post.)

Repeating and 6 ways to wear a cobalt blazer

necklace- gift  option

I've worn cobalt, black and white before, so I'm pretty much repeating an outfit here, just different blouse and shoes. If it ain't broke, don't fix it. This works for me, so why change it? Sometimes I just need to get dressed and not reinvent the wheel with each outfit.

Last year I shared 6 ways to wear a cobalt blazer.  Apparently this item is a favorite of mine. Here are 6 more ways to wear a cobalt blazer.

1/ 2/ 3/ 4/  5/   6/

And I almost forgot, you can throw it on over a white dress:

 

or wear it this way

 

 

whew! That's 8 more ways total.

Hope you had a great weekend and have a great week ahead.

A cobalt blazer is a must have. If you are looking for something with a little more interest than a standard navy blazer and still want to fit into a conservation work environment, the cobalt blazer is the perfect option. I have worn this one multiple times and reach for it over and over again. The color has remained popular season to season, and I have a feeling it's going to get paired with olive this fall.  Another fun option for your work attire is a green pencil skirt. You don't have to go all out in color. Pair it with a white button up and more neutral blazer, or leave the blazer off and go with leopard accessories, as shown here.

 

This combination should have been obvious but it took me a while to realize this blouse goes perfectly with the skirt. Oh how I love remixing my closet.

 

Have a great weekend!

It stormed almost every evening last week. I was in a race with a storm to get these photos taken. It definitely shows in the lighting.

 

This cobalt blazer was one of the pieces I missed during my spring capsule experiment. It's definitely a keeper in my closet. You know if you miss wearing something, then you must love it. The trick is not to overwear it. That was the good thing about the capsule. Some neglected items got some attention and I found some things that I probably should get rid of because they didn't even get much attention during the capsule.

Camel, cobalt, and plaid

worn Nov. 18, 2014

So many of my favorite things here- cobalt, plaid- which one do we talk about? I love that these pants are plaid but still subtle enough for work. I also love that they coordinate with camel and cobalt. Camel and cobalt is one of my favorite fall/ winter color pairings.

Have you jumped straight into winter? The temps dipped pretty low here last week (well low for South Georgia) but today is back around 70. I don't think I can remember it being this cold before Thanksgiving. I do remember wearing short sleeves on Thanksgiving in years past. The seasons here are so unpredictable. I wish it would stay cold for a while. I struggle with business attire for the winter, but I think layering a blazer over a sweater like this outfit works for me. It will be a "go to" formula when we do hit a permanent cold spell.

Worn August 1, 2014

 

Everyone should have a little white dress in their closet. It's the summer version of the LBD, just cooler. I purchased this cotton eyelet dress last summer on clearance and could not let this summer pass without wearing it. I started out with a blazer because I was copying this look and because I try not to show too much skin for church, but it was extremely hot in there this week, so I had to ditch the blazer.
