Mint







Blazer- Ross
shirt- Sears
pants/shoes- Belks
necklace JCrew Factory
Worn March 19, 2014


Even though the temperatures didn't say spring, I forged ahead and added a touch of spring to my wardrobe with a mint blouse last week. Slowly, slowly, we are getting there.  I also picked up this necklace at a great price last month and I'm looking forward to wearing it again with my mint and lavendar items.

Stripes and a pop of color



 
Jacket- Dress Barn similar similar
shirt- Banana Republic similar
pants- JCPenney
shoes- TJMaxx
necklace/bracelet- JCPenney
Worn Feb. 19, 2014

I didn't get this post up this morning but I did manage to get in a mile and a half run plus half mile walk, iron my clothes (that should have been ironed last night), make breakfast, and throw some chicken in a crock pot before heading to a dentist appointment and then work. That counts for something, doesn't it?

It was nearing dark when I took these pics last week, so I don't think they do this outfit justice. It's just basics paired together, but it was comfortable and still professional. I added a little color with the accessories.

Pink and grey style swap

 
Left: Kacie's Kloset  Right: My Version
 
I wore this last week to work on Valentine's Day but held back posting it until today so I could share it for Style Swap since it's a spin on Kacie's outfit. I had recently pinned her outfit when I was looking for inspiration and deciding whether or not to keep this gray blazer. It ended up being a great way to wear pink on Valentine's Day too. I even did a cheesy copy of her pose,lol.
 
I read in People Style Watch that bucket bags were coming back, so I took my ruffled bag out of the closet and have been sporting it this week too.

Comfy light layers



 
Cardigan- JCPenney
long sleeve tshirt- JCPenney
jeans- Levis
scarf- Target
shoes- Old Navy
worn Feb. 2, 2014
 
I usually dress up for church, but some days I just don't feel like it. Sunday was one of those days where I just wanted to be comfortable. The temperature shift left me clueless about what to wear. I knew I needed light layers because it would be warm in the afternoon. So, I popped over to my pinterest style board and saw this pin. It was one of those aha moments where I realize I have similar items in my closet and they are so simple I would have totally overlooked wearing them together. Done. Dressed.

Stripes and sunshine




Sweater- Forever21 option option;
pants- JCPenney
necklace/earrings- ??? option option
shoes- Belks
Worn Jan. 27, 2014
 
I normally wear this sweater with more navy or red, so I decided it was time to mix it up with grey and a pop of yellow. Temps went into the 70s Monday before the "storm" arrived this week so it was nice to have a little sunshine before all the cold and grey.
 
I'm having a brain freeze from all the cold and I can't remember wear I got this necklace. It was either at Belk or JCPenney (it's not like we have a large choice of stores here).

A pop of blue




Jacket- Tuesday Morning similar similar; sweater- JCPenney similar
pants- Gap similar; booties- TJMaxx
scarf- Target option
Worn Jan 8, 2014

This has become standard uniform for the cold weather. A suit or blazer and a scarf. One or the other or the blouse fills the pop of color. Just because it's cold and or raining and grey outside does not mean my world inside has to be. So add a pop of color.

Leopard, black and grey






Jacket- thrifted option; shirt- Sears
pants- Gap; shoes- DSW option
belt- Target
earrings- gift
Worn Dec. 20. 2013
I took a cue from J's Everyday Fashion in creating this outfit in leopard, black and grey stripes. I am wearing dress pants instead of jeans because jeans aren't allowed at work. That's the beauty of "inspiration" outfits- take it and make it your own by switching out pieces.

Coral, grey and brown is a color combination I would not have thought of without inspiration. Here's what I was working with:
 
 
 
I have a skirt and another blouse that would  more closely match this pin but I wanted to wear the shirt I'm wearing. I also needed a jacket for work so I added the lighter grey tweed.

I've posted this outfit before, almost identical to the way I'm wearing it now. I do repeat outfits.  I changed the accessories and shoes this time. Sometimes repitition is the easiest way to get out the door.

Red and grey

I love red and grey together, so I was pretty excited to put this outfit together. I'm also glad I kept this skirt. It has been in and out of the donate pile so many times. It looks much better on now 15 pounds lighter so I'm glad I kept it. I can wear it through the fall and winter with tights and boots. I've been saying that for the past couple of years, but it might just happen this year now that I'm more comfortable in it.

Mustard and gray

pants- Belk's; shoes- Target

Is it "gray" or "grey"? You decide. More important to me is that I'm posting a second time this week. And I love this color combination. I bought this blouse last fall. Of course it didn't get enough wear, but it will definitely go back in the rotation this fall.
 
Have a lovely weekend.
