Denim jacket and a maxi/ Style Swap

This week  for Style Swap I chose to swap a look from Danielle at Goodwillista focusing on a denim jacket and maxi skirt.




It's pretty much a piece for piece copy except for the necklaces. I tried a little necklace layering and wore a cross necklace my sweet hubby gave me for Valentine's Day and a longer "wing" necklace.

I finally gave in and purchased a denim jacket with a gift card. At least two fashion magazines have said it's a must have spring piece. I've always hesitated because I don't think I'll get that much wear out of it, but I keep pinning looks with denim jackets, so I decided it was time to bite the bullet and go for it.

Pink and grey style swap

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.

Two pieces- two ways and style swap

It's Friday! Woo hoo! and that means another edition of Style Swap.  This week I chose to create my own version of Southern Curls and Pearls polka dot top and sweater outfit. I had previously pinned this with two pieces from my closet in mind. They are not the exact pieces she is wearing but close. My yellow sweater had not seen any love this year, and since we are itching for spring and I love navy and yellow, this was perfect.

I don't have any statement earrings but went for the bling in my necklace.
 
For a more casual look to wear to Wednesday night pot luck, I switched out the suit for jeans and booties. Yes, your work wardrobe can work for casual and weekends too.
 


Thanks for stopping by. I'll be linking up here:

Style Swap

                             Mix and Match Fashion              My version
 
Today I'm linking up with My New Favorite Outfit and Style Swap (details here). I chose to swap out a style from Tara at Mix and Match Fashion.  I had recently pinned this outfit from her blog with my skirt in mind. I don't have any window pane pants but I do have a fushia sweater, black blazer and this skirt. I also liked the pop of blue she added, so I did the same with my bubble necklace. I recently read that bubble necklaces were out, but I've seen a few of my favorite bloggers still wearing them, and as long as I'm comfortable, I will be too. I just couldn't skip the pop of color this adds just because bubble necklaces are "out".
