Mustard print skirt - four ways

This skirt is no longer available. I picked it up last season, but still love it. You may be intimidated by a pattern like this, but you can pretty much treat this one like a solid mustard skirt and pair it with a variety of tops. I was inspired by a pin I saw to pair it with cobalt. It was actually cool enough for my tall boots last weekend (at least with a skirt), so I pulled them out.
 
 
Here are the ways I wore this skirt last year:  here/ here/ and here

Saturday shopping: blanket scarves

Blanket scarves have been an item for a couple of years, but it seems like everybody is talking about them this season. They are more on trend than ever. If you're shopping for a blanket scarf, they can run the gamut in sizes and prices. Most of them come in a plaid pattern, but there's nothing wrong with that. Here are my picks:




Express is killin' it with their reversible plaid and houndstooth blanket scarf.  Shop at Express through ebates and get 2.5% back.  I also love the pink and olive plaid scarf.


There are so many ways to tie a blanket scarf, but you can achieve many of the same looks with an oversized scarf. So if a full on blanket scarf is not your thing, check out these options:





Happy Shopping!

Boyfriends and a blazer





Blazer- Dorothy Perkins (old)  option  option  option
boyfriend jeans- Loft  option  option  option
purse- Nine West via TJMaxx  option  option
shoes- Ross  option  option
necklace- JCP  option  option  option
 
There's something so chic about jeans and a blazer and with boyfriend jeans and a blazer it's comfy chic. I sometimes wish I had a different job because I would rock this look more often. But... no jeans at work for me and by the time the weekend comes, the blazers need a break. 
 
This was one of the GYPO fall challenge outfits. I was pleased at how this turned out with the camel blazer and gold flats. This knit blazer is the perfect match for jeans.

Just rosy



 
Top- Maurices  option  option  option
cardigan- Maurices  option  option  option
shoes- Payless  option 
earrings - Cato option  option
 
You may remember this scarf and tunic from my tone on tone post. This time I'm paring the rose blush tunic with olive leggings, or shall we say jeggings. These pants come up under "jeans" and have pockets. The front even has a cool moto flair with zippered pockets, but the labeling for these pants says "leggings" and they fit like leggings. I will be keeping my bum covered when wearing these.

I love olive, or sage green, but if it's too masculine or earthy for you, trying pairing it like this with a soft feminine color like blush.

The cardigan

shoes- Belks/ Ann Klein  option  option 
necklace- gift  option  option
worn Oct. 9, 2015
 
This cardigan has been an under utilized item in my closet, but I have taken a renewed interest in cardigans this season, so I'm determined to wear this one. I already love grey and mustard together, so why not throw in navy.
 
Once again inspiration was taken from Bridgette Raes and this mix and match style post. (third set down) This was a very comfy outfit for the office but I still felt polished. Feeling good in your clothes is as important as how you look. I don't mean feeling "yoga pants comfortable" all the time, but you should have confidence in what you wear.
