This outfit is very similar to this one. It's the same two base pieces- navy blazer and camel pants. However, the shoes, blouse and accessories are different. I used an oxblood top and mustard bag to bring in more fall colors. I went with leopard flats. Leopard really goes with anything but I love it with fall colors best. Speaking of the flats- I have a love/hate relationship with flats. If they are dressy enough for work, then they usually don't look right with casual clothes. On the other hand, if like these, they work with casual, then they don't work with business attire. These ballet flats are a little more interesting than some, but after seeing these photos, I don't think they work with this outfit.

 

Anyone have any suggestions on a flat shoe that is more versatile?

What's more comfortable for running errands on a Sunday afternoon that boyfriend jeans and a cozy lightweight  sweater?  Maybe your pajamas or sweats or workout clothes, but folks, that's not an outfit. It really bugs me to see women in the grocery store in work out clothes when they obviously haven't worked out in a couple of years and they are not on their way to or from the gym. Regardless of your size, there are better ways to dress yourself.  Rant over.

 

 I almost returned this sweater because it's slightly oversized with a curved hem and I really need one that's more professional so I can wear it to work and get more wear out of it. But this one was so comfy, I decided to keep it.

The only difference in this outfit and this one is the pants. I almost didn't post this, but I really do like the olive and orange combination, so I had to share it. Do you have outfits where you change only one thing, but feel like it's so different?

 

How was your weekend? I'm on a candy hangover. I'm going to have to hit the pavement hard and put in some miles to run those calories off. I really should just pick one lucky kid at the end of the night and give all the leftovers to that one, ha. The parents would love me.

Saturday shopping

I'm having a moment for cardigans right now. Soft and cozy, they are the perfect fall layer. In particular, I've got some waterfall or drapey open front cardigans on my radar. Here are a few of my picks:

You can get the Ann Taylor mesh stitch cardigan for 50% off right now. That's a great deal!

Happy Shopping!

And Happy Halloween!

We got tempted with fall and then the high 80 temps came back. Ugh! So this is the best I can do to still feel like it's fall. I wore this outfit  to church Sunday and then to the funeral of a 32 year old woman who passed away that week. Her death was an utter tragedy and her family needs lots of prayers.

 

I feel like I've had lots of items on repeat lately. The mustard crossbody was on repeat for a week and now you are seeing these marsala shoes two days in a row. I do that sometimes. I get fixed on one color or item and it gets worn out until the next item gets my attention. Do you go through this?

 

Happy Halloween! Do you dress up? We do, always in spooky or scary attire, with lots of other roles players and hand out lots of candy. Candy is hard earned at our house, but it's so much fun! Here are a couple of peeks back at prior Halloweens:
