I paired my rose quartz blazer with a mix of brights and pastels. I liked this better than I thought I would. I didn't think I'd really like it with black pants, but I was throwing this together at the last minute and just went with it. Sometimes getting dressed is a combination of what's clean and needs the least ironing. Anyone else have those days?

I've worn this blazer and these pants together now with several combinations of blouses and accessories. Maybe it's time for a "ways to wear" post. Do you guys like those? Seeing the same piece worn many ways in a post? It's been a while since I've done one of those.

 

I had almost decided I didn't like this blouse anymore but I've had renewed interest in it this spring. Funny how our interest in certain things changes from time to time.

 

Enough mid-week rambling from me. Hope you have a great rest of the week!

I didn't realize until I started putting this post together that every single clothing item is from Old Navy. They were all bought in different years. I guess this is proof of how repeated shopping from a retailer pays off- their pieces go together year after year.

 

You saw these wedges in my last post. Once the temps rise, they go on repeat, but I'm afraid I need to be looking for a new pair. Any day the little piece on the buckle strap or the strap itself is going to break. I just don't want to part with them. It's difficult to find wedges that don't make your feet slide forward out of the shoe, but these are the perfect angle. What items do you have like that? the perfect piece you don't want to part with?

Last weekend I wore this to visit our families for Mother's Day. You've seen me wear this top many times in my business wear, but it makes a cute casual top too when paired with other casual items. I had to play on the "butterfly theme" and add a butterfly bangle.

This is my favorite way of wearing my white sleeveless blazer/vest so far. It's much closer to the outfits I pinned when I was inspired to purchase this piece. I've tried to style it for work before and haven't been quite happy with it. However, it seems to be the perfect piece to add a little edge to a casual outfit.
