I like to experiment with different styles and trends from time to time, and one I really like is dressing up in something "lady like" for church. This skirt always fits that bill. I'm also stretching my wardrobe and looking for more ways to wear this blouse. After pairing it with the soft pink blazer, I decided it needed to be worn with this skirt. I loved how this outfit turned out.

 

What styles do you like to revisit?

I last wore this blouse with all black. This time I mixed it up with a white blazer and striped pumps. I was going to throw a little print in with a leopard pendant necklace, but I could not find my necklace. I've since located it but I had to go with what I could find quickly to get out the door that day.

 

 Do you have those moments where you have planned an outfit in your head and then can't find the pieces?

 

If you are able to be off work to celebrate today, I hope you enjoy yourself, but let's all remember why we have this day. I'm grateful to those who sacrificed their lives for my freedom.

 

Have you been shopping the Nordstorm half yearly sale? I've ordered this striped knot tee in two colors. I'll let you know what I think when it gets here. See my under $25 and under $50 picks here.

Brown and navy

Blazer- Limited

blouse- Banana Republic  option  option

pants- JCPenney  option  option

necklace- old   option

shoes- Payless  option

Brown and navy pair so well together, especially when you have an accessory like this necklace to tie them together. I'm not a huge fan of wearing a blazer over a peplum top, but it was cold in the office, so this is exactly what I wore.

I hope you enjoy your weekend. For many of us, it's a three day weekend, but with a great price paid by others to get it. Let's not forget what we are celebrating this Memorial Day.

I said something similar the last time I wore this suit, but I really like having this lighter color in a suit for spring and summer. This blouse has been around for a while and almost made a closet purge, but I noticed that it had a hint of grey in the flowers and decided it would be perfect with this. I'm pretty happy with the results.

Just add color

Blazer- Banana Republic via Thred up  option  option

top-old  option  option

pants- Belk  option option

shoes- TJMaxx  option  option

necklace- JCPenney  option  option

 

How do you bring a black and white outfit into spring/summer? Just add color! This hot pink blazer and colorful bead necklace were just what I needed to make this outfit bright and cheery for spring and summer.  Here's similar version of this outfit worn in the winter. Thankfully we have had a very mild spring for us and I've been able to keep wearing these pants. They are a heavier weight material and may be too hot once summer actually comes.

 

Speaking of summer- did you catch my round up of summer shorts? I'm sure there will be some great sales this weekend to help up get ready for summer.
