If you are a regular reader, then you probably recognized right away that this is not my signature look. Nonetheless, sometimes it's fun to try a different look. I started out with booties but they just weren't comfortable so I switched to my sneakers. I love these shoes and they have been a go to for "off duty" casual attire lately. Once I went with the sneakers, I decided what the heck, since I've got a sporty thing going on with the stripes and sneaks, I may as well throw on the beanie. I do like to wear a beanie once in a while in the winter, but I'm not so sure it really looks all that good on me. Maybe I'm too old for it. I was going to be outside in the cold night air, so the beanie stayed, regardless of looks. Sometimes function wins over fashion.

Back to work, back to work. Hope you had a great weekend. Mine was not as productive as it should have been, but I made some progress on some chores and did a couple of fun things. And today was easier to face as a Monday because tomorrow is a holiday!

 

I fell in love with a mustard cardigan a couple of years ago and went to great lengths to find one. It was one of those items that was sold out by the time I decided to purchase one. However, I found one and still love it. Below are three other ways I've worn it.

You might also want to take a peek back at four ways I've worn a purple cardigan.

One of my favorite things about this shirt is the faux leather shoulder tabs. Oh and it's rich fall floral pattern. I paired it with a navy pencil skirt this time. Both pieces happened to be from Target, purchased at separate times.

 

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you have a great weekend.

We had a three day cold spell, but it's back in the 70s now. At least I had a chance to pull out a scarf on Monday and wear it to work. I kept this outfit very neutral with black, white and grey but fun with stripes and dots. I chose flat shoes because I knew it was going to be a busy day.

 

What are your tricks for staying conservative but still wearing fun things to the office?

Swayed again

Remember when I talked last week about being swayed by social media to buy something? It happened to me twice. This skirt from Target has also been in several collages on Pinterest and in many "ways to wear" posts by other bloggers. So the more I saw it, the more I needed it. Yep, swayed again.

 

Seriously, I happened to see it my local Target and had a 25% off cartwheel. I have five or more tops to wear with it, and a floral print is something I'd like to have more of in my wardrobe, so this was a no-brainer decision. My first way of styling and wearing this skirt is pretty close to one of Audrey's suggested ways. It will be a while before I run out of options from my closet with this one.

This wasn't  a Halloween outfit, just worn on October 31.  It was just the first chance I had to wear this scarf. And let me tell you about this scarf. This outfit is pretty much a total knock off of Megan's. I fell in love with the whole outfit when I saw it and promptly pinned it. I also pinned the exact scarf to my wish list board. And then I waited because it was too hot at the time for me to wear a scarf. I decided a couple of weeks ago that it was time to make the purchase and to my dismay, the scarf had SOLD.OUT. Nooooo... So I went on a frantic search and found this one on ebay. I'm pretty sure it's an exact match, there is just no brand tag on this one.

 

Oh and the hat... I've never been much of a hat person. At least not baseball caps. Even when I had long hair, I didn't like hats. I recently purchased a straw fedora on clearance and wore it on our vacation. The hubby liked it. So I thought I'd give this one a try. The hubby likes this one on me too, so I'll keep it. Never mind that it's one of the most popular items for fall.

One sweater= three ways

 

1/ 2/ 3

 



 

We are having a few days of sweater weather so I thought I'd share a remix of three ways I've worn a pink crew neck sweater. I don't get to wear sweaters as much as I'd like because it doesn't stay cold long enough, but they can be great pieces to have when you do need them. They can be worn alone or layered.

 

Last week's schedule didn't leave much room for photographing outfits and I had a couple of days in a type of work attire that I don't share, so I was short on posts. I have a couple of posts to share for this week, but I'm not sure how the photographs are going to go with the fall back on the time. It will just about be dark when I get home and I hate indoor photos. We will see.
