I didn't realize how many thrifted pieces I was wearing in one outfit until I listed it all out above. Maybe I should have made a title based on that fact. Instead, I  focused on the twist top. I have worn this jacket with either grey or black pants many times and it's amazing how just changing the top or color that I pair it with makes a whole new outfit.

 

Hope you have a great weekend!

It's spring so I have pulled out the color, and have found a way to wear these pants other than pairing them with black and white. The last time I wore them I mused about how I had always paired them with black and white. And I'm not ashamed to say I flat out copied this look from Jessica at Here and Now. I just swapped the skirt from her look for pants. I'm also on the hunt for another cardigan in this color. This one has seen a lot of wear over several years and is fading.

Updated: I had a chance to come back and update links in this post. I'll also say that I love these new shoes. Once again I'm raving about Payless shoes. And kudos to me for wearing this denim jacket a little more. Maybe I'll finally reach a decent cost per wear with it. Now, if I could just find as much use for the white denim jacket I own.

Coral, cobalt, mint, chevron and floral!!??? How much more goodness and how many more trends can you pack into one garment? I saw this blouse at TJMaxx a few weeks ago. It pretty much called my name from the rack, but I ignored it and left it there. I kept thinking about it and decided that it would mix with four or five other items in my closet so I went back and purchased it. It was then that I realized that in addition to all my favorite spring colors, this blouse had chevron and florals in the print. Score!

 

In celebration of spring, I wore this blouse with my coral blazer on Friday. For some reason the lighting is making my blazer look more of a salmon pink color, but trust me, it's coral. And this top is so cute. The top has a keyhole back with ties to tie a little bow at the neckline. I must wear it sometime without a blazer so it can be seen.

The Inspiration:

 

 

When I saw this ad from Ann Taylor, I was reminded of this top I thrifted and still needed to wear, so this outfit was inspired. As much as I love color, I love the clean blending of beige and black. Something about this is perfect for a conservative work environment, yet still polished and not boring.

 

You have probably noticed I don't add my purses or bags much. I tend to carry the same one over and over. I had to add this one in the pics because it goes so well with the outfit. And for a cheap, or inexpensive bag, it looks pretty good. The key is minimal hardware. Cheap bags with lots of shiny cheap metal look, well, cheap.

 

I think these shoes add a little more here too than plain black shoes. I've actually gotten more wear out of these than I thought I would, even though at 4 inch heels they are certainly not daily go tos.

 

Here's a look back at a few outfits with the shoes:
