I'll admit that I'm getting tired of my spring capsule. I may call it at the end of the month. I'll also admit that it has made me push my creativity and mixing skills. I would have never come up with this outfit if I were not doing this capsule. I have worn blush and navy before, but not with the addition of a white blazer.

 

These shoes are another pair that my coworker gave me. Perfect for when I want to wear flats but need the dress of a heel.

This top from Target has been a work horse in my spring wardrobe. It pairs well with other pastels, brights, and conservative darks and neutrals.

 

These photos are pretty crappy. I retreated to the back yard because a new neighbor moved in across the street and I just didn't want to take pics in front of the movers and a new audience. By now you would think I wouldn't care who was watching. So... the background is less than appealing and it was breezy again. I'm not complaining too much about the breeze. It makes our climate tolerable.

Graphic tee and boyfriends

I can't think of anything more comfortable (for going out of the house) than boyfriend jeans and a tee. I resisted this type of jeans for a long time because of the distressing and I had a hard time with fit, but once I got over the distressing and found this fit from Loft, I fell in love. Over the past year, these have become a favorite. Add a pair of cute shoes and you even look like you put some effort into getting dressed.

 

I wore this tee last fall with a cardigan, jeans and sneakers.

And I've also worn it with a skirt.

I'm not much into plain tee shirts but I love a good graphic tee.

You can tell a few things from my photos and posts. 1- it's been a bit breezy in the afternoons (photo 3) . 2- I'm still a little behind on posting last months outfits. 3- I really like these nude shoes from Payless.

 

These shoes are like my summer go to version of black pumps in the winter. I'm sure the black pumps appreciate the break.

 

I hope everyone had a great Mother's Day!

Belted cardigan

I have decided that the belted cardigan look is not for me. I've tried it a couple of other times and it just does not flatter. I have a short torso and belting a cardigan tends to emphasize that and make me look thicker. If a cardigan doesn't lay nice and smooth it adds more rolls and bulges. Who wants that?

 

I could have ditched this post but I decided to share it anyway because the outfit idea might still work for someone else. It might also help someone evaluate what works or doesn't work for them and why. I love this look on others. 

 

What fashion trend or practice works or doesn't work for you?
