Work Wear

Outfit Details:

blazer: Target (similar and on sale!!)

top: Express

pants: Rachel Roy

pumps: Coach (similar or similar)

purse: Danielle Nicole via Hautelook (similar)

This look is a great work outfit that is comfortable, yet still polished and professional. These black jeans are my absolute favorite that I have been able to find over the years! This is my second pair, since the first has become a bit faded; so I am going to keep these as my nicer pair and the more worn in ones for more casual wear. They aren't the least expensive pair of pants, but I promise they are truly worth the price because they fit curves well without gaping around the waist.

With the black jeans I paired a "swazer" over top of my chambray top. This combination changed up the usual tee -"swazer" action and helped to keep me warmer since the weather was still chilled. Lastly I chose to pair this whole ensemble with my nude Coach pumps to add a chic, feminine touch to the whole look. A true expression of my personal style, at least one aspect of it, chic, feminine, comfortable and eclectic.

What does your typical work wear say about your personal style?

Plaid Society

Outfit Details:

jacket: Talbots

skirt: Moon Collection Live in California via Urban Outfitters

belt: Talbots

clutch: Vintage

shoes: Coach

lipstick: Rouge Dior in 786 Mauve Mystere

I got this blazer two years ago at the Talbots outlet store (a wonderful place to find hidden gems for a steal) and it just has been a timeless piece each Fall since! The blackwatch plaid is classic print that is always being incorporated into Fall collections.

I love the extra detail of the velvet on the collar. The clutch was my Tante's and just simply looks like a magazine rolled up, chic yet simple.

Stay tuned for my first Giveaway tomorrow!

Wedding in Minneapolis

dress: I Heart Aardvarks

shoes: Coach

earrings: Express

ring: Nordstrom

This past weekend I went to a lovely wedding in Minneapolis with Jon. We had such a fun time and it was great meeting all of Jon's friends!

When I saw this dress on Threadflip, I knew I had to have it! It was definitely love at first sight. It cut it close getting to me on time, but Holly from I Heart Aardvarks did all she had to do to get it to me in time for the wedding. Thank God she was able to ship it to the hotel I was in, plus to make things even more perfect, the dress fit amazingly! It was everything I had hoped it would be and I got so many compliments.

They have a lot of other beautiful pieces for amazing prices too! Check them out and I know you will find something you love!
