Comfort with Cardigans

Yesterday was all about comfort with my outfit.  This cardigan has become a staple in my closet for the past 3 years.  I paired it on top of a white Scoop Neck T shirt from Loft then wore my skinny jeans from Gap.  I could have worn a wider jean opening but I think pairing my skinny jeans with this outfit made it look a little dressier.      

This pair of earrings are from Country Dollar, the store I talked about in my last post, with the $1 merchandise!  I love the blue print on them.  

My Outfit:

Cardigan: Forever 21

T- Shirt: Scoop Neck Tee from Loft

Earrings: Country Dollar

Jeans: Skinny Jeans from Gap

Shoes: Wedges from Target

I forgot to wash my hair before work, so instead of curling it like I planned, I had to throw it up in a sock bun.  Instead of doing a high sock bun, I decided to do a low one.  Which bun do you like better?

Hope ya'll have an awesome hump day!

Coral Pants

When spring classes were still in session, I wore this outfit to class!  With work and blogging other outfits, I guess this outfit slipped my mind to post! 

I love colored pants, just ask any of my friends!  If I have the choice, I would wear them every day.  I found these broken-in straight pants from Gap.  They fit like a glove and they can easily be dressed up or down.  

You will find that I pair these pants with many different types of tops.  But for this particular day, I wanted to wear a casual white blouse with a pop of blue in my necklace!  This way it keeps the outfit very casual for my mile-long walk on campus to class.

My outfit:

Broken in Straight Pants - Gap

Blouse - Loft

Necklace - Gifted from my momma

Shoes - Payless Shoes

What do you ladies think of colored pants?

Blazers in the Summertime

Happy Friday ladies!! 

For the past week, Tallahassee has been HOT.  The weather on Monday hit around 92 degrees and it has only cooled down a couple of degrees throughout the week.  So instead of dressing in a tee shirt to work (like I always do), I decided to dress up my black tank with an old blazer I found in my closet.   

The blazer is perfect for this weather since it is 100% Linen, however I had a problem with the wrinkles.  The iron and I had a pretty hard battle but I think I conquered all the wrinkles in the blazer. 

I paired this lightweight blazer with my favorite pair of cropped pants from Loft.  Cropped pants have never been a necessity of mine but ever since I tried the Curvy fit, I have fallen in love with them!     

 

I found this cute bird necklace from Target yesterday, when I went in for a new planner.. I came out with a new necklace & earrings plus the planner.  But anyways, that is a whole different story.  The earrings & necklace were in a pack together for only $4.99, so if you are in love with this, I would definitely go pick it up!  It's definitely a steal.  

My Outfit:

Blazer: Loft, 1 year ago

Tank: Target

Cropped Pants: Loft

Shoes: Payless Shoes

Necklace: Target 

What is the latest steal that you have found?  Let me know, so I can check it out!  I hope everyone has a lovely Friday!

Daily Outfit Post: Keepin' it Cool

The first day of summer break was yesterday and I ended up leaving my house in a pair of jeans .. 

Crazy right? I thought so.  

To make my outfit a little bit cooler, I paired my Gap skinny jeans with my tan sheer top from Loft.  Since I have purchased this top, I have worn it countless times in many different ways (sorry for not posting them!).  

For styling the sheer top, I tucked in the right side of the shirt and then left the left side untucked for a casual fun summer style.  

For jewerly, I wore a pair of yellow earrings and a pair of bangles.  

My outfit:

Jeans: Always Skinny from Gap

Blouse: Loft

Shoes: Payless Shoes

P.S. I promise one day I am going to teach myself  the settings on my camera and not take them on my  iPhone!!

Daily Outfit Post: Polka Dots Galore

Happy Sunday ladies!

So far today has been quite eventful.  I keep learning new things at work, got to chit chat with my roomie before she went home for the summer, & I got to chat with my sister while we were both watching the basketball playoff games!  

Today's outfit was inspired by comfort.  On Sundays, I like to wear an outfit that I could curl up on the couch and nap in.  This outfit has definitely been it and I plan on napping shortly!

I have a large obsession with pearls.  If I can choose, I want to wear my pearls with every single outfit.  They definitely hold some awesome memories from the past 5 years.   

My entire outfit is from Loft.  The maroon colored scoop neck tee has to be my favorite tee shirt of all times.  I plan on purchasing every single color because they are the perfect staple item!  

Where does your favorite staple item come from?

Daily Outfit Post: Black and Blue

With this week being the last week of regular classes, my days have been quite crazy.  I had class then work today so I had to throw my hair up and get ready for my day!  Of course, I picked today to do laundry so the only thing I had to wear were dresses.  

I decided on an Ann Taylor dress that I found from Goodwill.  Yes, you read that correctly.. I said Goodwill.  Making trips to Goodwill are an extreme high for me because I never know what I am  going to find!  

Outfit:

Dress: Ann Taylor from Goodwill

Blouse: Loft 

Shoes: Payless Shoes 

Earrings: Forever 21

This is definitely a new look for me but everyone at work approved of it, so I am guessing I did alright for taking a chance!

Have you ever taken a risky chance on an outfit? If so, let me know what it was!

Daily Outfit Post: Work Attire

Since I work at Loft, I am required to dress up and look the part of a Loft employee.  This is not a problem for me since I enjoy dressing up so much! On the days I work I will try to capture my attires to show everyone how to dress cute & professional but still be comfortable.  I am usually on my feet for 7 - 8 hours a day when I work, so I tend to wear flats.

Outfit: 

My black dress is from Loft and is currently on sale in stores & online.  It comes in a blue color.

My cardigan is from Old Navy, I have had this cardigan for the past couple of years and I always keep it every year because it makes my eyes even bluer!

My necklace is from Forever 21 and was only $8.00! It was definitely a steal.  I couldn't find the exact necklace of mine online but it is quite similar! 

My shoes are from Payless Shoes.  This has been my best investment in the past couple of months.  They were only $16 and are perfect for ladies who work in retail! They even come in black!
