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!

Wonderful Wednesday Trends: Bright Day Dresses

Spring 2012 is filled of different fashion trends for all the ladies to follow!

My favorite trend that I plan on embracing is the Bright Day Dresses.  A Wrap, Shift, Strapless, Sheath, A-Line, Empire, & Shirtdress all cater to each different type of lady.  Accessories for bright dresses are a breeze.  They should be paired with nude high heels or even flats.  Then let a simple necklace lay on top of your colorful dress.  Since spring is full of wild colors so why not your closet be also?

Curvy Ladies

For curvier ladies, I would look for a Wrap or Sheath dress.  These dresses will show off that waistline of yours.  

Short Ladies

For shorter ladies, the Shirtdress or Empire style dress will be your saving grace.  You will want these dresses because they will fit your petite figure perfectly.

Boyish Ladies

The dresses that will fit you will be the Shirtdress or Wrap Dress since they add curves.  You should invest in a belt for these dresses!

Full/Small Bust Ladies

The ladies who were blessed with a full bust, you should dresses that have open necklines and nipped-in waists.  These dresses are going to be Shirtdresses and Wrap style dress.  And if you were blessed not as much (smaller bust), you should try the A-line or Shift style dress.  These styles show off your trim silhouette.  

Tummy Problem Ladies

If you have troubles with your tummy area, look for dresses that do not accent the waistline and look for monochromatic dresses.  The dresses that are going to help you the most are Shift and Empire style dresses.

My top 3 Bright Day Dresses
1. H & M $29.95 - This dress is perfect for short or boyish figure ladies!

2.  Zara $79.90 - This dress will fit short figure ladies & those with a small bust!

3. J. Crew $79.50 - Curvy figured ladies have found their match with this dress!

The great thing about all 3 of these dresses is putting your entire outfit together will be a breeze.  Just pair them with nude heels or flats.  Then belt them with a fun printed belt to show off your waistline.

Now off you go to find the perfect Bright Day Dress!
