color blocking with blues

Happy Tuesday ladies!

I am little late posting my outfit from yesterday because I have been shamelessly watching The Vow while crying my eyes out and trying to drink my afternoon coffee.    

While watching this movie, my ears fell in love with this song.  It's called Nothing Was Stolen by Phosphorescent.  Give this tune a listen!

Anyways enough about romantic movies, here is the outfit I wore yesterday!  Since the weekend was extremely busy, I wanted something very calm & casual for my Monday afternoon.  I wanted to wear my new Gap cardigan that I found at the outlet so instead of pairing it with my coral colored pants or white crop pants, I went with my light blue pants.  

Color blocking is the main focus of this outfit and I love the two blue hues together.  I am also glad that I paired a white t-shirt to keep the two colors separate and to keep my outfit very casual.  

If you wanted to add a pop of color, I would suggest putting a red or coral color shirt underneath.  You could also add a striped shirt underneath the cardigan to add a little bit of pattern to your outfit!   

Here is my arm candy for the day :)

 

My Outfit:

Cardigan: Gap Outlet

T-Shirt: Loft

Necklace: Forever 21

Broken in Straight: Gap

Shoes: Payless Shoes

If you have tried color-blocking in your outfit, how did it go for you?  Did you like it? If so, share!

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!

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?

Opening Day!

Guess what ladies..

It's Opening Day for the Atlanta Braves!

As a three month old girl, my parents took me there for my first vacation! Ever since then, I have loved going to sporting events, especially baseball games.  Singing take my out to the ball park, hearing the cracks of the baseball bats, & seeing cute guys in baseball pants; what more can you ask for?!

Dressing for baseball games are simple: You need the color scheme for the baseball team you are going to visit.  Then I would check the weather to see how that is going to factor into the game.  

For Braves game, I would suggest wearing a pair of denim shorts, a dressy top, sandals, & cute jewelry.  Games usually get hot from sitting out in the sun so you don't want to get to dressed up to only feel miserable.  For a Braves game, I would suggest a white top with denim jean shorts.  I would also bring a red or navy colored light weight cardigan and then a pair of red wedges or sandals!  

If you are more of a t-shirt girl to baseball games then try a Braves T-shirt then pair them with a white shorts.  I would also bring some top of cardigan just in case of the weather.  

Here are a few pictures of me at past Braves Baseball Games!

One of my best friends, Mary-Hannah, is an extremely large Atlanta Braves fan! She once was able to tell you every player, their position, & batting average.  When we went to Atlanta, we went to two games, for the first one I wore gray shorts & a Braves T-Shirt.  Then for our second game, I want to dress up.  I decided on a denim dress that is comfortable!  They were both paired with my favorite pair of tan sandals from Bakers!

  

Play Ball!!! Don't forget to tune into the Braves game at 7:35 tonight when they take on the Milwaukee Brewers!

Go BRAVES!!

Daily Outfit Post: leopard print & green pants

Hey ya'll!

This morning was difficult to figure out what to put on from my closet!  I had class & work so I wanted to wear clothes that were comfortable to walk across campus in but yet dressy enough for work!  I decided to go with my green pants & a leopard print top.  It was definitely a fun outfit to wear to work, I got plenty of compliments on it because of the green pants that made the entire outfit pop!  Finding pieces of clothing that make your entire outfit pop, are fun because they are easy to wear with multiple outfits!

My Outfit:
Modern Straight Green Pants from Loft
Black V-Neck T shirt from Gap
Leopard print Cardigan from Banana Republic
Nude Heels from Target















Do you have any pieces of merchandise that you wear that make your outfit POP? If so, let me know

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!
