Happy Thursday!

It has been a well-paced week after fall break. This weekend will be a busy one for me as I have to work but it’s the last time I have to work weekends this semester. Yay!! It’s the little things in life that bring me bursts of joy. Haha!

Well, we are more than half way through October which means we are fully in the midst of the fall season. Today’s outfit is perfect for a fall walk, a trip to a coffee shop or going to class. It is both cuddly and cozy-two of my favorite fall things. Just give me a cup of hot apple cider and a good book and then I am one happy girl.

Festive for fall

Let’s break down this fall outfit. I love the oversized turtle neck sweater from Gap. I also have a hot pink one too that I love to wear in the fall. You can dress up or dress down this sweater with another outfit. It can be worn with jeans, leggings, or even a pencil skirt for a more formal look.

I paired the black sweater with a pair of floral leggings from Old Navy. I love the gray, black, and tan small flowers. They don’t look like leggings especially with the pattern and the big sweater.

I decided to top this outfit off with a pair of tan and black ballet flats. I love how these shoes tie the whole outfit together. I got these cute ballet flats from Forever 21, I have worn them to work, classes, or out shopping. They are both stylish and comfortable.  The colors tan, gray, and black all scream fall to me to I love wearing them together.

What outfits do you like to wear to bring in the fall season?

Look of the Day #58

Hello Friends! It’s Thursday, only one more day till the weekend! Woo Hoo!

Earlier in the summer, I mentioned how I would be sharing more professional and business casual outfits for the intern, college student, or new employee. Today, I have a new outfit that is cute, colorful, professional, and affordable. What more could you ask for?!

Ready for a new day at work

Let’s break down this outfit. I got these cute pants from GAP. This year I have really been struggling to find dress pants, so many pants on the market today are skinny, tight and almost look like leggings-not what I am looking for in a dress pant. I found these at GAP and not only did I love the cut, form but the color is too cute to pass up. The rose-colored pink breaks up the neutral colors that I wear to work daily. I have a few other print and neutral tops for work that I often wear with white or blue pants, so these pink pants will break up the colors. I’m positive you will be seeing these pants more this summer.

I got my blouse from Francesca’s Boutique. I love the sleeves. The blue and pink go so well together. I like how you can wear this top with a blazer or sweater or by itself. Because it is a solid top, I knew I had to dress it up with some jewelry.

I like the simplicity of this necklace but at the same time it adds dimension and character to this outfit. Silver is also a great color that can tie outfits together. Another reason why I chose to add it to my outfit.  I decided to wear a simple pair of blue drop earrings to finish off my jewelry.

As much as I love heels, it’s not always smart to wear them at the workplace where you could be running errands and on your feet all day. These simple, black, pointed toe ballet flats from GAP are perfect for the office setting. They are professional but also comfortable.

No matter where you work, you can always spruce up your wardrobe while not breaking the bank. Just remember not to go overboard as you are still in the workplace and are representing the place you work.

Have a great weekend!

Look of the Day #21

Cute and Comfortable…a match made in Heaven

Looking for a quick and effortless outfit to throw together for a lunch date?  Want to be cute and comfortable? I have the perfect outfit for you. This outfit is simple enough to wear while traveling and still look cute when you arrive. I recently wore this outfit to class and I loved how I could still look cute, matching, while not breaking the bank.

I don’t shop at Forever 21 a lot but, when I do I typically get classic black and white t shirts and black leggings. These are staples in my wardrobe since they are simple colors that can be worn with every outfit. In today’s look everything I’m wearing is from Forever 21.

Let’s start from the top with this light, caramel sweater. This light sweater is perfect for wearing alone or layered. I have a lot of ideas of how to layer this sweater for fall so stay tuned. This sweater came in a lot of colors but I decided to go with neutral color since I can match it with a lot of things.

In the past, I have worn this outfit with a pair of black dress pants to dress it up. However, on this day I had a long day filled with a lot of running around so I opted to go for a pair of leggings.

Perfect little ballet flats. The colors match my outfit perfectly

My shoes are my favorite part of the outfit. Ballet flats are a hit or miss for me. But, when I saw these tan and black flats I knew I had to get them. This also went perfect with this outfit so I was more than happy when I got them. Pair this outfit with a simple brown clutch and some gold earrings and you will be good to go on the go.

Happy Weekend Friends!
