Look of the Day #47

Happy Thursday!

This week has been packed full and I have a busy weekend ahead.

It may be spring but it hasn’t been acting like it. Yes, it is mid-April and its still snowing. I’m SO ready for Spring and warmer weather. I tried to brighten my wardrobe with hopes it will make spring come faster.

That brings me to today’s look of the day. I brighten up my look with a bright color and bold necklace. I had a few meetings but a long day, so I wanted something that looked professional but also comfortable for a 10-hour day.

I wore my favorite shoe boots from DSW, I am ready to transition out of these shoes but it’s not time for peep toe shoes yet. I wore these in Chicago and they were very comfortable for walking around the city.

I wore my faux leather leggings from Target, they feel like leggings, but don’t look like leggings. Win-Win!

I brightened up my dark outfit with a bright blue flannel button down from Old Navy. It is made from soft material but also holds up well with washing. I have had it for a few years and have paired it with numerous outfits.

I changed my look up with a bright, bold necklace from Old Navy as well. I love necklaces that can change an outfit as well as dress an outfit up. My bright lip color is from House of Color. I try to keep my lips neutral, but I was feeling the bold color to brighten my mood.

If you know me, then you know I am always cold, therefore it was crucial that a long sweater was necessary. I got this sweater from Tilly’s. I wear this so frequent, with jeans, dresses, leggings or skirts. It’s so versatile and its so easy to throw on.

Here’s to hoping warmer weather is around the corner. I need it, you need it. We all need sunshine in our lives.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Look of the day #18

Hall Fall!

Fall is in full swing and it’s time to start dressing like it. This outfit is a perfect look for a day at the office, a dinner with family, or Sunday mass.  I recently wore this at home for Sunday mass and dinner after. It is still early enough in the season so this short-sleeve dress worked perfect for an early fall day spent with family.

Whenever a new season rolls around, I like to change my color palette of outfits. In the autumn, I love to wear plum, brown, olive green, and navy blue just to name a few colors. I got this olive green dress from Francesca’s Boutique two years ago. It’s a simple green dress but can be layered if needed depending on the season and weather.

I love how you can add a bold or simple piece of jewelry to accessorize your outfit. I decided to make this look more simple with a pair of gold hoops and a gold, long necklace. Necklaces can truly do wonders for an outfit. I wear chokers, chunky necklaces, and long necklaces. Any of those styles can work with a simple solid color dress. Because it is fall, I decided to make gold and brown my accent colors. My jewelry is gold and my shoes and purse (not pictured) are leather and brown.

These shoes are a staple for me in the fall. I got them from T.J. Maxx two years ago and they have worked as a great fall shoe boot. The brown, leather peep toe boot works great to dress up a pair of jeans and a blouse. They can also be paired with a solid or busy brown dress or even a corduroy skirt. These shoes are great for transitional weather from summer to fall or winter to spring.

I hope this look gave you some inspiration for some fall colors or fall fashion. I can’t wait to see what fall trends will be coming out soon.
