Look of the Day #129

Hey hey everyone! 

Happy Thursday! I can’t believe the holidays are quickly approaching. Halloween was just a few weeks ago, Thanksgiving is in a few weeks and then we are into the Christmas season. Have you started your Christmas shopping? I know, I have not. I have some ideas but haven’t started the shopping yet. That will come soon enough. The one thing that comes with the holidays are all the holiday parties, whether it’s through work or school or friends, nothing brings people together than a party.

Today’s outfit is perfect as we get ready for the cold weather. I have recently been wearing a lot of blacks and grays, I think this is due to the gray and cloudy weather I have been experiencing. This outfit would be perfect if you are running errands or out and about. Pieces of this outfit could even be used for a holiday party. Let’s get to the details. 

I LOVE this black turtleneck sweater, I adore it so much that I have one in pink too. It is warm, made from good material, and can be dressed up or down, wear it with jeans, leggings, dress pants or even a skirt, there are truly so many options. I opted to wear this black turtleneck from GAP with a pair of houndstooth leggings. 

I got these leggings from Old Navy, I love the houndstooth print. It reminds of a classy and European style. I have worn this leggings with a red blazer for a dressier holiday look and heels, which worked great. But for today’s look I went for a simple look of the leggings with the sweater. 

Lastly, I opted for my high black boots. I love the heel and how they tie my whole outfit together. I got these boots from Marshalls last year and they are holding up great for year two!

This outfit feels very wintery to me. I love the darker colors for the darker weather, but I also like how it feels very warm and cozy too. How are you prepping your wardrobe for the colder weather?

Have a wonderful weekend!!

Look of the Day #109

Hi guys! It’s Thursday!

This week and month are flying by. I believe it’s been going so fast with how busy I have been. I have been working during the weeks and traveling on the weekends, I’ve been gone for work, visiting friends and seeing family. This summer has been so good so far and I am looking forward to what’s in store for the rest of the summer.

One of my best friends from college is visiting me and I am so excited to show her around my home town and just relax for a few days. I will keep you posted on what we all do next week!

For my next few looks of the days, I will be alternating between business casual looks and more summer chic looks. Today I have a summer chic look for you. I put together this look for my trip to Chicago a few weeks back and I loved it so much that I knew I had to share.

Perfect for sightseeing

Let’s first start with these shorts. I got them from Old Navy. How cute are the blue and white checkers?! I love how effortless they look but can really pull together an entire outfit!

Since I wore this while sightseeing, I opted for a white t shirt from Old Navy, but I plan on pairing these shorts with a white blouse. This top is what I wore for my birthday celebrations in Pittsburgh. It can be worn to dress up a pair of jeans like I did or worn with a pair of shorts like you could also do with this outfit. 

How cute is this top?

A jean jacket is a must for my wardrobe and my navy blue one has gotten a lot of use. I got a white jean jacket to break up my go to colors. I have been loving this jean jacket. I wore it with a black and white romper when I was out with friends, I have worn it with leggings when I went to get ice cream one night and I have worn it with a few sundresses. I know this will be a summer favorite for me. 

I wore a pair of slip on sneakers from Target, they were comfortable for walking around in the city but in the future, I could see myself wearing sandals with this outfit!

Overall, this was the perfect outfit for a day of sightseeing and being out and about and something I would definitely wear again especially when traveling! 

Have a great weekend!

Look of the Day #107

Hi All! It’s Thursday, one more day until the weekend!!! We almost made it. What fun things do you have planned for the weekend ahead? I hope it’s filled with relaxing and time spent doing something fun, it is summer after all!

I’m changing up today’s look of the day. The past few weeks have been filled with lots of business casual clothes, but I do have a few cute summer outfits for the weekends and evenings. 

I went shopping last week and put together this outfit featuring different shades of blue. The weather was in the 70’s but overcast and this outfit did the trick for the different weather. 

All blue everywhere

I opted for a pair of jeans with the ankles cuffed for more of a summer look. I wanted to wear denim, but I didn’t want a full leg of jeans, therefore I cuffed them, and they worked perfect! My jeans are from my go-to place for jeans, Old Navy!

 I decided to wear this light-almost sky-blue t-shirt from Gap. I love how the top made the jeans feel lighter. Since this is a short sleeve top, I threw on a navy-blue sweater to tie in the two shades of blue. I got this light sweater from Target a few years back. It’s perfect for those cool mornings or evenings. 

Since I have three different blues being worn here, I wanted to have an accessory that tied them all together…enter this scarf/bandana/headband. I got it from Old Navy at the beginning of the season. You may recognize the pattern from my dress I wore for Easter.

I love how it ties the whole outfit together, you can wear this accessory as a scarf, tie it to your purse, or wear it like a headband. I opted for the headband look and was so happy with how it turned out. 

I decided to wear a simple pair of sandals to accessorize my outfit.

Lastly, I’m using my Longchamp bag to hold everything I need when I am out and about. This is my go-to purse for everyday use. It is big, holds everything I need and is durable. Although pricey, I think it’s totally worth it.

Strolling into summer

That’s a look into what I am wearing a bit of a break from the professional clothes and it shows different outfits you can wear in the summer. 

Have a fabulous weekend!
