Green Skirt For Work

I picked up this green skirt at J.Crew last year for a steal! It is absolutely one of my go to skirts. I love the rich color and the fit is so flattering. I also adore the detail at waistbands. J.Crew and the J.Crew Factory carry the skirts almost all the time and I highly recommend them.
Here is what I wore to work last week:









Necklace: J.Crew Factory
Shirt: Forever 21
Skirt: J.Crew
Boots: Merona (Target)

 

Here is a link to one the J.Crew Factory has in stock now.

Check it out! I would love to hear what you think!

Black and White and Bows

For a recent brunch outing I decided to wear one of my favorite tops. I love how girly and classic the bow print is. The purse I found one day when I was out vintage shopping. I love the size and the handles. Of course I had to throw some big sunnies into the mix too. Here is what I wore to brunch:

Keeping A T-Shirt Sassy

I have quite a few graphic tees in my wardrobe, but don't wear them often enough. I love styling them with a simple pencil skirt and heels to dress up the look, but keep it sassy.

I always try to keep myself on a budget when shopping so some of my go to stores are Forever 21, H&M and Icing by Claire's. I always like to stay on trend and wear fashion forward looks.

Here is what I wore for a date night with my boyfriend:

 

Sunglasses: Icing by Claire's

Clutch: H&M

T-Shirt: Rue 21

Ring: Icing by Claire's

Saturday Chic - Midi Skirt

Right now I am really loving the midi skirt trend. It is such a great transition piece from winter to spring! 

This is one of my new favorite go to skirts for a simple, chic, professional look.  

The midi length is fabulous with heels!

It has been super warm here lately so a simple denim jacket works great when I am  running around town, heading to dinner with Kaleb, or meeting friends for brunch.

Here is what I wore with my striped midi skirt: 

Necklace: Brand Unknown (Gifted)
Shirt: Lush (Nordstrom Rack)
Tank BP (Nordstrom)

Back To Work!

Awhile back I used to work at a ticket office. It was a job I always enjoyed. After about 5 years away I decided to come back. I'm glad I did! I work with some great people and the job is really fun.
I'm still doing lots of merchandising, but its nice to be able to bring home some extra money. :)
Here is what I wore for one of my first shifts back:

Plaid Shirt- Lucky Brand (Macy's)

Black Skirt- J.Crew

Belt- BP (Nordstrom)

Black Boots- Charlotte Russe

Bracelet- Madewell

Penny Lane- Funky Concert Outfit

Here is a fun and funky look I came up with that would be great for a concert.

Especially if it's a concert that's also a date!

While the shirt and belt are very classic pieces, the necklace and purse help give it and edge!

 And the skirt brings it to a whole new level.

A concert is a perfect venue to try a look with a little more edge.

I hope you give it a try!
