One skirt- 5 ways

 
I picked this skirt up last year (a great option here)  and it has been a good investment. Even though it's a pattern, it's basic colors still make it versatile enough for many outfits year round. These are five ways I've worn it. Click on the number links for details on each outfit.

Pink and yellow

 
 
Blazer- thrifted option option
blouse- Loft option
belt- Target option
shoes- TJMaxx option
Worn July 1, 2014
 
I'm a little obsessed with pink and yellow this summer. Just scroll though my pinterest board. I think this particular outfit pin inspired this outfit.  I really liked this one and felt good in it all day. So why is it when you create great outfit, the pictures turn out like crap? I promise these photos don't do this justice. You can barely tell but the blouse is a light lemon yellow. I loved it with the pink blazer and belt.

Instant outfit



 
Dress- Belks option option
shoes- TJMaxx option option option
bracelet- Target
worn June 29, 2014
 
Every woman should have a great pullover dress that's full of fun prints but no fuss to wear. Paired with a great pair of shoes, it's an instant outfit. That's what this dress is for me. When I don't want to fuss with multiple pieces, buttons, fasteners, etc. I slip this on and go.

Hope you're having a great week.

Yellow peplum blazer- three ways




 
Blazer- old (Cato) option option
blouse- old option
pants- JCPenney similar similar
shoes- Payless option
necklace - gift option option
Worn June 29, 2014
 
You can see below the original pairing of this blazer with it's matching skirt. I've been breaking up these two this year and putting the blazer to use on its own. Above I paired it with black and grey, based on an outfit idea I had pinned. The statement necklace keeps it from being too plain.

Happy Fourth of July



 
Blazer- Cato option option
blouse- old
pants- Gap
shoes- old similar option
belt- thrifted option steal
purse- Payless option option
Worn July 3, 2014
 
I couldn't let the Fourth of July pass without a patriotic outfit post because, well, everyone else was doing it. LOL. I wore this to work yesterday.  I will wear red, white and blue generally anytime of the year. It just works so well. Today I'll be wearing something more relaxed since I don't have to work.
 
Hope you all have a great day!

Classic




Blouse- JCPenney option option
pants- Limited
belt- Target option
shoes- DSW option  option
worn June 25, 2014
 
What's more classic than white, camel and leopard? While I usually reserve camel for the fall, I decided a white blouse would make it a summer look. And I ran out of outfit ideas, so going back to basic pieces is a standby.

Mint and navy




 
skirt- Limited option option
shoes- TJMaxx similar option
necklace- Forever 21
worn June 23, 2014

Mint and navy- another great color combination. The navy keeps the mint professional. The peplum edge makes this feminine and the pencil skirt keeps it stuctured. When I wear things to the office that I might not otherwise, I do so by pairing them with neutral or structured pieces that are office appropriate. I was going to wear this to church a couple of weeks ago, but decided to wear it to the office instead the next day.
