Blank Canvas

For today's look, I treated this taupe dress as a blank canvas and had fun adding color with the blazer and bold accessories.

Taupe dress:  Target Petites (old)
Blazer:  New York & Company (Available in coral and black here)

This is my favorite way to wear color.  Accessories add plenty of flash and interest, but the neutral dress keeps the look from being too over the top for my personal aesthetic.

Bubble necklace:  ILY Couture (Available here)
Necklace (worn as bracelet):  The Limited (Available here)

Shoes:  Target (Available here)
Belt:  The Limited (Similar here)

I bought this dress on clearance a couple years ago.  I really liked it, but it was a size too big.  I am thinking about getting it taking in and having the hem taken up so that I have an option to wear it without a belt.  I really do believe proper fit makes a huge difference in how flattering one's clothes are.

Cutouts and Coated Denim

Hi everyone! 

Today, I ran to Tar-Jay to do some last minute Easter shopping and this is what I wore:

Sweater:  Forever 21+ (Available here)

I recently got this sweater from Forever 21.  I love the cutouts and the seafoam green color. 

I love wearing oversized sweaters with skinny pants for a casual look.

Coated denim jeans:  Target (Available here)

Necklace:  ILY Couture (Available here)

I wore the leopard flats to the store. The man and I were thinking about going to the movies.  We opted not to go, but I probably would have worn the heels for the date.

Flats:  Target (Similar here)

Heels:  Target (old)
Rings:  New York & Company

What's your go-to errands outfit?

Happy Easter to all those who celebrate!!
