Tweed and Chambray

Let's talk about 2 things: 1) How excited I am that JCrew brought back this fabulous tweed pencil skirt (even if it was only for a few hours!!) and 2) how freakin much I LOVE Tweed and Chambray together.  

I feel like they are both just so easy to pair up with each other and, well, pretty much everything that's already in your closet.  

Skirt - JCrew No.2 Pencil in Tweed
Shirt - OldNavy Chambray
Necklace - JCrew

Fall Work Wear

Oh my friends how long it has been!!!  

Let me re-cap what I've been up to lately: shopping like a crazy person (legit so many things to show you); building my retailers favorites and wish lists; and traveling for free!!  I've spent a few months absolutely OBSESSED with how people do this and let me tell you it's all good stuff.  Seriously.  

But free travel is an entirely different blog post.... so for now, you get to see my How I Wore It for today. 

Jacket - JCrew Tipped Schoolboy Blazer
Shell - JCrew
Skirt - JCrew No.2 Pencil in Wool
Necklace - JCrew Crystal statement necklace
Shoes - Sophia Webster via Nordstrom 

The skirt in this ensemble is Jade green, while the shell, tights and shoes are all Navy blue.  I am a big believer in mixing up colors inside their family, ditto for mixing my patterns!!  

Rocking the 9:5

As most of you know I work in a "business casual" conservative office environment, unfortunately my taste in clothing doesn't always reflect the atmosphere :-)  I like to dress up and accessorize and push some boundaries, and most of all I love prints, I love shoes, and I love colors.  

Enjoy!


Kate Spade Fit and Flare 

I freakin love Kate no question everything she creates is amazing.  Well probably not everything, but most things.  Plus this fit and flare is flattering on everyone. 

JCrew and Joie - a perfect pairing

I wasn't sure I was going to love this Joie top (here) but I have to tell you it's pretty amazing, I paired it here with a JCrew No.2 pencil skirt, statement necklace, and black peep toe pumps with snake print trim


DVF 

I wasn't 100% sure that snake print would be office appropriate, but you know what? I don't care!!! I love LOVE this dress!!!! This is via the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale (here)
