Nauti stripes

This is one of the more casual looks I wear to work, but that's because we're business casual. We basically can wear jeans as long as they don't have holes in them. Some people abuse the rules and wear hooded sweatshirts. I have even seen some sweat PANTS. That's just crazy. I was trying to incorporate my striped shirt into a good look for the office and this is how it came out. I really wanted to use a true nautical stripe, but this will do for now.

Groovy girl

For whatever reason, I associate scarves and hoop earrings with the 1960s/70s. Throw that in with long straight hair and you are really groovin. Yikes. That is some corny writing folks. Not only am I spewing cliche terms, but I am also behind on my posts. This outfit is from Friday. It was feeling unseasonably warm and it was nice to just pick out a fun top instead of a top, a cardigan, a jacket for my cardigan, and a coat for my jacket.

Neutrals

Neutrals and light colors are big trends for spring, which is why I tried to be creative with what I already own. I tried this with a khaki skirt, but the skirt was making me look too hippy (it's really poofy), so I opted for this gray skirt instead. To follow the trend for spring and carry it into summer, I would probably replace the skirt for a khaki color, "safari" clothes are also very in, and the top for a brighter color to pop against the neutral. (P.S. It's a very sunny today!)

Onsie: Practical


So when I bought my onsie, I never thought I could put such a practical outfit together. I like this outfit because the onsie alone is kind of sexy, but when I cover up the plunging neckline with a fall scarf and put some tights on, it looks more like a romper or jumper than something sexy and impractical...it does doesn't it? Doesn't it???
