Outfit Inspiration | April 7, 2014

Outfit Ideas

I hope you find some inspiration in the post. As always, I’d love to hear which is your favorite! Let me know in the comment section.

I love how this outfit came together. I started out with grey jeans and a black silk shirt, but I wanted to wear my boots because we were headed to the rodeo. I was practicing my technique of adding a piece of turquoise to an everyday outfit to make it cowgirl chic, and then I added the scarf for warmth. The outfit came together one piece at a time, starting with basics and then adding the accessories to make it pop.

I’ve always loved the idea of wearing jeans and a tee with a blazer. In fact, I noticed that I keep pinning this look over and over again. Blazers are an easy way to make an outfit dressier without much effort.

Top- James Perse, Vest- Patagonia, Scarf- Here for similar, Jeans- Citizens of Humanity, Shoes- Nike, Watch- Michael Kors

I was having trouble trying to figure out how to wear a scarf with this vest. Should it be on top, under, infinity? I decided to wear it on the outside and as an infinity. I like the way it turned out!

Tee- Nordstrom for similar, Scarf- Free People, Jeans- Citizens of Humanity, Shoes- Nike, Watch- Michael Kors, Bangles-Alex and Ani

Nothing special here, but it’s probably one of my favorites -ha!

Tee- J.Crew, Sweater- J.Crew, Jeans- Citizens of Humanity, Shoes- Rivieras, Necklace- Here for similar, Watch- Kate Spade,Bangles-Alex and Ani, Earrings- Nordstrom

For fun, I tried to give my preppy navy boyfriend cardigan a modern twist with hole(y) jeans -ha!

Top- Everlane, Jeans- Citizens of Humanity, Jacket- Anthropologie, Shoes- Tildon, Necklace- Here for similar, Watch- Michael Kors, Earrings- Nordstrom, Bangles-Alex and Ani

Top- Anthropologie, Jeans- J Brand, Sandals- Elaine Turner (no longer available), Necklace- My mom’s, Earrings- Nordstrom, Watch- Kate Spade, Bangles- Alex and Ani

I love how well my moms old Ann Klein necklace went with this outfit.

    I finally decided to order these gray jeans and they’re out of my size. Grr. Any chance they run big maybe?

    Love them all! But a particular fan of the awesome Nikes (too bad my feet are a tiny 5 and I can’t get those in my size) and the tee shirt with the long crystal necklace look. This is my first time writing a comment but I always read your posts and particularly find that your outfit posts are most similar to my style of casual dress and going out. I am a mom of 2 from a suburb of DC so I don’t wear cowboy boots but I love the style if I ever felt comfortable embracing them! 🙂

Do you want new hair growth in your eyebrows? I ha Do you want new hair growth in your eyebrows? I have a trick, and no, it’s not an expensive hair growth serum! It’s Castor Oil, so it’s all natural and inexpensive. Apparently, it’s been used for thousands of years dating back to ancient Egypt. Ok, and I use it on my eyelashes, too, but I’m doing that at my own risk. I don’t want to recommend this practice, since I don’t really know what it’s going to do to my eyesight. I know, call me crazy- it’s fine. 

Thanks to my friend, Michelle for telling me about this little trick!

I attended a funeral today of a friend who died of I attended a funeral today of a friend who died of mental illness. If my friend is strong enough to stand at the podium and talk about her husband and the hope her family has in the midst of their darkest days, then I want to honor both of them by telling you about my struggle with mental illness. My friend mentioned that many of her husband’s closest friends had no idea that he’d been struggling with mental illness for 3 years, and I realized that many of you, and probably some of my closest friends don’t know how long and hard my struggle has been with mental illness. For me my mental illness wasn’t the kind where I couldn’t get out of bed or out of the house, which would make it hard to tell I was struggling. For me it looked more like battling through the day and struggling with my own self condemning thoughts and emotions - shaming myself for being happy one minute and sad the next, or for not being happy all the time, looking around at all my blessings and not feeling gratitude, which made me feel like there was something wrong with me. It was hard to get excited. On some days I walked around feeling like a scared puppy in a big bad world with my emotions right at the surface. For me, my faith is very important to me, and I knew this was not the life God had for me, so I started to pray for help and deliverance. God started to lead me to help in a whole bunch of different forms, counselors, health practitioners, friends, medicine, trauma therapy, EMDR, books, excercise, the support of family, and most importantly, Christ and His word. 
For me, it was over a 10 year battle probably because I was overcoming a lot of trauma being raised by an alcoholic mom. But for you it may be longer or shorter or this isn’t something you struggle with at all (hallelujah!). If you do, your emotions and your struggle may be different. But I’m here to say, you’re loved. You are loved by God and by so many of the people around you. Don’t give up. Dig in and fight the battle that’s happening in your mind. Fight it like you would if you had cancer. #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #mentalillness #mentalhealthmatters
I had fun taking this outfit from day to night by I had fun taking this outfit from day to night by swapping out my denim skirt for my leather skirt!! I’m also totally digging socks with loafers. Takes me right back to my middle school days, and I’m not sad about it! And yes, that’s what my closet looked like after trying to figure those outfits out, but it was fun! 🤷🏼‍♀️

How to get the cuffed denim look without buying a How to get the cuffed denim look without buying a new pair of jeans! You don’t need to buy a new pair of jeans to get the cuffed denim look! Just grab a pair of straight leg jeans from your closet, cuff them to be about an inch or 2 above the top of your ankle bone and use the nifty little gadget from this tutorial. Viola! Plus, the cuffed denim length makes it a heck of a lot easier to wear most of the shoes in your closet! #winning
