Look of the Week: Cornflower Blue Jeans

It has been a while since I did a look of the week.


*gotta love a busy work-week and a small vacation*


But I am back and this week it hasn't been as hot outside so I got the chance to break out one of my favorite pieces, my colored jeans.


I took another page from InStyle and paired these bright jeans with a neutral. I have put them with bright tops before but have found that it's a little too much.

Jeans: Nordstrom's Rack
Top: Paper Doll
Shoes: Aldo
Bracelet and Necklace: Vintage
Watch: Toy Watch

I think the jeans make enough of a statement to keep the rest in white. But what do you think? did it need to have a more fitted top or a belt to accent the waist? 

Happy Shopping!

Look of the Week: "Casualizing"

This week has been hot. 


Not quite as hot as this past weekend, but warm enough to not feel comfortable in pants. So I dug this dress out of the closet. I wore it for my bridal shower last year but hadn't had a chance to wear it since. 


I decided to through a casual twist to it for work yesterday. 

Dress: Paper Doll
Vest: Levis
Shoes: Forever 21
Necklace: Baked Beads

By throwing the vest with the dess, it accented the waist and the flat shoes dressed it down a little bit.

(FYI: menswear shoes are another closet staple for this fall. These were super cute and only around $10. Fashion forward without breaking the bank!)

So what do you guys think?

Look of the Week: Date Night

Andrew and I took a much needed date night this weekend. We tried out a great Italian restaurant in Southington. I dug out a great skirt that I am absolutely obsessed with but hadn't worn yet! This is one of those skirts that I could really dress up or keep it on the casual side. I decided to keep it casual sexy for this outing. 

Skirt: Forever 21

Tank: Paper Doll

Shoes: Christian Louboutin

Necklace: Charming Charlie

I could easily change this to work in the office by pairing a great black blazer with it. The high waist of the skirt also really accents the smallest part of the waist. Having blue with the red really is a fun color combination and a different neutral other than black or white.
