Hey guys! I'm really excited to tell you about the pieces of my wardrobe today! I must admit that I think this is my favorite outfit from the passed 4 days, and, ironically, it features a piece I was most skeptical to purchase. :) Let's get started!
Top: White Spaghetti Strap, Forever 21
This top is another Sis hand-me-down. I love the white crocheted bottom, especially next to all the denim in this outfit. I think it looks super cute! I plan on layering this top with other shirts as well because of the cute detailing at the bottom
Layering: Chambray shirt, Banana Republic
This is it! This was the shirt I was most skeptical to buy! I didn't even know it was called a Chambray shirt until Saturday when I explained to Mama and Sis what I was looking for. I had it written on my list as "denim long-sleeved button down". I wasn't sure I really wanted this shirt because it looked a little too western to me. It also reminded me of the 90's when there was way more denim than there needed to be. However, I love this top! I'm sure you'll see more of it soon! It's quite versatile!
Bottoms: Legging Jeans, New York and Company
These are my new skinny jeans. However, they aren't called skinny jeans. New York and Company call these pants leggings (but they're jeans). They have a skinny jeans cut, but it's looser than these and they didn't have my size. I figured these were even better. They fit perfectly and make me think, again, that I need to take the size 6 boyfriend jeans back... Boo!
Shoes: Cognac Quilted Boots, Amazon.com
I got these boots from Michael for Christmas. I love them! They are probably my favorite pair of shoes that I own! However, you're more of a winter/fall shoe. They went with this outfit, so I'm rocking them, but I'd like a camel colored ankle boot with a heel. I did some looking on amazon, but couldn't find much I loved. I'll have to keep an eye out when the fall styles hit the stores for some new ankle boots! :)
Accessories: Thin brown belt, Kohls
This belt actually came from a dress that I put in the garage sale pile because it's not the greatest fit. However, I like the belt, so I kept it. :) I think it ties the outfit together well. (Literally! ;) It's my husband's fault I say nerdy things like that.) I love how the belt and the shoes have the same Brown and are accented with gold. Some jewelry would be good with this outfit, but we discussed this before, I'm too cheap to spend good money on bad jewelry. ;)
