Overall Update

Silence + Noise Sweater / Blank NYC Overalls / Socks / Tildon Booties (similar) / Maria Black Ear Cuff

Many people have a love/hate relationship with overalls; but for me, it's all L.O.V.E. A classic revival that continues to evolve each time it creeps back and throughout the time it sticks around. If you are an a fan, mix up your typical overall look by wearing a sweater on top! A little cropped and boxy is best so you get just that peek of the bib. A bit of a roll on the bottom, white socks, and menswear inspired booties, give you a fun, streetstyle look!

Saturday Series: Part VIII

Aerie Bralette (similar) / CK Boyshorts / David Beckham x HM Long Johns / Hue Socks

When I do wear pants at home (that aren't large sweats), long johns are always a favorite. This mens pair from David Beckham's line for H&M= softest ever. Worn slung low on the hips with my favorite calvins and a silky bralette, and I'm set for a day indoors feeling comfy and sexy. Happy weekend!

A Little Downtown Chic

Living Doll Top / Ellison Jacket or here / Zara Shorts / Stuart Weitzman Boots / Francescas Bag or here / Gorjana Necklace / Jules Smith Choker / Handmade Ring

Like I spoke to in my last post, I've been challenging myself to create outfits starting with one key piece. Today's was this clean and simple buttondown by Living Doll LA. I typically would reach for my black highwaisted skinnies to pair it with, but I decided to switch things up and grabbed my leather shorts. Added my new favorite OTK boots, a little fur, chains, and metal details, and it was a done deal! Shop it out above to get a bit of downtown chic.

Ring It In

Invaluable Ring / Uniqlo Sweater / Michael Kors Skirt / Hunting Season Clutch / Plomo Mule

Have you ever had a piece of jewelry that you absolutely love but have no clue what you would actually wear it with? Rings have always been my favorite, so when I find a gorgeous vintage one like above, I allow it to inspire me. The turquoise and western vibe of this piece immediately drew me to a fringe skirt. Paired with a snake skin clutch, cozy sweater, and pointy mule, I complete the look just from that single little ring! Check out the links above to shop the look and Invaluable for more amazing rings.

Saturday Series: Part VII

Urban Outfitters Tank / Calvin Klein Boyshorts

I have completely fell in love with the Calvin Klein Underwear revival of the 90s. Classic boyish waistband has you feeling like Kate Moss circa 1992. My style has a tendency to fall back to the years of my childhood, aka the 90s, so it's awesome that CK has brought it back with flying colors. I love incorporating my calvins with some vintage highwaisted jeans for a fun look out or casually with a backless tank, all grey, neutral, sexy.

Saturday Series: Part VI

Naturally, I'm in love with the fact that highwaisted underwear is back. In different fabrics, textures, colors, the possibilities are endless. I opted for this gorgeous lace pair to achieve a sexier granny panty (insert laugh emoji). With a buttery soft tee, frilly socks and a rhinestone choker, there's a retro allure that ups your homey uniform. Happy weekend and girly relaxation.

Full Tux

Vintage Levi's Denim Jacket / Vintage Cotton Oxford / Patch Pocket Flares / Tibi Mules

The Canadian Tuxedo. Originating from the famous Bing Crosby, this trend has ebbed in and out of style in various shapes and silhouettes. From Bing, to Super Troopers, to Justin and Britney, it has had its fair share of ups and downs. I'm bringing it back around with a nod to the 70s and a taste of the 80s. Highwaisted, wide leg, patch pocket flare, cotton top, boxy jacket, pointy boot. The play on proportions and combination of decades elevates the look to a fresher, streetstyle chic. Shop by look above for your new TUX.

Saturday Series: Part V

Silence + Noise Sweater / Calvin Klein Boyshorts / Textured Socks

Raise your hand if your loungewear uniform involves only wearing the largest sorority tshirt in your drawer paired with the lumpiest sweatpants at the bottom. Yep, that's what I thought. But seriously, ME TOO. But seriously again, I'm here to tell you that you can actually look cute without having to sacrifice the oversized and cozy goodness. By trading my sweats for super soft boyshorts and the tee for a still oversized but cool knit sweater, I go from looking slightly homeless to a bit more chic and sexy. Add classic white socks and a topknot and your beau might fall over when he walks through the door. Who knew you could be so cute? ;)

Business Casual

Forever 21 Blazer Coat (here, here, here) / Men's Mossimo Tee / Madewell Sweatpants (here, here, here) / Converse Chuck Taylors

Ever since Isabel Marant brought sweatpants "back", I've been wanting to incorporate them into my everyday wardrobe. With the recent revival of menswear and normcore, three's company to create my ideal look. By pairing an oversized but structured blazer and basic white tee with my favorite sweatpant/converse combo, I was able to create a perfect "business casual" look, if you will. The key is the keep it simple and tonal, juxtapose shapes to keep it from being too lumpy, and make sure your sweatpants have a nice cuff, too :) Check out some of my favorite options above to work sweats into your look outside the house.
