The Bountiful Blazer

Posted on by | 2 Comments

The blazer, much like the white button-up shirt and the grey pencil skirt, is often used only as business attire.  However, this wardrobe staple can easily dress up any outfit.  A well tailored blazer can even offer feminine curves to an otherwise shapeless ensemble.   My blazer of choice is a navy, single-button blazer with rolled sleeves.

The Crisp, Clean and Classic White Button-Up

Posted on by | 1 Comment

A fitted White Button-Up shirt is an essential piece of any stylish wardrobe because it is incredibly versatile and can easily elevate the “classy” perception of an outfit.  The white button-up shirt makes almost any outfit look well thought out and well put together.  Here are just a few of my favorite ways to wear this classic piece.  Remember, almost all of these outfits can be tailored to what is already in your closet.  Just get creative!

7 & 8 Cute with Khakis

A plain white shirt and khaki pants don’t have to be bland as long as you know how to make pieces pop.  The Black floral belt gives the outfit and cute focal point.  The aqua cardigan adds the perfect pop of color to the ensemble.
