The Polished Pencil Skirt

Posted on by | 3 Comments

Most people think of a pencil skirt as nothing more than business attire.  While it is true that a well-fitting pencil skirt is perfect for the office, it is also true that this essential wardrobe staple is quite versatile and can be dressed up or down.  My go-to pencil skirt is a grey cotton-blend, which makes it comfortable and chic, but virtually any pencil skirt will work well with these outfit ideas.

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!

Faded Skinny Jeans & White Poplin

Paired with some Faded Skinny Jeans and gold accessories, the White Button-Up looks polished yet casual.

This is a simple and polished look, with black pants, black boots and white leg-warmers paired with the classic shirt.  Add a pop of color underneath and it also stays fun.

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.
