Inspired by The Stylo Rouge: Oversized Blazer with Denim Skirt

February 12, 2024 /

All I can say is great minds think alike! Both Jodie and I thought it would be great to replicate Ashley’s outfit in a blog post so we decided to do so together! So you get 3 looks in one post today. Both Jodie and I borrowed something from our husband’s closet and I borrowed one thing from my son!

I love the texture in Ashley’s boots and wool blazer, as well as the hem on her denim skirt. Since I do not have an oversized blazer, I borrowed my 13 year old’s blazer (it is still too big for him so he’s never worn it). I do not have a white button down either so I borrowed my husband’s: it is definitely oversized on me but I tucked it in some and I really like how my copycat look turned out.

My belt is thrifted and the texture reminded me of Ashley’s boots. My light wash denim skirt with the split is very similar to hers too. I think the blazer is navy but the black in the boots is a near match. I pulled out a pair of sunglasses and took my pictures against my house and the neighbor’s to mirror her background too.

I’ve been trying to diversify and add to my earring collection this past year and I picked up this pair at a local boutique. Inexpensive but they make a nice statement.

I actually broke a pair of sunglasses that day, so I will be stopping by TJmaxx to pick up another pair. I like to have a couple on hand and I have a $5 coupon for Tjmaxx I got from Fetch (scanning my receipts). We’ve had some delightful sunny days last week!

These posts are really fun to photograph and I know my son was quite happy with taking pictures for 2 blog posts on this day: 10 minutes of work for some easy money in his pocket. I cannot wait for him to get a real job and see how work actually is. He’s been very successful at school and busy, so he hasn’t had a real job yet but I am excited for the day he does!

And now for the quote from the 13 year old: mom, you look like a pilot in this outfit!
