All Black with a Bright Hue
When looking for inspiration for spring blog posts, I came accross this website PureWow and this article with 31 Outfit Ideas to try in March. I took a few screenshots of outfits I knew I could replicate with pieces from my closet. As you know, I love to shop my closet in new ways and make the most of what I have. Here is what I came up with: I thought of my bright blue jacket right away with its sheen and cut and of course all black is easy to come by in my closet. I figured my black joggers paired with my black bodysuit would be a fun…

Inspired by The Stylo Rouge: Oversized Blazer with Denim Skirt
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! Here is the link to Ashley’s blog post 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…

Inspired by Doused in Pink: Leather, Tan and Combat Boots
I have been inspired to replicate several of Jill’s (Doused in Pink) outfits over the years. One of them even included this same poncho here. You can see a look with plaid pants here and a rainbow skirt here. I love getting an idea on how to wear what I already have in a new way and that usually happens through a photo on IG or on Pinterest. I didn’t realize how much I would enjoy wearing these skinny liquid leather pants from Clara Sunwoo! I started by thinking they would be more for dressy events, but turns out they are really perfect for daily outfits. Such a fun soft…

Inspired by Jacqui at Mummabstylish
When I first started blogging 4 years ago, I used to find it difficult to come up with weekly fashion posts but this past year, I have been very inspired! I have been writing posts in advance as I come up with ideas for outfits shopping my closet, wearing a new piece or being inspired to put an outfit together after seeing a fun outfit on someone. I’ve also been gifted pieces this year and have typically shared those items on the blog too. Last month, I shared an outfit inspired by Cammi (read here) and today, my inspiration came all the way from the UK when Jacqui shared an…

Inspired by Cammi Happy Place
I love it when I get inspired to shop my closet and replicate an outfit that is comfortable and cute to wear. Whenever that happens I take a screenshot to remind myself to put that outfit together. This summer, Cammi shared this cute outfit on IG and on her blog in this post. Surprisingly I had never put these specific pieces together and it was a perfect summer outfit for me to wear for errands and around the house. Above is Cammi and heere is my version of her outfit! All of these pieces have been in my closet for a year or more and are worn very frequently. This…

A Neutral Outfit Inspired by this Blonde Shopping Bag
KellyAnn from ThisBlondeShoppingBag has been sharing some outfits on IG that she has been inspired to recreate from Pinterest. As I see these, I have been taking a screenshot to remind me to recreate them myself. Earlier this month, the following outfit really appealed to me so I went through my closet to find what I had that was similar. I knew my pants were very similar to hers which is why the outfit caught my eye. Mine are from Target a year or two ago, and this year I used fabric glue to create a hem as they were really long on me. I only have one pair of…

Inspired by Jill and Monochromatic Cream Outfit Inspiration
When Jill (from Doused in Pink) shared an outfit with a cream shacket and plaid pants, I knew I could recreate it with items in my closet. I wore the shacket in a monochromatic cream outfit that I really liked the same day I read her blog post (here). I then decided to photograph that outfit as well to give you another styling idea. This cream shacket will also be featured for the Ageless Style Link Up on Thursday too. You are getting 3 inspiration outfits for wearing a solid cream topper! Inspired by Jill I had forgotten how comfortable these plaid pants from Target wear. I bought these last…

Inspired by Ada of Elegance and Mommyhood
Last month Ada and I shared a monthly series of featuring 12 skirts. I have found myself reaching for them over and over and I was surprised how many I had once I counted them (29). About half were thrifted and I would say 3/4 are 3 years and older (that makes me feel better about that number).,Today I am sharing a look inspired by one of the ones Ada shared: I think finding different ways to wear something is fun so here is another skirt as a dress outfit! This look of Ada’s may not be on her blog yet as she is catching up on publishing her posts…

Inspired by Looks for Spring
On Saturday, I decided to proofread Monday’s post (this one) to realize I actually had not written it! I have been cranking out blog posts and scheduling them as inspiration strikes and had the pictures for this post but lo and behold, I had not written it. This inspired by post was inspired by Dawn from Just doing my Best and Debi from A Beautiful Second Act. What I usually do is snap a screenshot when I come across an outfit I like and feel I can reproduce in some manner and it just turned out that each had two within a time period that inspired me. Wide Leg Denim…

Inspired by Jess: Preloved from Head to Toe
A few weeks ago, I took a pictures of one of Jess’ outfits (Elegantly Dressed and Stylish) because I thought it would be a perfect outfit for me to replicate one spring day. What I didn’t realize was that each similar item that I had was actually thrifted or a hand me down. How cool is that! I even took pictures in my neighborhood next to a flowering tree which is reminiscent of where she took her pictures. This is not the first time I have replicated one of Jess’ outfits (see here). I already have an idea for next month Inpired by post and it is also one inspired…
