    Target Plaid Pants: 5 Ways

    I was totally influenced by Jodie (JtouchofStyle) and Cammi (CammiAllen) to buy these pull on plaid pants when they shared them on Instagram. At 20 dollars and a non skinny cut, I just had to have them. I first wore them to a visit to the aquarium and thought about taking blog pictures (I would have needed just a few more) but we were all tired and did not want to get stuck in Atlanta traffic on the way home. So I put together a post to show their versatility but I did learn from my experience: while I like variety and coming up with interesting outfits, I really like…

    Cost per Wear: Finding Multiple Ways to Wear an Item

    A while back, I created a spreadsheet to keep track of how many times I wore something but I didn’t keep it up for long. Even though I do not keep track of how many wears I wear something, I do make sure that if I spent more than I usually do on an item, that I wear it a lot and find ways to wear it for more than one season of the year. This is the case of these Dahlia pants from XCVI that I shared a couple of weeks ago. I bought them with birthday money and with a coupon but I still feel like I need…

With Navy I shared this outfit in this May post after I bought the pants on clearance at Old Navy and I have been finding different ways to wear them ever since. With Yellow The pants have gold…

    Fab 40s: Inspired by Fire: Red Dress 6 Ways

    There is something really satisfying about knowing you have worn something many times and in different ways. A solid dress is a canvas with which you can play with accessories, layers and shoes and a dress with little extra details like this one is even more fun. This Target dress has been around for a couple of years now. At the time I wrote this post, it was only available in white and size medium and above. I did size up to a medium even though I usually size down in this brand because the bust was too tight in other sizes. The eyelet details, the ruffles, tassels and v-neck…
