Velvet Joggers: 5 ways
I am all about versatility in my closet so when I picked up these velvet joggers at Kohls before the holidays, I wanted to share that they do not need to be relegated to being worn one month of the year or for special occasions but they can be worn at any time. So today I am sharing a few dressy ways to wear them as well as some casual looks. Since I had to change after each picture, we took these pictures around the house instead of a pretty location. Frenchie One of my husband’s uncles has always called me Frenchie! And with this pretty tunic and my beret,…

Inspired by Jodie to Style my Yellow Plaid Cardigan 3 ways
A few months ago, Jodie (Jtouchofstyle) shared a yellow plaid cardigan from BelongUSAstyle that she paired with her camo pants. In her post, she shares 5 ways to style those pants but the yellow plaid cardigan really stuck in my mind. When it went on sale during the Christmas season I decided to order it in hopes that I would enjoy it as much as she did. I knew I could pair it with my camo jeans but that it probably would pair with many other things in my closet. With our mild winters (most of the time), I can wear it 3 season out of the year! Here is…

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…

Floral Pants: 5 Ways
It is quite easy to come up with 5 ways to wear something when it is a neutral or a solid color. Is it as easy when it is a pair of printed pants? I found that it was not difficult at all for me to come up with 5 different ways to wear one of my favorite pair of pants I bought this year: my Old Navy pixie ankle skinny pants. 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…
