Closet Staple: Jean Jacket

Posted on

I have had this jacket for years and it is one of the most worn items in my closet.

I love that it can be paired with any dress, skirt or skinny jean combo and matches practically everything.

When purchasing a jean jacket look for:

1. A smaller size. A larger size or even your normal size, could add unnecessary bulk. Aim for one size smaller than you usually wear.

2. A lightweight fabric. A jacket that is softer will be easier to move in, give you a softer look and obviously be more comfortable. If possible, buy a used jacket for that already “lived-in” feel.

3. A medium-colored wash. This color will have the most versatility and will transcend trends, therefore extending the amount of time you’ll be able to wear it.

If you haven’t yet, you should consider adding a jean jacket to your wardrobe soon!

On The Street

Now I know there is a lot of controversy over denim on denim, but I think Courtney pulls the look off perfectly.

And I love how she added a scarf as a belt.

So simple, but so incredibly chic.

Maxi Dreams

Posted on

Have you ever dreamed of an article of clothing that you would like to add to your wardrobe, but don’t know where to get said article?

I have dreamed about a long, flowy maxi skirt in an orange-ish pink color for awhile, but couldn’t find one anywhere.

Well, the other night I was near a Styles for Less and I got a weird idea to check there. As I walked in, I immediately saw my dream maxi skirt hanging on the “Just Arrived” rack. I was beyond stoked that this piece of clothing that I “dreamed” up actually did exist!

It is incredibly comfortable and makes me feel so feminine.
