Proper Pleats

Some people despise shopping for work, I love it. I think it's like playing dress up. Corporate barbie, casual cool, or fashion forward. I especially love trying something out of the box that shouldn't work but it does; like pattern mixing, culottes, or pleats! Today let's look at some super chic pleated pants that will turn heads for all of the right reasons at the office.

Macy's, Calvin Klein Pleated Trousers, $64

Command the room in these sleek pants. Picture it with a silk blouse.

Nordstrom, Topshop Peg Leg Trouser, $48

I'd mix these casual pants with heels and a neck scarf.

Brooks Brothers, Wool Drawstring Pants, $148 $44

Tell me where else you find a wool trouser for under fifty bucks. Gorgeous.

Banana Republic, Avery Fit Jacquard Pleated Pant, $98 $48

A great cropped pant that is fantastic for warmer weather and even through fall. 

A pleated pant has such an old-school professionalism vibe that you can't help but feel a little Mad Men in them.

Legs for Days

I love patterned tights because they give personality to an otherwise demure accessory. Colors, prints, not always my thing, but a great pattern, and I'm talking beyond fishnet, is so much fun for work.

Nordstrom, Commando Colette Tights, $36

Hello glamour. 

Express, Polka Dot Full Tights, $10

You know I love some dots and I love the price even more.

Ann Taylor, Scalloped Tights, $20

A great scallop hem is so sweet, I love it even more with tights!

Lord & Taylor, Zac Posen Stripe Patterned Tights, $13

A great stripe that will look even better with a wool pencil skirt.

Dress up your legs this winter with a fun pattern that makes your outfit stand out! Try dots, stripes, lace, anything that catches your eye.

Beautiful Boucle

It's still sweater weather and about this time of year I need a refresh on my closet. I love my sweaters, but midway (hopefully) through winter I need to add a couple to reinvigorate my drawers. Right now I love boucle sweaters. They are a fun throwback that are so ridiculously comfortable that you can't not love them.

Uniqlo, Women Boucle Crewneck Sweater, $19

A cozy throwover sweater for under twenty bucks? Sign me up.

Loft, Lou & Grey Easy Boucle Sweater, $54

Great relaxed neckline makes this sweater easy to dress down with jeans or leggings.

Gap, Slouchy Boucle Sweater, $34

Could this girl be more casual cool? I think not. And this sweater is half off.

Asos, Warehouse Boucle Crew Sweater, $57

And now for a baby blue. So soft and sweet. I love this with plaid.

Boucle's long loops give it a cozy, almost chenille texture. This makes for maximum comfort.

Rosy Disposition

Happy Monday lovebugs,
I thought we should start this week with something shiny. No, not jewelry. Rose gold shoes. Right? So unexpected and fun! Let's look at a mix of sneakers for casual and heels for a night out.

Need Supply Co., Classic Slip-On, $60

How great are these shoes? Classic Vans style with a feminine twist.

Asos, London Rebel Rose Gold Kitten Heel, $46

OMG these shoes. I love these shoes. Short block heel and rounded toe. 

Neiman Marcus, Kate Spade New York Keds Glitter Sneaker, $75

Speaking of girly. Gotta love some glitter with a ribbon lace. 

Amazon, Blue by Betsey Johnson Sandal, $89

Something to look forward to for summer. Such a great shoe with jeans or to wear to a wedding.

Have some fun when playing with metallics, try some rose gold on your feet!
