tuesday (challenged: khaki blazer)

 

 american eagle blazer {temporarily swapped}  banana republic skirt {thrifted}
fossil button-down   merona cardigan {thrifted new}
gold flower necklace {temporarily swapped}   xhilaration rosette flats

this week my friend whitney from between the lines and i will be participating in a challenge to style some of each other's clothes that we get stuck wearing the same way over & over.  i am glad that she sent me this blazer to style, as i don't have many blazers in my wardrobe that i wear that often as anything other than an outerwear layer.  since the piping of the blazer is navy, it may feel a little safe to pair it with a navy skirt, but i love how the full & flowy skirt is balanced out by the structured blazer.  whitney also sent me this great necklace to wear this week--hopefully it's not too hidden underneath all the layers i was already wearing!

after work, my coworkers and i met for happy hour, which was much needed after a phone conversation i had leading up to quittin' time.  i work with such great women and it's so awesome that we can meet up outside of work and continue to strengthen our team through fellowship!  it does make for a long day, though... i'm nearly ready for bed!  have a good evening!
