Inspired Denim
20 Mar
Shirt – Target
Capris – The Limited
Belt – The Limited
Necklace – ???
Why am I calling this look Inspired Denim? Because it was inspired by an outfit idea from The Gap:
It feels a little casual for a non-summer weekday in the office but since I don’t have any meetings I think it will fly.
One of the blogs I read (You Look Fab) HATES cropped pants. I, on the other hand, think they are a staple of office wear when you live in a city that gets hot and humid for a few months out of the year. And since our hot weather has shown up a bit earlier than usual so did the cropped pants.
How do you feel about cropped pants?

A reader recently contacted me and asked for help with a pair of ankle boots she just bought.
Right now I’m pretty happy with my closet. But even so there are days when I stand there and stare at all the hangers and think, “I wish I had….”
I’ve had all of these clothing pieces in my closet for a long time. I keep wavering on whether or not to keep the cardigan and then it keeps staying.
Pairing the fancy sequined skirt with a neutral colored cardigan and nude heels helps keep it from being too bling-y or overwhelming.
The fact that I paired two pieces that could be considered slightly casual but added heels and a blazer makes my outfit work appropriate without being traditional.




I like your interpretation! I want to try cropped pants. I wonder if my thighs are too large though. I tried that pair on in J. Crew and just wasn’t feeling it
I doubt they are too large! I think you just need to find a pair that aren’t quite as tapered.
Here are some ideas:
