Something Old, Something New

Keeping Up With the Casual

Guys!!! I've got another outfit post, and this time I kept it casual.  I am definitely not one to complain about the weather, especially since I really didn't get to experience a hot summer this year.  So I am beyond grateful for this nice, autumnal weather.  Absolute perfect weather for layering, or simply adding a jumper if you get a bit cold.

Here I paired a "boyfriend" jumper with a very old pleated leather-like skirt that I scored at H&M several years ago.  I am also wearing my absolute favorite slides.  My black canvas tote is actually gifted from the Boy by Boy LC:M 2016 presentation show.

Although this look is very understated, I feel that it's still impactful and perfectly encapsulates where I am currently in my life.  Freelancing allows me to be rather casual most days because I have the luxury of working from home.  I don't have to dress up for an office job anymore, and I think now my true personal style will shine through.

Cozy Up in Chunky Knits - Buy It Off My Back

Hey guys, since returning home I have been taking long hard looks at my wardrobe and trying to assess what's really necessary.  Although it is my job as a personal stylist to do wardrobe detoxes with my clients, I have come to realize that I need to do one on myself.  While in London, I lived on about an 8th of my wardrobe.  Everything was limited and minimal, and I was just fine.  So now I am forced to look at all of my items that I didn't take, and consider ridding myself of them because I was just fine without them.

This lovely knit dress was an item that was left behind.  And although it was preloved and I enjoyed styling it and wearing during chilly months...I managed to live for a long time.  Here I styled my blue sweater dress with a chunky knit sweater, and my go to pair of Zara mules.  Chic, right??  There are countless ways to wear this dress because it is so simple and versatile.  This dress is a wardrobe staple.  It would give a completely different look if you wore it would a fun pair of sneakers and a nice, bright bomber jacket, or make it more professional by adding a blazer and heels.
