Outfit Ideas | Weekend Errand Running

April 14, 2016

I threw on this look last weekend for a morning of errands.

I debated about boyfriend jeans a long time before I purchased my first pair because I just wasn’t sure that the slouchy look worked with my petite frame. However, when I came across these J.Crew boyfriend jeans on Poshmark for $7 (!), I jumped at the opportunity to try them.

And now you can’t get them off of me! It’s kind of a nice break to not have your legs on complete display for the world and more importantly, they are just so darn comfy! This particular pair is pretty old, but I linked a few other options below.

Outfit Ideas | Cream Lace & Distressed Denim

White and lace definitely scream spring to me so when I found this lace top while browsing ThredUp the other day, I immediately snagged it and am so glad I did.

I pretty much stalk ThredUp daily to see what new designer pieces they’ve added and of course, if they have any new Joie pieces as well–I just can’t get enough!

I also make sure to filter only the new or like-new pieces just to make sure I’m getting the highest quality possible. This shirt looks like it’s new!

Outfit Ideas | Utility Vest & Faux Leather

As I mentioned earlier this week, this utility vest is definitely part of my spring uniform. I’ve been pairing it with these floral pants, with dresses–pretty much anything and everything!

It is such an easy way to elevate any outfit and to meet the “3-piece” rule to always look put together when really, all you’re wearing is leggings, a t-shirt, and tennis shoes. Comfy casual is definitely the way to go in my book.

As much as I love these shoes, they’re getting pretty old and are really drafty so it’s hard to wear them unless it’s warm outside. I’ve linked up a few other pairs of slip-on shoe options below that I’m considering as replacements!

Utility Vest: Target

Graphic Tee: J. Crew Factory

Faux Leather Leggings: Stitch Fix (seen here)

Slip-Ons: Blowfish Shoes

Outfit Ideas | Spring Uniform

Outfit Ideas | Spring Uniform

We kicked off spring on Sunday with a dreary cold day here, but on days where it actually has been feeling more springlike, this outfit has been my go-to uniform.

This Target utility vest is definitely a must have. The quality isn’t amazing but the fit is and I love having it to layer over pretty much everything. My go-to layering item has been this J.Crew Factory striped tee, another one of my favorite items.

In fact, pretty much everything in this look is one of my favorite things in my closet. I’ve been really focusing on paring down my wardrobe lately and only keeping items that I absolutely love, and I guess it’s working!

Outfit Ideas | Winter Simplicity

Outfit Ideas | Winter Simplicity

Joie is a brand that I’ve quickly grown to love. All of their pieces just have that blend of California casual mixed with a simple chic-ness that I cannot get enough of.

Luckily, I’ve been able to snag a few pieces second hand, like these pants, since the regular prices are a bit steep for this student budget.

I’ve definitely been navigating towards simplicity in outfits even more lately, as a way to combat this winter I guess!

White Blouse: Loft (really similar)

Green Cargo Pants: Joie

Gold Flats: J. Crew

Rose Gold Watch: Michael Kors

Brown Tote: Nordstrom (so similar–and with a tassel!) Other Joie Pieces I Love:

This outfit has been one of my go-to winter outfits. Cozy oversized sweater, Paige jeans (distressed when I can handle the little bit of cold getting through!), pop of color with my J.Crew cobalt jacket, and now, my Rebecca Minkoff bag.

I wore this this past weekend to head up to Charlottesville for the day and since it was going to 50 degrees (!), I slipped on my lace-up flats as well. These Christian Siriano for Payless version are a fun and cheap option, but I’ve also linked up a few other versions below. I have my eye on the light pink studded ones for spring!
