#OOTD – Casual Monday

The rain has finally stopped & the sun is shining bright.  The grass may still be wet but we’re taking advantage of this beautiful Monday!  Forget about the bubble mower, the swing set or even the cozy coupe car…our new obsession is walking up & down the steps.

For me, taking advantage of this beautiful day entails a cotton maxi dress & denim jacket accompanied by a layered necklace from StitchFix & my Lacoste wrap bracelet

#OOTD-Dressing My Mood

I love dressing my mood.  Whether it’s feminine florals, bohemian ikat prints or oversized boyfriend tees, dressing how I feel always makes me feel good.  I am able to live in the moment by looking how I feel.  This morning while making breakfast I decided I didn’t want to be overly comfortable today in my go-to leggings & slouchy tee.  I was feeling spunky, energetic & edgy.  So, I dressed the part…

Though dressing edgy doesn’t necessarily call for an all-black foundation, zippers & loud accessories, I was in the mood for it.

#OOTD – 1 Top, 4 Ways

I picked up this casual woven from Francesca’s on a whim at the beginning of the year.  It was an impulse buy I tucked into the closet and truthfully forgot about until today.  Surprise, surprise…I love this top!  I played around with how to wear it & was able to create four outfits with just this one piece.  Check them out below…

Casual meets comfort – I left the woven unbuttoned, layered a boyfriend tank underneath & threw on my straight leg jeans.  I added a slip-on flat & a touch of femininity with my flower burst necklace.

Clean lines – I transitioned this outfit to a more tailored look by knotting the hemline, cuffing the jeans & throwing on a high wedge sandal.

I then layered the woven overtop this Madewell shift dress.  A nice change from the usual cardigan or blazer.

Finally, it’s back to the basics.  My go-to finishing pieces are always a boyfriend blazer & my Tory Burch wedges, so why not pair them with the woven & jeans!
