Everyday Clothes
When I graduated college, I really started putting my “professional” wardrobe together…I had my work clothes, and I had my other clothes. But as I got older, I realized that I wanted to look polished all the time…not just for work. So I stopped buying t-shirts, and started buying tops that not only look good with jeans, but that could also be dressed up for a business causal look. I need my clothes to function for work and for play. This floral blouse (a recent thrifted find…it was a BIG score that day and I’ll be sharing the other pieces soon!) looks appropriate with jeans at the pumpkin farm. And it will look equally great with dress pants or a pencil skirt and heels.

I think we all go through this stage… I’m just now entering into mine where I’m weeding out all my tees and trying to build a “real” wardrobe.

The jacket is something I would love to add to my closet. Love! Thanks for the reminder that everyday doesn’t have to be boring.
LOVE that jacket. It’s exactly the type of piece I’m on the hunt for right now.
Looks great! It’s a very nice floral pattern. You look fabulous.
Great look! I love that top! It can easily go from play to work!

I totally agree about the work clothes vs free time clothes. I think nice & comfy sweaters, and fitted blouses can be worn either way, so your thrifted shirt is a great find!
I have a ahrd time buying tops. Im never sure whats the best cut for me and believe me I like looking polished at all times too!
I have a giveaway going on if you’re interested!

I love the blouse – it’s inspiring me to go thrifting!
And I completely agree about collecting more put-together clothes for everyday life – not just work. After being out of college 5 years, I feel like I’ve FINALLY got a hang of finding clothes that I can wear to work AND the rest of the time.
The top>>jacket>>earrings>>sunglasses combo is awesome. So pretty!
