Make a statement on your day off!

Make a statement on your day off! by fitfashlife featuring a pink metallic purse

Long sleeve knit cardigan / White cotton blouse / Zara jeans / Charles Philip Shanghai loafer, $76 / Oasis pink metallic purse, $11 / Kate Spade watch / Stella & Dot blue chain necklace / Stella & Dot earrings

I had Columbus Day off and was running errands all day, and heading to an appointment so I wanted to still look put together, but not be "work dressed".  I'm loving this Stella & Dot statement necklace, it's the type you can throw on with a t-shirt and jeans and you just added that extra ooomph! Kept the other accessories basic and threw on a pair of comfortable loafers.  This outfit can be worn for a coffee date, headed to your kid's soccer game, or to your PTA meeting.
Where would you wear this outfit?

LOFT Striped Flare Dress

LOFT Striped Flare Dress by fitfashlife featuring a square bracelet

LOFT dress / ASOS flat soled shoes / Steve Madden wedge / Enzo Angiolini patent shoes / Lacoste handbag / Oasis handbag, $11 / Kate Spade two tone jewelry / Forever 21 square bracelet / Kate Spade hand crafted jewelry / C. Wonder yellow gold jewelry

Love this LOFT Striped Flare Dress.  You can wear it for a wedding or you can dress it down for lunch.  I chose supercute wedges or loving those tassel sandals as your lunch option, depending if your running errands before/after.  I kept the jewelry dressy and bright for a wedding option, and more simple for the lunch option.  This past week, LOFT dresses were 40% off, so I'm going to wait until they have that sale again or similar, and def get this dress!  You can totally dress this down even more with a light chambray shirt tied up, or dress this up even more with fun pearl bunched necklace!  There's so many options with this dress!

Can't be more Spring!

Can't be more spring! by fitfashlife featuring camisole tops

LOFT camisole top / H&M h m, $39 / LOFT ankle length pants / Chinese Laundry metallic shoes / Oasis metallic handbag, $11 / Kate Spade post earrings / Forever 21 square bangle

After a much needed hiatus.... I'm back b*tches!  Looking forward to posting some awesome Spring pieces I have found.  Lots of bright color, structured pieces and items that def make a statement!  
This Spring, don't be afraid to rock a white blazer.  I would wear this to dinner mostly.  Simple reason being: out at a bar. drinks flowing. spilling. dancing. more spilling. you get the point.  Sit down and sip your cocktail and not be afraid of the drunkard next to you will make a smooth move past you and stain that "used to be all white" blazer.  Dinner item for sure!  Loving this coral lace top from The Loft.  Change the look with a different colored tank top underneath. Dress it down with a chambray top over it.

Coral and Navy

Coral and Navy by fitfashlife featuring gold button earrings

Pocket shirt / Ponte knit blazer / Navy blue pencil skirt / Dorothy Perkins snake print heels / Oasis ballet shoes flat, $45 / Zipper bag / Stella & Dot jewelry / ASOS spike jewelry / MICHAEL Michael Kors gold button earrings

This outfit might be one of my favorites. It's perfect for work, (as I work in a corporate setting), but I still can show my personality through a bright color and fun pump, with a little rocker jewelry.  All paired together, yet not too much.  I held back from adding a statement necklace, instead used these fun bangle/cuffs. I'm a fan of this navy purse too... might have to be a Xmas gift, from me to me! HA

Now if only hubby would read any of my posts, he easily would have my Xmas/Bday wishlist right in front of him to pick from! :)  But, I can only dangle the carrot so much......... :/

Dark purple for fall... incorporating summer trends!

dark purple for fall by fitfashlife featuring stretch cotton pants

I'm hearing that dark purple will be the "go to" Fall color this coming season so I wanted to give you an example of how you can style it with some of your items you had bought that were trendy this summer.  Get a few more uses out of them.  I changed the shoes for "work" and for "play".

Enjoy your weekend!!

The Perfect Blazer

While doing a little online browsing, I came across this Nordstrom's Gibson Blazer and thought it would be perfect to add to my wardrobe after the wedding.  Priced at $88, it's cheaper than Zara Blazers and to me, just as nice.  It comes in green, tan, white, orange and blue.  All colors perfect for spring!  Super cute polka dots on the rolled up sleeves!  Dress this down with jeans and a statement necklace or dress it up for work with a button down and pencil skirt or skinny trousers or over a dress.

I went ahead and made an example for ya.  All prices are pretty reasonable too!  This I would wear Casual Friday at work.
