the coatigan

{Coatigan: Target | Chambray: Gap | Jeans: Old Navy | Shoes: Anthropologie | Bag: Similar}

As usual I was shopping the aisles of Target for necessities when of course I got distracted by the pretty baubles and eye-catching fabrics NOT in the necessity aisle. I had recently put a "coatigan" (part cardigan, part coat) on my "want-to-buy" list and lo behold, look at what I found at Target...a coatigan. And to be honest, I love it so much more than the ones on my list. I love the drape, I love the colors and I love the belt. Throw on a chambray shirt, some jeans, the standard red lip and some pretty, patterned loafers and what do you know, you have a picture perfect outfit. 

Gotta love that Target or should I say, women love it, husbands hate it. If that's not an rousing endorsement I don't know what is.

dusty coral and forest green

Lately I've been in a rut when it comes to getting dressed. Maybe it's because only a quarter of my clothes fit. Maybe it's because I have so many clothes stuffed in my teeny, tiny closet I can't even move the hangers. Maybe it's because I can't clean out said closet because well, if I were to clean it out today I would get rid of ALL my clothes because they don't fit. See the dilemmas of being a fashion blogger and having a baby?

But now for the good news. I was paging through magazines prior to a haircut looking for something good to read and I picked up a special edition of Lucky. It has 100 perfect outfits and let me tell you they are darn near perfect. Every morning I casually peruse the magazine (while my children are screaming at me) until I land on the right inspiration. Then I walk over to my closet (the teeny, tiny one) and discover my perfect outfit.

This look is inspired by an outfit of forest green and dusty coral. Unfortunately, I don't have any dusty coral but I do have coral (close enough in my book). And I love the way it turned out. I never would have reached into my closet and grabbed these two colors but I'm glad I did.

What's inspiring you to dress these days?

told you I'm feeling peachy!

Clearly I'm feeling peach huh? I mean I did a post about this color yesterday and here I'm wearing every single peach colored thing I own. I'm loving it! 

And how about my new haircut? It's one of the best haircuts I've had in ages. I swear I've done something different with it every single day (well, almost) because it's so much fun to play with! And I feel like it's way more modern than what I had before. It's fresh and stylish. And if you can't tell I love it. 

So I guess I'm loving a lot these days...peach and my hair.

weekend wear: minty fresh!

{Pants | Top | Sunglasses | Earrings | Purse | Sandals}

I am so ready for the weekend...how about you guys? I adore everything about this look from those perfectly printed pants to the touch of coral to those adorable heeled sandals. Can you believe those pants are from Old Navy? I want them oh so bad! So cute!

I hope you have a wonderful weekend and I will see you back here on Monday as usual!

saturday style: winter brights

{Blazer | Bracelets | Pants | Clutch | Sweater | Flats}

In sticking with yesterday's theme, here is a great outfit that uses color in a perfectly wintry way. Now I'm brainstorming real hard to figure out how I can recreate this gorgeous look with pieces from my own closet! The only problem is I don't have that fabulous leopard clutch!

I hope you have a wonderful weekend. Stay warm! And I"ll see you back here Monday!
