Work:
Pants, Belt & Bracelets- Thrifted; Top- Loft; Shoes- Payless w/ Vintage Earrings; Purse- Gap; Necklaces- Dragon Moon & RW&CO; Ring- H&M I'm a huge fan of colours, the brighter the better but sometimes I'm in the mood for pastels. Last week I unearthed my thrifted Banana Republic pale blue pants (bought over 5 years ago) and took them from work to weekend, with just a change in accessories and shoes. I'm always amazed at how different styling can completely transform the same items of clothing. I really honed my remixing skills with Kendi Everyday's 30x30 challenge (which I really wish she would initiate again- maybe we should all petition!) |
I'm linking up to Inspiration Monday, where reality tv star Kristin Cavallari has me lusting over her purple pants (hmm wonder if I could thrift a pair?)

How do you take a look from work to weekend?
I love this look both ways! The pants are great and they fit you perfectly. The top is super fun too. And I can't decide which pair of shoes I like more, because they are both awesome!
ReplyDeleteUsually for work to weekend let's say I wore a skirt and while I might wear a dressier blouse with it for work, I'd wear a casual t-shirt with it on a weekend.
those are great pants! i love that color blue. love the sequined top with it and also when you incorporate red into the 2nd look. really nice!

ReplyDeleteLove both of these looks! I'm so inspired by the way you've worn sequins to work! And the blue pants are amazing - such a great closet find.

It's so great when you can take an outfit from one scene to another. Those pants are lovely and the sparkle in the tank is super fun for work. But the bright accessories and youthful pigtails really make the outfit great for the weekend too. Lovely!

Amazing how a few changes transformed your pants from workwear to weekend wear. :) Love the sequin tank and how you added color via the scarf, belt and shoes. :)
ReplyDeleteOoh, the accessories work really well! The trousers are great and I love how different the two outfits are! Brilliant! Sorry I am late to the IM party, I was out last night!
