How To Wear A Printed Pencil Skirt

August 18, 2022 by Katie H.

6 outfit ideas with a printed pencil skirt

One piece of clothing that I always love to have in my wardrobe is a cute skirt. That’s why when I came across this printed pencil skirt from J.Crew Factory I knew I had to buy it. This skirt is the perfect skirt to style for fall. Last week I shared it in my fun fall teacher wardrobe capsule blog post, but this week I wanted to share it again with 6 different ways to wear it.

The Most Versatile Summer Sandals

June 6, 2022 by Katie H.

How to wear summer sandals

To splurge or not to splurge, that is the question, or at least that’s a question that I get asked from time to time. Can you splurge on fashion and still have an affordable wardrobe? If your budget allows it then, of course, it’s okay to splurge! Before you make a splurge purchase it’s important to think about the value that the item will hold in your wardrobe. If the value is high, meaning you will wear it all the time in multiple ways and it makes you feel good wearing it, then go for it!

How to Wear Overalls Over 35

May 23, 2022 by Katie H.

How to wear short overalls

I haven’t owned a pair of overalls since 8th grade, so when I saw that they were making a comeback, I was hesitant to join in on the trend. For a long time, I didn’t think I was cool enough or young enough to pull off overalls as an adult, but this is why I never say never when it comes to fashion because here I am buying overalls at 37. When I saw this pair of short denim overalls at Gap Factory, I decided to try them.

How to Wear a White Blazer for Spring

April 27, 2022 by Katie H.

How to wear a white blazer

One of my favorite pieces of clothing in my wardrobe is a blazer.  I absolutely love the look of a classic blazer with an outfit.  You can wear them in so many different ways and it always looks polished and put together.  I have a few different colors and styles of blazers, but one color I have had my eye out for is a white blazer.

Cute Rainy Day Outfit Ideas With Rain Boots

April 6, 2022 by Katie H.

Cute Rainy Day Outfit Ideas

I never thought that I would ever own a pair of Hunter rainboots. I just didn’t think that they fit into my wardrobe, plus they are expensive. With all the April spring showers we have been getting here in Michigan lately, I have been thinking that a cute pair of rain boots might be the perfect addition to my wardrobe.

Affordable Green Dress for the Holidays

December 15, 2021 by Katie Haller

 6 ways to style a green dress for the holidays

I wasn’t planning on sharing this dress in a blog post, but then I decided that it was just too good not to share as many times as I could.  Just when I thought that I was done shopping for the year, I saw this dress at Old Navy and because I am loaded up with super cash I decided to grab it. (Super cash gets me every time! 😂) I love the dress because it’s very basic.  On its own, it’s just a plain dress, but once you play around with it and add some layers and accessories it becomes this very cute fun little dress.

I have another round up of cozy outfits! I have to admit that I have been in a bit of a style rut! The lack of sunshine has made it really hard for me to feel motivated to get creative with my outfits and I've been finding myself repeating the same clothes over and over again. 

That's why this week I built each outfit around one piece in my wardrobe that I haven't worn in a while. I have a lot of clothes and sometimes rediscovering pieces that I love help my outfits feel more fun and creative!
