Helping women love what they wear on a budget

Katie’s Closet~What I Wore this Week

October 18, 2014 by Katie Haller

I’ve been working way too much lately.  On an average day, I am at work anywhere between 10 and 11 hours.  I won’t get into any details, but let’s just say I look forward to making a change when I move.  There is one thing I love about my job… and that is finding new looks to wear to work.  I literally look forward to getting dressed in the morning.  (I know, I don’t have much of a life) I never liked having to wear a uniform to work.  I know that some people prefer not having to think when they wake up and get ready, but I like to be creative when I get dressed in the morning.  When I’m wearing something cute, I feel confident and ready to take on anything that comes my way. 

Here are the outfits that helped me get through this week.
Monday
Black dress- Target
Scarf- Charming Charlies
Cardigan- Target
Boots- Target
Tuesday
Black Jeggings- TJ Maxx
Blazer- Kohls

My Closet~Weekend Wardrobe

October 4, 2014 by Katie Haller

I just love putting together a Saturday outfit. There is no dress code on a Saturday.  Today was a cool, cloudy, fall day.  It’s the perfect day to have no plans at all. 
Here is my lazy Saturday outfit…

Checkered button down with boyfriend cardigan
Grey Sweater- Target
Checkered button-down- Target
Jeans- Old Navy
Boots- DSW
I just love this look. The checkered button-down is a new purchase. I’ve been looking for a shirt like this for a while now.  When I found it in my size on clearance at Target, I had to get it.  I have at least 4 of these Boyfriend Cardigans from Target.  They are always a good price and they are great for layering your clothes.  
This was just the perfect fall look for the weekend.

As promised, I’m embracing the fall weather, starting with one of my favorite things about fall…the clothes! I’ve heard people complaining lately about the cooler days, but not me.
