Helping women love what they wear on a budget

Katie’s Closet~Weekend Wardrobe

March 16, 2014 by Katie Haller

I post a lot of my work outfits from the weekdays, but I don’t post many of my weekend outfits. The weekends are my days to play catch up. I usually run errands and spend time at home, so I like to be comfortable and casual, but still look cute. So here is my grocery store, errand running, casual Saturday look.
Striped Shirt- Old Navy
Skinny Jeans- Old Navy
Sweater- Target
Belt- Old Navy
Shoes- Toms- Nordstrom
Causal and comfortable, does not have to mean frumpy. How do you dress on the weekends?

My Closet~What I Wore This Week

March 7, 2014 by Katie Haller

It’s Friday and we all made it through the workweek. As you can probably tell, I’ve kind of given up on the “What I Wore Wednesday” post. My work weeks have been crazy busy, so Wednesdays are not the greatest days for me to sit and write a post. Instead, I’ll post my favorite outfits I wore during the week from my closet…Katie’s Closet.

My Closet~ What I Wore this Week

February 22, 2014 by Katie Haller

I tried to put together some new outfits this week. I get sick of wearing the same thing all the time. Shopping has been out of the question right now, so I again, I took a closer look inside my closet to see what I had to work with. Here are a couple outfits that I came up with this week.

My Closet~ What I Wore Wednesday

January 10, 2014 by Katie Haller

I know I’m a day late on posting my outfit, but I’ve been super busy this past week. I haven’t posted an outfit on Wednesday in a couple weeks, because it was New Years Day last week and Christmas the week before, but I do want to continue to post one every week. It challenges me to find new outfits in my closet every week. It’s not always easy to find old clothes and make them into a new outfit, but that’s my goal in order to stay thrifty.

My Closet~ What I Wore Wednesday

December 18, 2013 by Katie Haller

I haven’t posted anything for “What I Wore Wednesday” in a while. This has been for 2 reasons. First of all, I’ve been really busy and second of all, I haven’t really loved what I’ve been wearing. I guess I really haven’t felt that I’ve worn anything that special to work lately. I tend to repeat the outfits I like and I just don’t feel that there always worth sharing.


Well, I’m excited to say that I just got a promotion at work and I’m now the assistant director. This is something I’ve wanted for a long time. I really love working with children and I want to advance as much as I can in my career. This is just another step in accomplishing my career goals. There is a lot to learn in the position, but one thing that I feel is helpful in keeping my confidence up is to look the part. I like to wear something that I feel good in. Like I’ve said before, looking good and feeling good go hand and hand. When I’m at work I like to feel professional and cute at the same time.

Here’s what I wore this week.

I have always loved cardigan sweaters. Lately I’ve been wearing them buttoned up, which is an easy way to update the style and wear it in a new way!
