Another blog of your where you use a elastic band to tie your top and tuck it over a dress (floral dress, light pink oversized top), simply love it and even tried with my clothes. Usually special occasion dresses and foot wear live in our closet for years but never comes out after that one special occasion, I really like the way you give great ideas to rethink about them. Another example of your creativity is that you refer to the foot wear you used in the previous blog, which you also used for your wedding (with awesome DIY). You make the readers to thing creative by sharing your tips and tricks, for example, I have this Banana Republic shirt but I haven’t thought of wearing that as a Casual outfit until I read this (it’s my opinion, I know lot of them are creative already). This is the reason why I want to mention this to you, that your blogs are unique and at the same time affordable by a very large community of people. l also follow other bloggers but few bloggers (like Wendy’s lookbook, I love her youtube videos for affordable outfit ideas) have reached to a point that they are only blogging outfits that are in the range of 100s of dollars now, which is very hard for me to find in my closet or even can’t even effort to buy them. I really like the way you present simple combinations of pieces that every girl can effort to, a middle class girl like me can follow your blogs and convert my wardrobe versatile for my daily needs. Hi Jean, I'm Haritha from SF, would like to tell you why I love your postings. The one at Talbots is the smaller size ( see on me), and their bigger Caracas tote is on sale too. #Gucci disco bag fullPS – speaking of bags, saw my Mar Y Sol straw pom pom tote on sale at Tabots and had to share! I got this tote last year at full price and always get compliments on it while at the beach / on vacation, plus I like the story behind their handcrafted pieces. I also wanted to show a pic of how I’ve looped up the excess end, but other, sleeker, solutions are to use either double-sided tape or tiny clear hair elastics to secure the flapping strap end down. In this post I have the prong about 2 inches past the shortest hole that comes punched on the strap. White ( Neiman’s still has the color in stock) would’ve been my first choice if I didn’t already have my Celine, as there’s just something about the combination of white pebbled leather and tassels! A problem with both the disco and chain styles is the straps are longer than my liking, even with the adjustable factor on this one. The neutral tan color I have is sold out at several stores, but still currently available at either Gucci or Luisa Via Roma (duty/tax free). I’ve been eying Gucci’s Soho bags for a while, both in this rectangular leather strap “disco” version and also the adorable little round “chain” one. The retro camera bag silhouette and large tassels lend a vintage vibe which I love in my purses. And since I still always get questions, here is a video tutorial with my secret to the topknot hair bun! They help frame the face both with updo’s or hair down, and are long enough to put up or tuck behind the ears. My hairstylist finally convinced me to do some shorter pieces around the face, and I have to admit I’ve been loving it. I’m a creature of habit when it comes to hair and always ask for long layers…mostly to make sure I can throw everything up in a ponytail with no stragglers left behind. As mentioned in earlier posts, J Brand’s Alana style comes with a 27″ inseam for no hemming necessary on fellow shorties, and the Maria style is the same “vanity” material and cut, but longer for leggier ladies. These jeans are probably the most shapely pair in my closet, thanks to the high-waist, the holding power of the stretchy fabric, and of course the slimming black color. Here’s a few older posts showing these pieces styled differently in other outfits: JBrand jeans, BR button-up, Sole Society block-heeled sandals ( here and here). For example, tucking your shirt into high-waisted bottoms and adding a knotted jacket gives off a super laid-back feel, versus wearing the shirt long and un-tucked like a tunic, then layering the cropped jacket on top which creates a different vibe. Small tweaks in styling can help change up the look of the same old items. Some of my favorite outfits continue to be remixes of the most basic pieces. JBrand jeans in vanity sz 24, Banana Republic shirt ( similar), similar white denim jacket, Sole Society sandals c/o ( similar), Gucci Soho Disco bag, Baublebar “Y” necklace
