With the first picture, I wanted to show that by changing your accessories, the whole outfit can change. The first picture with the smaller crossbody bag and wedges, is my conservative look. I need to be at a PTO meeting, picking up my kids, doing something that requires speed then the wedges are my go to shoes for that day. I want to wear something comfortable, that won’t hurt my feet or turn my ankle. The smaller crossbody makes me carry my essentials so I don’t have to dig around for this or that. I like this handbag for that reason because sometimes if I let go of my kid’s hand just for a second, she would go running off in a different direction. I like to think this particular outfit explains the “mom sensibility.”
The other pictures depict taller boots and a bigger handbag. I love how this outfit gives me a boost of confidence. The boots and the handbag with STUDS (my favorite detail at the moment) just has this different vibe. I usually wear this outfit for ladies night, or to a luncheon. I have gone to work like this too. I have worn this outfit too many times. It’s my go to outfit.
What is your go to outfit for a normal day?

I love the polished look of this outfit. It´s amazing how a suit elevates a look. 🙂
Fabulous outfit(s) — I have to try the whole cardi-under-blazer look, thanks for the inspiration! Those Seychelles boots…are they from a recent season or have you had them for a while? I love their versatile look!
I love studs too – I was browsing smoking shoes for my most recent Materialistic Mondays post and came across so many awesome accessories with grommets and studs…such a fun trend, isn’t it? 🙂
I have the Seychelles boots for a little over a year. It’s comfortable because of the platform. And I secretly adore the interior – it’s lined with a floral fabric that just makes me giddy. I recently saw the boots on gilt.com for $99 with free shipping. It had it in black and brown.
on a normal day when I am not heading to the office i prefer a simple sweater and jeans 🙂 yup…I like simple 🙂
Can I tell you how much I love the cardigan + blazer look? It makes it look like a 2-tone blazer – what a fabulous way to spruce it up! I can’t wait to try this out 🙂
Love your blog!
