Outfit of the Day

A couple of you told me you want to see more outfit posts after posting the Sunday Best photos. Without further ado, here’s a post for ya!

The other day was relatively warm out, so I ditched my winter coat (probably a bad decision because 43 isn’t really warm) and wore my light, khaki jacket instead. I got that back in 2008 guys. 2008! And I’m still wearing it six years later. But I think it looks good still, so who cares?

I bought some bright pink lipstick a couple weeks ago and it’s officially my favorite makeup purchase ever. But I normally only buy Almay makeup from the grocery store, so I guess I don’t have much expertise!

Another piece to this ensemble is my necklace which is from The Limited… surprise, surprise! I got it on clearance with an additional 50% off in the store. Major score.

My pink collared top is a nice transition piece from Winter to Spring. It’s long sleeve, but the neon color brightens up a drag wool sweater. I’m a huge fan of Mindy Kaling and on her Instagram feed, she’s always buttoning the top button of her buttonups. T.J.’s been doing this for years, so I don’t know why it took me so long to try it out. But Mindy gave me the extra style motivation that I needed to give it a try! Thanks, Mindy… can we be best friends now?

And finally, my kicks. Back in the day, I worked on an advertising competition in college and it was for Diesel. My brother surprised me with these shoes since they were from Diesel — he wanted to support me and the project. Pretty awesome brother, right? (Wish I could work on a Michael Kors competition right now… maybe he’d send me some MK gear? 🙂 ) Anyway, I think they are a perfect pick for a a casual day in the city, when you are walking a lot but still want to look nice.
