FINALLY FRIDAY

Happy Friday!

This week felt insanely long so I'm going to keep things short and sweet over here today.

For this laidback look, I paired a strappy tank (under $15) with some classic striped shorts from last season and loafers from Vionic. To tie the look together, I wrapped in a striped hair scarf. The result? A classic look that works well for both day and night. A casual day at the office, happy hour, a beach day with friends—it works for all three!

Have a great weekend everyone!

I am constantly switching and changing my look before I head into the office in the morning. I'm convinced that it's got less to do with my outfit options and more to do with the fact that my imagination is pretty limited at 8 a.m. So to add a little inspo to your morning routine, here is a fresh workwear look from Banana Republic Factory. Not only is the jacket perfect for transitioning to spring, but the Devon Pant is sophisticated, comfy and endlessly versatile. With a flattering stretch fit that slims in all the right places and cropped leg, these look great with sneakers, knee-high boots, cropped sweaters and so much more. To top that off, they come in a wide variety of fabrics (bi-strech, suede, leather, denim) and colors! Bonus? They're great for adding a little polish to your basic tops and tees. For my casual dress code today, I tossed them on with a classic striped top and modern mules. If you're workplace is more formal, try pairing them with a blazer, printed tank and heels.

Shifting from weekend to work-mode can be tough. That’s why I think it’s important to kick things off with a refreshing look. In fact, I’ve discovered that the right outfit can reenergize your entire day. I used to dress how I felt. If I was tired, I’d keep things casual and if I was feeling great I’d wear my favorite pair of heels. Now, I try (as often as possible) to trick myself into feeling fresh, even on the days when I’d rather keep hitting the snooze button, by wearing something I’m excited about.

Enhancing your everyday style is pretty easy and can be as basic as adding a pop of color or a bold new statement necklace to your go-to getup. Today I paired one of my favorite winter tops from Chicwish with a colorful wool skirt from H&M. Together they offer a playfully polished approach to my typical workday ensemble.
