Friday Night Lights




What I'm wearing:

*anthropologie Flipside Blazer (similar here)
*H&M Polka Dot Tie Top (similar here)
*Joie Willa Skirt in Stain (similar here)
*Bandolino Black Patent Flats
*Louis Vuitton Monogram Speedy 30

The blazer + blouse combination has always felt just a little too corporate for me. But when the blazer is made out of soft jersey, and the blouse is a fun polka dot print, I feel like it has a much relaxed look. I'm still so grateful that my new office is casual and I can pretty much wear whatever I want! I like that this outfit can transition easily from the work day to happy hour.


These Bandolino flats are my new favorite find (besides my New Balance for NW sparkly flats of course). I needed to replace my beloved Taryn Rose black patent flats after a certain adorable puppy chewed them up, and these were at a great price point (30% off at ShoeWoo!) and I am wearing them for the first time today and they are so comfortable! I was really surprised, I just threw them on and was hoping for the best (and packed some Band-Aids just in case) but they fit great even on the first wear.

Is everyone excited for the holiday weekend? I know I am. Any fun plans? I don't have anything major planned, just to catch up with some friends and catch up on some new movies! (And also catch up on my new favorite Netflix addiction.... Friday Night Lights!)

  3. I'm with you on the blazer/blouse being a bit stuffy sometimes, but you TOTALLY made it fun. And the color of your skirt is amazing and makes the whole outfit really whimsical! I'm off to the fabric store for a re-create party! :) Have a wonderful weekend!

  7. I plan on catching up on sleep and tv! My bags are growing - they're HUGE! Ah, life of a working student...

    Your outfit looks great :) and I also always pack band-aids when I wear new flats because you never know until you walk in them...ALSO! band-aid brand came out with BLISTER band-aids, and they work like a charm! It's definitely worth a try...save your heels!
