Colored Denims: 2nd look

sophisticated colored pants



 striped top skinny jeans |  Shoes Collar necklace | Watch | Feather necklace, |  Leather belt | ALDO Tonai


This is the second look for the green/minty pants. It's definitely more sophisticated and appropriate for most work places. {Then again, I stay at home with my kids, so what do I know. :)} I love that you can take a piece and give it completely different looks. I purposely added a brown bag with the b&w top to modernize it a bit. Black and brown always compliment each other, in my opinion. The black is tied in with the Zara heels so it's not too funky. You can wear the blouse tucked in or out. I would probably choose untucked. I'm not as comfortable with tucked in shirts; makes me feel old........?

Colored Denims

one pair of colored denims



Tank: heather grey shirt  | Colored denims: skinny jeans | Wedges: high heel shoes | Clutch: clutch handbagRubber watch | Ring, $12

I am loving the colored pants/denim trend this year. Today, I'm showing you the typical, everyday wear of these pants. Easy and laidback with a cool tank, but polished 'enough' with some wedges. I threw in a sequin clutch to add some punch, giving it a more playful girly look. Tomorrow, I'll show you the dressier, more conservative look with these pants.

Would you wear this outfit? Would you change anything about it?

A couple days ago, I created a few outfits for a friend(Hi Melanie!) on Polyvore. I love Polyvore!!!! Not just because I can finally create inspiration boards{FOR FREE} but also because I have found more amazing clothing websites through Polyvore than anywhere else, including Pinterest. If you haven't  tried it out, you need to.....like now. Go! No wait! Don't! Finish my post first, then go. Back on track: Polyvore! You can see I added the turquoise J. Crew Bubble Necklace as a statement piece.
 J.Crew Bubble Necklace: $150
But wait! Is it? I clicked on the link, and what do you know? It's a lookalike! On Etsy! For $49! And not $150!!!
 Etsy Bubble Neckalce: $49
So I whipped out my debit card and swiped it. Not really. I just typed the digits. It just sounded cooler to say swipe. hehe Sidetracked again. The news gets better, yes! I received an email the next day from her saying if I buy a 2nd, she will give me a 3rd color of my choice for free!!! I'm like, "Heck Yeah!". She sells them in many differenty colors{black, yellow, cobalt, red, coral}Waiting impatiently by my mailbox everyday so I can play dress up with them! I'll do a review on them ASAP. Here's the link to her etsy
Enjoy!!
