When I wear jeans and a t shirt, I generally feel a little bit sloppy. Maybe it is just the casualness of the phrase “Jeans + Tee” but I feel like I’m phoning it in. That said, on Friday (yes, I’m posting these a few days after I wear them) I really wanted to go casual — because it was ACTUALLY Casual Friday. Also, I wanted to shake things up since I was really sticking to jeans and a cardigan and it was time for a change.
A quick look to Pinterest for inspiration and I found this:
Embellished Tees! The casual shirt that makes you feel pulled together! Noted. I may seek out some more of these. Well, not exactly these, though I am most definitely fond of finding something I like and buying it in every color. You know what I’m saying here, right? There is a place in my life for embellished tees and that place is Casual. Damn. Friday.
Here’s what I came up with:
Tee: Banana Republic
Jeans: Gap Premium Bootcut (Not loving these jeans and at the end of the day I could fit a second person in them)
Belt: Target
Ring: Target
Sandals: Merona for Target
Obviously my hopes were that I would instantly look like a Victoria’s Secret model. Sadly this did not happen. But I was fairly happy with the results.
Garrett was happy because between shots he captured two of my fierce unintentional Blue Steel faces while I was waiting for him to tell me he was ready. I think he just likes to mess with me.
Sometimes the outtakes are even better than the real pictures.
What did you wear today? Join the group and play a little show and tell.
Have I told you that I love this series you’re doing? You’re seriously super cute!! I’m also glad that someone out there buys as many of their clothes at Target as I do. 🙂
Thanks Manda! Honestly, I hadn’t realized until I started just how many things I buy from Target. Man do I LOVE that place! I mean, what in the heck would I do without it???
