Lounge Wear Link Up & Going From Knee Boots To Booties: Transitioning Your Wardrobe From Winter To Spring

I’m so excited to be teaming up with Valerie from “The Style Files” for her Lougewear Link Up. As you know, I pride myself in getting dressed everyday and leaving the house in something other then my Lululemon pants!!!! But when I’m at home, it’s a different story. I come home and remove my jeans and put on my comfy, what I like to call, fat pants. Pretty much any day, if you stop by unexpectedly, you will find me in my Lululemon pants, t-shirt and either a cardigan or sweatshirt. So here is a picture of me in all my loungewear glory, complete with my slippers and my hair pinned back.

Pants (Lululemon). T-Shirt & Cardigan (Gap).

So this week’s tip on transitioning your wardrobe from Winter to Spring is to changeover your knee high boots for your booties. I know that many of you purchased booties this Winter and a great way to transition your dresses and boyfriend jeans to Spring is to pair them with your booties. It’s still a bit cold to go bare legged so wearing a shift dress and boyfriend jeans with booties will still keep you warm.

Booties (Fergalicious).

Below are 3 great options for Booties:

May this blog inspire you to transition into Spring by wearing your booties with dresses and/or boyfriend jeans.

Burgundy Cardigan, Heart Blouse & Tres-Chic Fashion Thursday Link Up

76 Replies

This is what I wore on Tuesday to run errands and to Book Club: a heart blouse, burgundy cardigan and skinny jeans. I’ve had this blouse in my closet for a while now and I was a bit stumped on different ways to wear it. I thought that the cardigan would look great with the blue and beige from the blouse. I like the way it turned out. What do you guys think?

Top (Piperlime). Cardigan (Jacob). Jeans (J Brand c/o Aritzia). Purse (Olivia & Joy). Boots (Browns). Watch (Michael Kors). Bracelets (Stella & Dot).

I know I’ve been wearing jeans a lot lately. It’s my default pant but I promise next fashion post will feature something other then my jeans.

These are the cupcakes I made for the January birthdays at the school I volunteer at.

Impromptu Coffee Date & Tres-Chic Fashion Thursday Link Up

55 Replies

This Sunday I had plans to go for High Tea with a good friend, but she and her family were sicker than dogs this week so that had to be postponed. Instead my husband decided to get a sitter and we headed to the mall for an impromptu coffee date. It’s extremely rare that we ever get a chance to run errands just the two of us. What a nice treat. We got coffee and had something to eat at the food court, and then we just putzed around the mall. I took a look at some cameras as in the Spring we will be purchasing a new one!!!! I can’t wait for a camera that takes better, faster pictures. Then we headed grocery shopping, exciting, yes I know, but hey any parents out there will understand how nice it is to just get groceries in peace. Anyways that was our date, although short, it was still nice to just have a few hours to ourselves. Below is what I wore. I’m absolutely in love with this quilted purse from J Crew. It reminds me of Chanel, but much more affordable. ( I apologize for how tired I look in these pictures. These were taken on Monday after a rather challenging end to Sunday.)

Sweater & Shirt (Gap). Blazer (Banana Republic). Jeans (J Brand c/o Aritzia). Boots (Browns). Purse (J Crew).

I’d like to welcome Valerie from Style Files to my blog!!!!

Hi everyone! My name is Valerie, and I blog over at The Style Files. I am in the midst of finding my style so I blog about anything from outfits to workouts to DIY projects and more!

I’m thrilled to guest post for Agi today while she is on vacation! I love reading Agi’s blog…and I personally think she is wonder woman! I don’t know how she balances being a wife, mother, labor & delivery nurse AND being a blogger but she definitely rocks it! (Sidenote: I’m also incredibly jealous of her baking skills. Honestly- have you seen her cupcakes?! AMAZING! I am a total amateur compared to her…maybe I can get Agi to teach me her ways whenever I am in Canada!) I also love her style—I find myself creating similar outfits and pinning items to add to my clothing wish list!

That said, I wanted to focus my guest post on my personal style when it comes to outfits. I am all about remixing items you already have to make fun & exciting outfits without having to buy something new all the time!

One of my favorite purchases has been a cargo jacket I got at Old Navy. I had no idea when I bought it that it would be such a closet staple! But it’s a great layering piece and goes with a ton of items you probably already have in your closet!

So I put together some photos of how I’ve worn my cargo jacket below. Feel free to pin away!

Which look is your favorite?

Looking for a cargo jacket of your own? Here are a few options from some of my favorite places to shop:

Old Navy (exact)
Kohl’s (vest that I just got as part of my June clothing budget)
Gap

J. Crew Factory
Target (vest)

Be sure to drop by my blog, The Style Files, and say hello! And thanks again to Agi for letting me guest post! Hope you are having a wonderful vacation!

Thanks Valerie for guest posting!!!!
