Today's Everyday Fashion: The Style Seminar



Not only did I save this Banana Republic inspiration photo, but I also went out and bought the same shirt (total copycat). I wore the first version for my style seminar at the Grand Forks Women's Show last weekend, the jacket was for extra warmth, and I'm also showing a more casual untucked version with boots on the right. Below you will see my outfit in action, along with Dawn and Shyla's adorable outfits - you'll notice we had a mustard theme going! How would you wear it?

Inspiration photo: Banana Republic
Cardigan: Banana Republic, $19
Shirt: Banana Republic, $40 (similar, similar, similar, similar)
Jeans: UnionBay c/o Kohl's, $23
Belt: Limited, $15

Shoes: c/o Nine West, $62

    I love this!!  So autumnal :)  My favorite is the first look.  I'm a sucker for a belt over a cardigan.

    All of these looks are great!  I am having a love affair with mustard yellow and finally completed my collection with a pair of mustard yellow skinnies.  It's going to be fun styling them. Heather

    J, out of curiosity, how many cardigans do you own?

     I keep buying them out of inspiration to your outfits.  :) I almost think you can't ever have too many colors of them and since they're classics, who's counting, right?

    Thanks for your site! Steph in MN

    Great format! I LOVE how you featured 3 looks from one basic outfit, especially the shoe options.  While I LOVE the look of heels, they aren't always practical in my work setting, so I love when you also show how you could wear the same outfit with a boot and/or flat.  thanks for all you do to keep us inspired!

    I personally like the last version. I don't know why, but the tie shirt with the button up cardi looks strange to me. I like it open. But great color combo!

    J your makeup has been looking really great lately - have you started using new products?

    I've been keeping my eye on the Grifter boot for awhile. Any idea why it's way more expensive now than the $150 you posted with the link? It's listed as $179 on their website and I swear an hour ago it said $175.

    Thank you! Same products I've been using for years, probably just the lighting. ;-)

    Melissa, I got the boots last fall and they were listed as $150 then. It looks like they must've raised the price but I'm not sure when that happened!

    Absolutely gorgeous. Love your stying. I actually think you have styled it better than BR ;-) I love the boots too, but think I may be biased, as that's all we can wear the 6 winter months in Denmark ;-)

    I love, love the first outfit.  I think it is classy.  I could even wear something similiar to teach.

    These are great styling options. I love the first look the best, although I know I would not look great if I wore this look.  My body would look best in the third look with the blouse half-tucked and paired with the pumps in the first look.
