Today's Everyday Fashion: Fresh Take

Inspiration: Chictopia email



I wore this blazer and denim combo last year (here) and am loving the fresh take with mint and ankle-strap shoes. If I owned an office here in Orlando, then this is what I would wear. I remember seeing a picture of Jenna Lyons in her office wearing a blazer and distressed jeans probably 10 years ago and I wanted to be her! She still rocks this style today and I totally would too. ;-) Where would you wear this look? 

Blazer: Banana Republic, $69 (similarcheaper)
Shirt: Express, $25
Jeans: American Eagle, $33 (similar, similar)
Shoes: H&M, $35 (similar, similar, similar, similar)
Necklace: Windsor Store c/o
Purse: Michael Kors, gift
Rings: INPINK c/o, My Stella & Dot 1
Bracelets: My Stella & Dot 1, 2, 3

  1. I would totally wear this color combo but prob not the Blazer. Blazers just don't tend to be my thing. You rock it perfectly though! Great look and those heels...LOVE!

  2. Hi! Where did you get the patches to fill the holes in your jeans? You mentioned it before but I can't remember. Thanks!

  11. These jeans came with the holes already filled! :-) If you want to DIY though it won't look exactly the same (the patches will be white instead of blue like mine today) - here is the Amazon kit I linked to last time. Hope this helps! http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000FNE0B2/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B000FNE0B2&linkCode=as2&tag=jsevefas-20

  14. Everywhere! It's such a great look. Those are super cute sandals. Unfortunately, our H&M's shoe/sandal selection is more than lacking. Maybe someday they'll improve that department (everything else there is great!)

  15. I love those shoes, J! And it bothers me to no end that H&M does not have an online presence. Btw, I went to Target to buy those ankle strap Vintas you showcased yesterday. Curses! ;p


    I wouldn't wear this look only because I can't do ripped/distressed jeans at work and I don't buy pieces I can't wear to work, but I can certainly sub a good pair of boyfriends and go from there.

  21. I love the mix of coral and mint! So pretty. Those shoes are absolutely perfect, and the distressed jeans keep the look more youthful and fun! Great outfit!

  22. I have the same problem with my local H&M! They don't carry everything you find in bigger cities, but couldn't believe my luck when I spotted these shoes last summer! :-)

  23. This is so pretty, J! I am a lawyer, therefore, it's not very office appropriate for me, but I really like this outfit a lot and would wear it virtually everywhere, haha.

  24. Love the color combination of this outfit! I wouldn't ever think to pair my mint colors with red but will definitely have to try it out now! Thanks for the idea! :)

    ReplyDelete
  25. I never would have paired mint and red, but I love it on you! And I still adore your MK bag, I hope you love it too!
