Black and Navy, a perfect combination

I love Black and Navy together. I'm a fairly recent convert. I feel put together in this combination, even when the outfit itself is fairly plain. Like today's outfit - one of my favourites. It's nothing spectacular, doesn't set the world on fire from a fashion perspective but I always feel really good in it. And isn't that what it is all about?

I love the detail on this shirt. The puff sleeve and the bow. They take a standard blouse and make it feel so much nicer.

Shirt: Dotti, Crepe Kitty Blouse $19.95 - $49.95

Pants: Country Road, Sateen Pant $99.95

What's your favourite easy/but feels great combination?



OOTD - Workwear

Dressing for work can be such a chore sometimes. You want to look nice...but it's just for work. And it needs to be appropriate. And comfortable. And you don't really have the time in the morning to put together that outfit that says "Hey, I'm stylish! Look!". Some days I'm happy if my outfit says "I'm clean, no little noses or hands have grubbied me up yet!". As a bare minimum I hope that nothing clashes and hopefully everything kinda sorta matches.

 

 

This blouse is a favourite. I bought it at Target last year. It is one of those items that every time you wear it people comment on how nice it is.  The pants are standard issue Country Road work pants, similar to these. 

 

 

 

 

The amethyst pendant? It is special. It celebrates the birth of child#2

 

 

 

 

Workwear - a necessary evil!  How do you "style" it (snort - not much style going on in my workwear!) ? What are your go-to looks?
