White Tee - Day Three

Continuing the White Tee fun this week, next I want to show you how to dress it up a little with an eclectic look.  This is also a relatively affordable look, especially if you already have some flat leather boots!  The white tee gives off a "cool, casual" vibe when paired with the multi-colored patterned skirt from Forever21.   For a summer look, you would wear the skirt + tee combo with a pair of leather sandals or ballet flats, but for Fall, layer a comfy sweater in a complementary color (I chose blue here, but almost any color would work with the patterned skirt).  Add a bright color in the form of accessories, like this pretty Zara purse and hammered metal Top Shop earrings, and ground the look with rich, dark boots.  Combine all of these elements for a seriously easy, laid back look!

Happy Monday!  I am enjoying the last day of a FOUR DAY WEEKEND!  It has been really wonderful, filled with lots of relaxation, movies, and good food (if you're in the Cincinnati area, definitely give Taste of Belgium in OTR a try... the pumpkin waffle.... yum!).  I didn't spend a lot of the weekend out in public, so there were lots of leggings and sweatshirt outfit combinations for me, but when I did go out this weekend I took advantage of the beautiful and mild fall weather we've been having.  I picked up a pair of legwarmers at Aldo on Friday and wore them basically all weekend - they are SO comfortable and look so cute underneath a pair of boots (think comfy casual rather than 80's throwback).  Here is a way to incorporate leggings into your fall outfit, oh and HERE are the leggings I picked up on Friday, if you're interested! 

Remember, if I get to 250 facebook fans by December 1, I am doing a GIVEAWAY!  Please spread the word and go to Stylized Existence and "Like" the page!

First of all, HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM!  It's my dear mother's birthday so I have to show some love.  That aside, I wanted to show you guys what I wore this weekend.  I spent the majority of Saturday in the car (with a few stops to test drive a car and for Jeni's ice cream) and needed to be comfortable, but still wanted to look cute.  With my road trip post fresh in my mind, I put together a casual and comfortable look.  Here's what I wore, and I hope you enjoy a glimpse into my wardrobe:

Oh, and in case you were interested, I had the Buckeye State and Brambleberry Crisp at Jeni's. TWO THUMBS UP!

Lately, while driving, I find myself taking in the beauty of the changing leaves and the gorgeous colors of fall.  This time of year, the perfect weekend would include a scenic road trip to a bed and breakfast in the country with a stop at both an apple orchard (for some spiced cider!) and a pumpkin patch along the way, all while wearing this comfy outfit full of rich, soft knits.  Although I don't generally condone the wearing of leggings as pants, this slate blue sweater will adequately cover your goods in the back, and you'll be riding in the car, right!?  And leggings are acceptable travel wear, in my book, especially if you're pairing them with the adorable cable-knit legwarmers.

The outfit in this post is really a simple backdrop for some stunning and detailed accessories.  Accessories are such an affordable way to create many different looks.  With the basis of skinny jeans, boots, and a sweater, the opportunities are endless to introduce different scarves, glasses, hair styles, purses, nail polishes, and jewelry in order to mix up your look!
