2 Ways to Wear Something: Cape Blazer

Disclaimer: This blog post contains affiliate links.

Of all the Who What Wear pieces I picked up, the one that had me rush out to Target in the first place was the cape blazer.

I had been wanting to grow up my wardrobe a little bit, and this blazer do just that. And in a trendy way. Now, usually I’m not all that big on trends, but this is one that spoke to my very core.

Everything I’m wearing in this post, aside from the cape blazer that is, isn’t exactly new. The actual items are no longer available from where I got them.

But don’t worry, I’ve linked to some similar items below!

2 Ways to Wear Something: Trench Vest

Just because I won’t be attending NYFW this season, it doesn’t mean that I can’t do something a little fashion forward on my own.

Even before I scored any of pieces from the Who What Wear x Target collection, I was thinking about which items I wanted and how I would style each of them.

One of my favorite pieces was this trench vest. I honestly didn’t think I’d actually end up getting it, but it is so me and I’m positive it’ll be worn very often!

Trench Vest: Target
Sweater: & Apparel
Necklace: Kate Spade
Jeans: American Eagle
Shoes: Dolce Vita (similar)

Also, if you didn’t notice, my hair is back to black. Well really dark brown, which is my natural color and a refreshing change.

Dress: Old Navy (similar)
Necklace: Shopbop
Socks: Old Navy
Boots: Steve Madden

I’m already planning how I want to wear this next!

Call me crazy, but I am such a sucker for Valentine’s Day!

While I may not be the mushy type, that doesn’t mean that I don’t value love. Speaking of love, today my sister and I are going to an event all about celebrating self-love.

In kind of honor of said event, I’m sharing two Valentine’s Day inspired looks featuring the perfect red winter hat that I found on clearance at Target, after almost giving up hope!

Hat: Target
Dress: Old Navy (similar)
Necklace: Mirina Collections
Clutch: Kate Spade
Shoes: Zara
Lashes: Ardell
Lips: LOC

I’m also really excited about these overalls. I found them at Target on clearance as well. And while I wasn’t exactly looking for them, they very much so needed to be in my closet!

Overalls: Target
Sweater: H&M (similar)
Necklace: Stella & Dot
Rings: Old Navy
Shoes: Converse

There’s still a couple of weeks or so before Valentine’s Day, but I wanted to share these outfits with you in hopes of them helping to inspire you even a just little bit. And, if you’re not that into Valentine’s Day like that, make sure to at least give yourself some love!

2 Ways to Wear Something: J. Crew Stadium-Cloth Cocoon Coat

Disclaimer: This blog post contains affiliate links.

My little nook of New England finally got hit with some snow.

But not before I was able to put together a couple of outfit with wear with a winter coat.

This J. Crew Stadium-Cloth Cocoon Coat was my most recent wardrobe investment. I got it last winter and it was definitely worth it for how often I wear it.

You can also save big by getting it from J. Crew Factory!

I wanted to show you just how easy it is to wear it both casually and a little more formally. And if a pair of overalls and a tight little black dress don’t demonstrate that then I don’t know what else could.

Coat: J. Crew
Shirt: Old Navy
Overalls: Gap (similar)
Crossbody Bag: BAGGU via the Poshmark app
Hat: Silence + Noise (similar)
Boots: Forever 21
Necklace: Kate Spade

Dress: Asos
Purse: Forever 21
Hat: Forever 21 (similar)
Heels: Christian Louboutin

See…
I told you I’d make an effort to wear my So Kate heels more.

And given how cold out it is now, I’ll probably be doing the same thing with this coat.

A lot!

2 Ways to Wear Something: Christian Louboutin So Kate Heels

Disclaimer: This blog post contains affiliate links.

I am far from rich, so I don’t have many investment pieces.

My Christian Louboutin So Kate heels are my among my utmost possessions. I saved, and I mean saved, up for these bad boys like you wouldn’t believe! I love wearing them, because they’re gorgeous little works of art. Plus, they make my legs look AMAZING.

However, they aren’t exactly the most comfortable shoes, so I don’t wear them very often.

My go to makeup look is a very subtle smokey eye and glossy nude lip.

This jacket was a wardrobe upgrade, after a sticker left a mark on my old moto jacket and the clutch I got pre-loved.

Jacket: American Eagle Outfitters
Shirt: Target
Jeans: Gap
Clutch: Clare V. via the Poshmark app
Hat: Target
Heels: Christian Louboutin

Shirt: Old Navy
Vest: Madewell via the Poshmark app
Tote: Madewell
Jeans: Aeropostle

I am going to make an effort to wear them more often.

This is a start.

10 Favorite Outfits from 2014

This year I want to make an effort to do more outfit posts.
Not only outfits, but more.

I shared a ton of outfits on Instagram, I just didn’t share nearly as many on here.
So to start the year, I want to share my 10 favorite outfits from Insta!

As you can probably tell, even though I like to switch up my look, my style always tends to be a little on the dramatic side.

Is there anything you’d like to see styled on Twenty Something Plus? If I have it or something similar, I’m up for the challenge, just let me know!

I love a good photo challenge.

I love People StyleWatch.

When I got the Go-To Style Guide, I thought why not challenge myself to try each of the style looks featured in the special issue. So that’s what I did!

4 Ways To Do Red, White + Blue

With the Fourth of July being this weekend, I started to think about what I was going to wear to all the BBQs, parties + fireworks.

I get really excited about holidays because they can inspire some pretty great + creative outfits. Hey, any excuse to dress festively!

When I think about Independence Day, I think red, white and blue, so I styled four different red, white and blue looks. While I don’t expect anyone to want to copy any of these looks exactly, I hope that they can still spark (pun fully intended, ain’t no shame in my game) some outfit inspo!

Nothing in this post is new or even recently purchased, everything was already in my closet (or on my bedroom floor)…except for the Birkenstocks, I got them on Poshmark about a week or two ago + have worn them pretty much everyday since.
