Smiles Go With Everything

"Drifted on the dancing breeze"

This outfit was all about comfort chic. I was tired, I had a long day of work ahead of me, and I really felt more like staying in bed and reading all day. But I don’t get sick days, and getting a paycheck is pretty important, so I needed to find a way to feel comfy at work while still looking presentable. On days like this, I will often go straight to jeans and flats with a pretty blouse.

This blouse is a little slouchier than most of my clothes, and it’s a gorgeous, dark teal-green color. It seemed like the perfect thing for today, since it’s basically a t-shirt with some interesting details. I added to cardigan to polish it up a bit. Combine that with a fun headband, nice earrings, jeans and patent black flats, and I felt comfy and stylish.

I’ve noticed lately that my comfort outfits tend to be the ones that take the least amount of thinking to put together. A dress with flat boots and leggings, jeans and a nice blouse, etc. I prefer to be less complicated on my days when I really feel more like staying home.

The little keyhole detail in that blouse is fab. So cheeky and fun!

I love that you always manage to get mustard and teal in there! Its like your signature! I love that color combo and don’t know that i have ever given it a whirl! Thanks for the inspiration to try! I have mustard tights and a new teal scarf. Hmmm. Your stripes are so great. I love seeing stripes with bright color!

I love navy and white stripes…there is something so classic and chic about it. And the teal is such a nice color!
