Colorful Cardigan

October 14, 2022October 14, 2022 ~ sanfordstandard ~ Leave a comment

During the cold and dreary months, you need a bright piece like this cardigan to get you through. Just because it’s going to be drab outside doesn’t mean your clothes have to be too! I love this cardigan casually with distressed jeans and sneakers, but I also think it could be fabulously elevated with a pair of black leather pants. Find a way to spice up your wardrobe this winter!

Here are some other colorful cardigans that would also be fun additions to your fall and winter wardrobe!

Plaid Perfection

Introducing another Spanish line I love, The Label Edition! I don’t know about you, but I get tired of seeing the same ol’ things online and at every store. This line offers special pieces that I’ve been on the hunt for – mainly tops with interesting details. I’ve linked their website above, so that you can see all that they have to offer! I tucked this top into my go-to pair of distressed jeans and added a Chelsea boot and of course, a fun earring and headband. I can’t wait to style this top with white jeans and an espadrille in the spring. When I shop, I focus on buying pieces that I can get a lot of wear out of, and this top has definitely accomplished that.

Thanks for stopping by, friends! XO, Mary Sanford

Camel Suede Jacket + Blue Jeans

October 19, 2020October 18, 2020 ~ sanfordstandard ~ Leave a comment

You really can’t go wrong with blue jeans and a camel jacket or coat in the fall. They are such a classic and neutral combo. This jacket is a piece I picked up from Luxury Garage Sale a few years back, and it has been a staple in my wardrobe ever since. Because this jacket is no longer sold, I linked another camel suede option I love as well.

When shopping for great pieces, don’t forget to check out consignment stores because you never know what you might find! I got this jacket at a fraction of its original retail price.

Happy Monday, and thanks for stopping by! XO, MS

The Camo Puffer Vest

This camo vest was a staple for me this fall and winter. I love that it covers my bum and adds a little something to an all black work out look. Here I styled it with a basic white tee and distressed jeans as we head into spring. An otherwise simple look was completed with this third piece. I think I’ll pair it back to white jeans and a button down too.

I try to style my outfits based on the rule of thirds. Top off any look with a scarf, statement earring or some sort of outerwear to pull together an outfit. Check out these blog posts where I used the rule of thirds: 1, 2, 3, 4!

Layers are necessary as temperatures drop. Add your favorite flannel under a crew neck sweater, and you are not only warm but stylish. Distressed jeans aren’t the only item that will complete this look. Front tuck the sweater into a leather or suede skirt or wear your favorite joggers. Make this look a part of your weekly routine, and you won’t regret it.
