Camo Pants

September 25, 2019September 24, 2019 ~ sanfordstandard ~ Leave a comment

Happy Humpday!!! You’ll notice a lot of what I’m wearing here are pieces that you’ve seen before just styled a different way! I feel like versatility is key for this time in my life because I don’t have tons of money to spend on new clothes every month. I have a lot of fun reworking the pieces in my closet, and I hope to inspire you to create new looks with what you already have. Sprinkling in a new piece can go a long way when you’re smart about what you buy.

I purchased these camo pants during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale this summer, and lucky for you, they are on sale again! Camo is trending this fall, so why not let this be the piece you add to your closet. You’ll be surprised by how much goes with them – especially items you already have!! Think white eyelet tops (shown above) and blue striped shirts while temps are still high, and don’t be afraid to pattern mix. Once the cooler weather hits, style these pants with a chambray, cozy sweaters in almost ANY solid color, and leather moto jackets. I can’t wait to see how you style these bad boys!!

Liberty London Blouse

It’s me wearing my favorite pair of white jeans AGAIN, but this time I styled them with a smocked blouse, a trend you’ve seen everywhere this summer. This Liberty London blouse offers a feminine and figure flattering style. It’s also cute paired with denim shorts or a flirty white skirt! I have loved wearing this top all summer and plan on taking it to Chicago with me this weekend! Get it now while it’s on sale and sizes are available.

Another trend I’m testing out is the clip trend. Aren’t they cute? I was worried these wouldn’t hold back my thick hair, but they do! I love this trend, like the headband trend, because you can incorporate it into your wardrobe without breaking the bank! Click the link above to see all the color options.

Happy Humpday!

Hi Friends! I’m still reflecting on my trip to the beach and how much fun we had! I wanted to show y’all one last set of pictures from our dinner at George’s in Alys Beach. First of all, if you haven’t been to Alys, you’re missing out. It’s a neutral’s paradise!!! The architecture is truly perfection.

If you don’t have a pair of “fun pants” in your closet, you need to add some. Unfortunately, mine are no longer available, but I tagged a few great options. Get creative with how you style them.

I hope you all had a great week! Thanks for stopping by, and don’t forget to share with a friend.

The blanket scarf – a perfect accessory for the fall. They come in bright plaids, neutral stripes and every color in between. Whether your fall consists of 80 degree days like mine or frigid 30 degree nights, the blanket scarf is a necessary addition to your wardrobe. Wear it as a shawl to dinner, a scarf to a college football game or as a cocoon walking the streets of a very breezy New York.

My favorite blanket scarf came from Madewell a couple of years back, and it hasn’t let me down since. It made an appearance on the Christmas card, in blog photos and served as a blanket in a frigid office.

I love Stripes

By now, you all know I love stripes. I wear them almost daily, and most likely they are blue and white. I can’t wait to wear this skirt with a chunky sweater into the fall. Maybe with a pair of booties and a leather jacket. Although, I think it might be a while until that happens… It will probably be 100 degrees for the foreseeable future.
