I woke up yesterday morning with an outfit ready to go and immediately rejected it. Along with the next one and the next one and the next one.
Shirt, NAF NAF
Cami and necklace, J. Crew Outlet
Pants, J. Crew
Shoes, Talbots
Sunnies, Target

Finally in a fit of rage slight huff, I settled on this. A just-ok outfit. I HATE just-ok outfits. I want to completely and totally love every single outfit I wear, which is of course unrealistic. Sometimes a so-so, slightly blah outfit is ok, too.
These pants? The same ones as I wore yesterday. I told you I had them in three colors. They’re J. Crew Bennett chinos, and I hope they come back this fall because they are (obviously) my favorite pants.
Thanks to Brittany of brittkreigh.com for taking today’s photos!

I like this outfit! While I love your normal use of bright colors, I’m a big fan of neutrals and metallics and think this looks very chic. I’m also digging the monochromatic look on you!
Aww thank you! You’re giving me some inspiration for new outfits that are more neutral…maybe I’ll try those!
Love your simple practical take on fashion, this is what we need on day to day basis! Love this blog, come see mine and maybe we can follow each other? let me know
Thank you Mrs. C!
I really like the pants. I’m a huge fan of neutrals. They suit me better.

Sometimes neutrals are just the way to go.
I think this is a great outfit! But yeah, those “just okay” outfit days are never fun. We all have them. The pants are adorable! And I love the splash of color those flats add to the outfit. Lovely! So glad that I stumbled across your blog and can’t wait to read more in the future!

Enter my HANDBAG GIVEAWAY!!!!!!
I love this color too – perfect alternative to black.
I think your top is so cute…love the fun sleeve detail!
It’s one of my favorites – I wish the store I bought it in is closer (I think there’s one in NY).
That’s exactly how I felt today too. I hated every single thing in my closet. I hate the just ok days. You still look beautiful if it helps!
You are sooo nice BBF!
I so hate those days where you hate everything in your closet and feel like you have no fashionable clothes. I have those days farrrr too often, and end up settling for some form of jeans and a casual top. Worst. Days. Ever! But you look really cute! I think your “blah” outfit is actually quite cute!
That’s so nice of you – I feel like sometimes it’s a matter of conquering the criticism in my head and not worrying about my outfit so much! (Easier said than done.)
I love these yellow flats!! About your CL Decollete question – I don’t consider this patent version to be all-day shoes, but it may be because I haven’t broken them in enough. The other pair I have, the non-patent Decoltissimos…I bought those second-hand and they were perfectly broken in and ready to go. I would consider those all day shoes. Hope this helps!
It does – thank you so much for taking the time to answer me!
