Day to Night

June 25, 2012

DAY:  Cardigan: BP via Nordstrom. Top: H&M dress worn as top. Skirt: Necessary Objects via Nordstrom. Shoes: Nine West. Necklace: Forever 21. Sunglasses: Chanel. Ring: BCBG.  

NIGHT:  Clutch: Zara. Sandals: Jimmy Choo.

 

My day-to-night dressing formula. . .remove the cardigan, pointy toe pumps and tote bag.  Add a sparkly clutch and pretty sandals.  Voilà, you have a super easy look to take you from work to sipping cocktails with fabulous friends.

    I was in love with the skirt- gray is my favorite color (which is funny because my 4 year old always says, “Gray’s not a color. Pick another one.”). And then I saw that clutch. I don’t even use clutches, but I am in love with that one!

    You look FABULOUS! What a versatile outfit — appropriate for day, night, and fancy weekend. I’d wear this to a shower or something. In fact, I have one coming up, maybe I’ll try to recreate :) .

      Thanks so much Catalina! Great idea, this would be perfect for a shower. I have one next month also, so I might be recycling this exact outfit!

    Jenny, I love this transformation. Interesting what a difference a cardigan, shoes and clutch/bag can make. I am so in love with your sequined clutch, It can dress up so many looks and such a statement piece. The pearls necklace is super match to the whole outfit. Next time I would try out sth different with the hair minus sunglasses hahaha? ;-)
    Have a great start in the week!

      Thanks so much Ramya! I’m using the Canon T2i Rebel with 50mm lens. We really don’t know anything about photography, and this camera is pretty easy to use.
