Chevron, chevron, chevron. It’s everywhere! And guess what..it’s sticking around for fall! Today I’m showing a little variation of the chevron top. I like this pattern because it’s not quite as bold as some of my other pieces. If you’re like me you need pieces that can be versatile in your wardrobe. This top works great for work or casual. I first paired the top with a pencil skirt, of course it doesn’t have to be as “matchy” as this look. I do like the monotone effect but pairing it with a neutral like khaki would be adorable too! The second look I love because it’s so easy but still looks really put together. It’s perfect to throw on your favorite jewelry pieces and head out. You could also do a denim skinny or jegging here with a flat or a heel. Which look is your favorite?

It’s Monday so I’m brightening things up for you guys today! My first look is all about the yellow! (Which happens to be my favorite color!) I also added a pop of pink with a statement necklace just to kick it up a notch. This look is perfect for those Monday mornings when you are not quite jumping for joy to get back to work, it adds a little pep to your step. What I like to call “caffeinated clothing.” The second look is toned down a bit with the neutral gray tee but still has an added spark with the yellow necklace. Which look is your favorite??

Also I would love to hear from you on what you would like to see more/less of on my blog! You can leave a comment or email me at: kristen.m.willoughby@gmail.com

Thanks and look forward to hearing from you!!!

Today I want to showcase the maxi dress. I’m only 5’2 1/2 (yes, the 1/2 is very important) but a maxi dress actually makes me look taller! And I love anything that helps elongate me. plus most maxi dresses are so easy just to throw on and go. Here I’m showing my version and some inspiration maxis. I wore this one out to dinner with my husband and some friends this weekend and it was perfect for a not too hot summer night. What are your thoughts on the maxi dress?

Just as a little added bonus I’ve decided to add some statement jewelry pieces I have my eye on. I’m not quite ready to commit to any of them yet but as soon as I find the perfect outfit I may be adding to my collection. What do you think?

Happy Saturday!! Today I’m bringing you two casual looks, one for summer and one to help transition into fall. The first look is perfect for summer and can be dressed up with heels or more casual with flats as shown here. The second look can transition you into fall or if you’re like me and you freeze at restaurants, it can work for a date night in the summer or fall! Plus I added a pop or turquoise (always my favorite) with a statement necklace that gives the top a different look. Which look is your favorite??

It’s finally Friday!! My first week of blogging is in the books and I’m so excited to be getting feedback about what you ladies want to see. The number one request seemed to be where to find the items I’m featuring. So today I’m partnering with The Willow Tree to show you a few items that you can purchase yourself!!

I haven’t jumped on the patterned palazzo style pants bandwagon yet but when I saw these Aztec print beauties I just couldn’t resist. I first paired it with a sheer flowy black top and bandeau. To keep it from looking too frumpy I did a small tuck in the front. Next, I wanted to brighten it up with a little color and this turquoise tank seemed to be just right. Plus I was able to throw on one of my favorite statement necklaces. Which look is your favorite?
