Sometimes the occasion calls for something casual, but a little zhuzshed up. Today’s outfit is a blazer and jeans look, but with a little extra ✨✨✨
Maybe it’s a birthday party, or brunch with the girls. Relaxed, but festive. A sharp little linen jacket, jewelry with a bit of sparkle, and metallic flats take this denim look up a notch.
Casual look with added sparkle
I absolutely LOVE this cropped linen blazer from Madewell. It’s the same cut as the plaid blazer I styled 3 ways here. The blazer is also available in white, in Standard and Plus sizes. It’s a nice cut for Petites, though the sleeves may be a little long. (I like to roll mine up anyway, so not a issue for me.)
The jeans are also from Madewell, these are the “low slung straight” style. Though don’t let the name scare you off; they fit as more of a mid-rise. They have a nice relaxed straight fit* through the legs, not too wide or slim. And they are full length! They’re available in Standard, Petite, and Tall sizes.
*a little fuller and more relaxed through the legs than the J.Crew Classic Straight jeans.
Citrine is one of my very favorite stones, so I was smitten with these new pieces from French Kande! (gifted) The necklace features the “Ange” (Angel) medallion. It’s a nice statement piece without being too chunky or heavy. The faceted citrine stones on the bracelet along with the set-in crystals on the boucle pendant catch the light nicely!
Slingbacks can be a great closed-toe footwear option for warmer weather. I think this low-heeled style can be worn with everything from jeans to special occasion looks (and won’t sink into the grass at those outdoor events!). The gold (or silver) metallic is fun and festive, but they’re also available in several other colors. They run about 1/2 size large.
Do you have any special events coming up in the next few weeks?
