Ensemble du Jour

The Outfit
I got to wear my new jeans from the Gap today. It's still kind of warm so I wore a mouse-grey polo shirt from Target. I really like these jeans. They are a new style for me. I've always worn Gap jeans. I liked the fit and they weren't too expensive. And since I don't wear jeans all that much I don't have to get them that often. I used to wear the low rise boot cut jean, but when I went to go get another pair, I tried on the exact style and size as I have bought before. But they did not fit right at all and were 4 inches too long!

The Long and Lean style were a recommendation and I'm glad I tried them. They have sort of a boot cut but they fit well. The wash is pretty neutral. Plus they were on a major sale! I know I'll be wearing them all Fall and Winter. I'm just glad I didn't have to try on a million pairs.



The Focal Point
While it was really about wearing my new jeans today, I had to accessories with a pair of shoes that I bought for pairing with jeans in mind. The Paolo glitter peep-toe heels are edged in tan leather (pulling out the brown tone in the mouse-grey shirt) and the glitter is the perfect denim blue.

I love them!



I took this photo with my iPhone. It came out pretty well I think. I've been swiping a lot of my outfit images from the web and using Polyvore to try and build an example image, but if it isn't recent I can't get an image to share. My phone pics look pretty good, so I can add even more images!

Yeah phone pics!

Ensemble du Jour

The Outfit
Today I wore a sporty, Summery outfit that was still appropriate for work. The top is a polo style knit top I bought at Anthropologie. It's cream and orange with red side panels. The skirt is an Isaac Mizrahi pleated dress denim from Target.



The shoes are Via Spiga Branny. They are a very soft leather moccasin style pump. They are much more cream in person than how they appear here. What's great is the sole is very cushy - sort of driver moc-style and the stacked wood heel continues the casual style.



The Focal Point
Today's focal point is the detailing in the collar of the shirt. The shirt mixes up the polo style by replacing the traditional collar with cream silk done in a ruffly pleat. Anthropologie is one of my favorite stores for finding unique pieces like this.
