Ever find a wardrobe item that you just absolutely love? And you want to wear it...on repeat?  It could be a sweater, cute skirt, a great pair of jeans or even a jacket you constantly reach for.  Well, me too and lucky for us we can get a lot of mileage out of any given piece if we just become savvy about how to easily style it in more than one way.

If you've been reading for a while then you probably remember my rule of "Wear it Three Ways".  If I find a new item that I really want to buy I have to be able to wear it three ways before it finds its way into my closet.  Haha, and if you love clothes and shopping for new as much as I do then you completely get that!

Today's much-loved item is denim.  We all have a love-hate affair with jeans, so when we find a pair that we want to wear we sometimes don't want to ever take them off.  No worries. With the exception of a run through the washer, you don't have to part with them most days.

I've styled this pair of jeans two ways today to show how simple it is to get two totally different looks by switching out the surrounding pieces and their silhouettes.  Here are two ways to play...

Take denim downtown in a few simple steps.  A chunky turtleneck is always relaxed and laidback.  Punch up the easy feel vibes by reaching for these sneaks, a slouchy beanie and some cool shades.  Add a bit of interest and contrast to the look by topping it off with a black biker jacket and you are ready to go.

Then on the day that calls for a more polished look and feel, jeans can still own the moment.  Simply switch out that moto jacket for a classic, chic trench.  Love this camel one as it always owns the moment.   Still stay cozy with a soft sweater.  This ivory one is perfect for that and works beautifully with the soft neutral feel of the look we are building.  These sunnies are my new obsession and the colors in the frame and of the lens add some beautiful warmth.  And finally, a black beret and pair of ankle boots perfectly round out and finish off the look.

And there you go! One pair, two ways.  Which is your favorite item to style in ways that always look fresh?

Ever since the spring when we all began finding new ways to stay sane and keep it normal, our workout routines have taken on a whole new feel.  Working out from home is always a little more pleasurable when your gym outfit makes you feel cute.  Am I right?! These pieces are all perfect for the home gym, running around the neighborhood or simply just lounging around at home and looking like you worked out, haha.  I love the new patterns, pretty colors and ultra comfy feel these all have.  I also love that almost everything you see here is included in the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale happening now (more details here).  So whether it's a great pair of booty shaping leggings, chic sneakers or cozy sweatshirt you want, these will have you covered.  Right now, I'm grabbing this pair of leggings and these cute sneaks before they are gone.  So many pieces I want already sold out (ughhhh) but there are great items still available for now.  If you see anything you like, I have made the shopping easy and linked them for you in the thumbnails below.  

If you have found any pieces you all love (workout or otherwise!) at the Nsale that I have not yet mentioned, please let me know!  I never like to miss out, haha.

Thanks for sharing this part of your day with me...see you when the weekend rolls around!

Hello beautiful!  It's March and that means I've got spring in my sights.  And as much as I love sweaters and boots, a girl can only stay hidden beneath chunky knits for so long! Am I right?  Haha, well these are some of the early spring pieces on my radar right now.  Soft blushes, deep corals and street smart black are each having a moment.  A cute spring dress pays for itself with all the ways you can wear it (think with a blazer, paired with pumps or dressed down with sneakers).  The options seem endless.  A pretty blouse is what jeans want.  This belt is one of the best ones I've seen lately and would punch up any outfit.  Last but perhaps most coveted of all are these white ankle boots.  If you are a fan of Rach Parcell and follow her Insta stories then you know the saga behind these pretties, haha.  They work with all the spring things you have, want and love.  Perfect.  My favorites are linked below for you.  Hope you're having a great week so far!

Mondays mean cozy comfort required and what better way is there to bring that than with some soft colors and chunky knits? Cream and coffee shades are some of my favorites.  Probably because they are easy to pair and easy to wear.  This sweater shows you just what I mean.  I love the adorable pom pom detail and of course the gorgeous color.  It plays well with all neutrals, especially soft blue denim.  This cap has been on major rotation in my wardrobe.  I love it with absolutely everything, haha.  This cross body bag is on my wishlist.  I love the shape, it's the perfect size and the classic logo  is everything.  So not only can you order your Monday café au lait at Starbucks you can work it into your wardrobe too!  Happy new week all!

Casual vibes are some of the best kind and when that happens on a Monday we all win.  These easy, laid-back pieces pull together to give the chicest of simple looks. 

 This t shirt is one of my favorites right now.  

I'm also obsessed with the ease and comfort these track pants give.  They are basic enough to go with half of what you likely already own and the fun stripes add the just right amount of interest.  It's all in the details.  

This off the shoulder top makes me so happy and these earrings are its perfect complement.  

Classic hoops are always a smart choice and can take you anywhere you want to go.  

Finally, this cami is strong in the rotation this summer.  I love its scallop edged detail and how comfortable it always is.

How about all of you? What's your favorite way to greet a Monday?

Hello, weekend...we've been expecting you!  Friday's here and that laid back vibe is going strong.  I'm loving it and am guessing you do too.  To get things going, I'm highlighting some fun off-duty looks that are perfect for these late spring/early summer weekends we have coming up.  Soft colored shorts, fun little tees and flirty dresses have the to-do list covered.  From hitting the farmer's market to   a great date night, these are the pieces that effortlessly take you everywhere.  I also find a signature scent to be a relaxing way to let your senses unwind and enjoy some well-deserved downtime.  This one is my summer go-to.  It's sweet yet fresh and clean and always makes me feel ready for romance.

Speaking of love-filled moments...is anyone else absolutely giddy over this weekend's royal wedding? Aaaah, I truly cannot wait.  We'll be grabbing our scones early this Saturday as my friend Pamela says but it'll definitely be worth it!  Wishing you all a great one!

It's Monday and it's January which means we all need some definite warming up.  The best way I can think of to do that? With the teddy coat.  Well, at least it's the cutest.  This coat came strong on the scene last fall and seems to have blazed its way through the top ten trends list, never looking back.  Its street style game is strong and it loves to play dress up just as much as channel its inner tomboy.  I bought this one last November and have enjoyed wearing it on repeat.  Pairing it with everything from tights and skirts to denim and combat boots has made it so that it never felt familiar. Currently, I'm on the hunt for this one.  I'm absolutely obssesed with its plush, cozy texture and blanket like feel.  This winter, it is the absolute best way to stay warm (at least when it comes to clothing, haha).   If you don't have one of these and feel like you need one, I'd say you're right.  Shop the thumbnails below for your perfect fit.  Thanks so much for stopping by...Stay warm everyone!

Sweater weather is one of my favorite parts of fall.  Whether it's a chunky turtleneck or an on trend bell sleeve topper, cozy knits are definitely my thing.  With some many different gauges, cuts and colors this wardrobe staple is one everyone can embrace.  In shopping around I've discovered that Nordstrom has some of the best picks right now.  With options like Tospshop, Free People, Madewell and J. Crew to choose from (and all at price-matched prices) you just can't go wrong.  This ruffle detailed Tippi turtleneck is perfect with so many things.  From a sweet button detailed skirt to high-waisted skinnies and heels, it is a wardrobe workhorse.  I also love this oversized cardi.  It's absolutely what you want to go with your coffee and cozy on a weekend morning.   Speaking of which...what's everyone up to this fall weekend?  Whatever you're doing, have a wonderful time!

Happy weekend!  Friday has arrived in style with so many fantastic pre-fall looks to love.  If you saw this post from Wednesday then you'll know that my new favorite of-the-moment piece is the darling pinafore.  I don't know if it's the mod 'It Girl' vibe it carries or just how completely perfect it is for early autumn that makes me love it so but either way, this piece is a must-have for me right now.  Whether you want to dress it down aka overall fashion or style it up via soft colors and fabrics and necktie frills, this piece can take it any way and run.  On warmer days I'd pair it with short sleeved stripes and in cooler temps I'd reach for a slim fitting turtleneck and ankle boots.  Grab a great cross body (love this one) and your favorite sunnies and it's style game on.  

What fun plans does everyone have for the weekend? Fashion week, apple picking and time with family and friends are at the top of mine.  No matter where your plans take you, make it a great one...Enjoy!

Crew and Nordstrom.  What was once a simple adoration of an accent has now become a full on love affair with taste and timelessness.  If you're feeling the London vibe like I am you'll want to shop these British beauties below.  Enjoy and happy Friday!
