Today it’s just Kara and me… Erin had to leave yesterday. Bummer!
Today we are showing two versions of a plaid shirt. On the right is my before look- which Kara so lovingly described as ‘you look like you are in your pajamas!’
I think she’s right!
These loose, baggy cargos have no shape and do indeed look like jammies. Maybe that’s why they’re so comfortable.
On the left I have traded out the baggys for my new skinny cargos. I’ve layered a sweater over my plaid shirt and then, to define my waist, I added a belt.
To finish the look, I threw on a necklace. Best of all, my plaid shirt is from Target (love a bargain).
Kara, on the other hand, is wearing a plaid shirt from J Crew. Hers is paired with skinny jeans, a thin wool sweater and then she’s also added a necklace. My favorite part of her outfit is these fabulous J Crew booties. They are so comfy and so cute- and definitely on my wish list for next year…
To those of you who have been reading for a while, you know I’ve tried plaid shirts several ways and failed miserably each time. I think I finally got it right today! Go me!
