30 x 30: Seven

 

 

 Top & Wedges: Target // Maxi Skirt: JcPenney

When I was putting together the clothing for my 30 x 30 Remix Challenge I decided to incorporate this striped maxi skirt to figure out a way to style it more for colder weather since I've always associated maxi dresses and skirts with warmer weather. I'd pinned a few ideas but when it came down to it I knew that pairing it with a simple sweater and these neutral wedges was definitely the way to go. I'm really loving these taupe-beige shades at the moment anyway so this outfit turned out to be one of my favorites from this challenge so far.

30 x 30: Three

 Top & Skirt: Thrifted // Blazer: JcPenney // Wedges: Target

When I began this 30 x 30 challenge I wanted it to push me to put together outfits I normally wouldn't select on my own, and this outfit definitely falls into that category. I don't wear a lot of business casual looks but I think this outfit is work appropriate while remaining true to my style. I honestly felt unsure about it until I saw the pictures but after seeing them uploaded,  I fell in love with all the neutrals in this outfit because none of them are black or brown... How often does that happen? Almost never, at least not around HN. I have never been very fond of the color navy but I'm slowly starting to get it, especially when it's paired with olive.

Wearing White

 Cardigan & Wedges: Target // Jeans, Blouse, & Clutch: JcPenney

I recently added this white blouse to my closet in lieu of a tradition white button-up. I love a good plain white button up but I loved the tuxedo vibe of this top that makes it a little bit dressier than the alternative. I don't own a lot of white clothing but I'm hoping to change that. In the past I've always been worried of getting white clothing dirty because I'm not always the cleaniest of people, but I figure that's why bleach was invented, right? I can't wait to style this blouse when the weather is warmer with some blue jean cut-offs and some minimalist sandals - the perfect simple spring get-up!

Take A Chance

 I'm not usually one to grab the sleeveless, kinda short, kinda tight dress, but the print on this dress got me, and I thought why not? I've always been a bit self conscious about my body but I definitely shouldn't let that stop me from buying a dress I like. I have to say that I'm glad that I did because I ended up really liking how this outfit looks, it feels very me. It's got a boho type print, tons of neutrals, and a little bit of thrifted something. I also curled my hair for the first time in forever and I missed it so so much.

 I'm glad I stepped out of my comfort zone a little bit because I know this dress will end up being a really great piece for wearing leggings this fall and winter. I love light-weight dresses for transitioning into cooler weather because they are just too easy to layer with!

 I also think it will be perfect for wearing over my swimsuit this summer. It turns out that taking a chance on this dress may have really paid off. This really makes me reconsider other items I may have looked over in this past... I'm one of those people who always passes up something and later wishes I hadn't.
