Style Me November - Week 3

I bring you week 3 of the Style Me November Style Challenge. If you'd like to read my previous posts on the challenge, read week 1 here and week 2 here. 

It's in the Bag:
Top: LOFT
Boots: JustFab Astana

As I mentioned on IG, I absolutely adore these bags. They are pretty much all I carry any more. They are super handy and the print goes with everything. I put all the baby stuff in the tote and all my stuff in the zip top pouch. If I ever don't need the baby stuff, I can just pull the pouch out and use it as a clutch! 

Oversized Chic:
Boots: JustFab Landry
Scarf: Walmart (similar)

I didn't really have anything oversized, but this ModCloth tunic was close enough. 

Makes Me Feel Ladylike:
Cardigan: ModCloth Charter School Cardigan in Navy
Shoes: B.O.C. (similar)

Pretty much every dress makes me feel ladylike, so this prompt was easy!

Blue Moon:
Sweater: Elizabeth & Clarke (swapped, similar)
Leggings: Old Navy Jersey Leggings
Boots: JustFab Astana
Necklace: Versona Accessories 

I didn't have a lot of blue clothing that wasn't navy so I let the necklace be the pop of blue to my super comfy outfit. Sidenote: I got this sweater the day prior, otherwise I would've worn it for Oversized Chic.

Colorful Gams:
Shirt: American Eagle (similar)
Boots: JustFab Acheline

My JustFab Knit Jeggings come to the rescue again since they are the only pair of colorful pants I have with me. 

Pattern Play:
Shoes: Cato Fashions Knotted Flats

Typically I'm all about feminine prints like floral or polka dots, but I wanted to be different and use my LOFT camo skinny pants to do the pattern mixing. 

Denim Dame:
Top: Cato Fashions Striped Drop Shoulder Tee
Shoes: B.O.C. (similar)
Scarf: gift last year (similar)

Since I wore my chambray shirt a couple days ago, I didn't want to repeat it so soon. But Denim Dame, that's easy enough right? Just wear jeans! It's like a bingo free space! I can wear what I want! Holy crap, this was the hardest day this week for me. I had too many choices and too many options. It took me much longer than it should've for me to come up with this combo. Really it only came together because I just bought the shirt last night and I was looking for an excuse to wear it. I did some more pattern mixing and accented it with the leopard accessories. I really like the way it turned out.

Another week down, more creative juices flowing. I'll say again that this challenge has been so much fun!

Come back Thursday for next week's recap, or follow me on my instagram to see it daily!

What I Wore to the Zoo - JustFab Denim and Vans

My sister is in town this weekend "evacuating" from the tropical storm on the Gulf Coast. That's in quotes because it doesn't look like the storm is going to be that bad, but it was an excuse for her to have a sleepover at my house.

To entice them up here, I suggested we should go to the zoo. It was definitely a success with the kids, and it was a great excuse to squeeze in an outfit post since there isn't church tomorrow.

Zoo Outfit
Shirt: PBX Basics from the BX
Pants: JustFab Signature Skinny Printed Denim in Fresh Floral
Shoes: Vans Canvas Authentic

I'm always looking for opportunities to wear my floral denim and I thought this worked out. It's still pretty hot here in Alabama so I don't get to incorporate boots into my wardrobe rotation yet, which I'm pretty bummed about, but I needed some comfortable shoes for walking around the zoo. I have a love affair with Vans lace ups (don't pass out from shock that I wear sneakers), and they were perfect for this trip. I thought they added a cute, casual feel to the outfit.

I can't get over how much I love JF Denim. They are so soft and stretchy, and there are so many prints and colors to choose from. Really anyone can pull off skinny jeans if they are styled correctly and I have yet to see anyone of any size that doesn't look good in the JF ones. I've decided I'm in love with printed denim. I used to think I couldn't pull them off, and even now looking at the pictures on the JF website, I don't like the way they look, but I like the way they look on me. I used to be worried that they were too "young" looking, but I guess I just decided I don't care. I think with the right styling, you can avoid the teenager look, and everyone should at least give them a try.

If you're interested in JustFab, please sign up using my link. Just note, it is a shoe club and if you don't go in each month to "skip the month" they will charge your card and give you a credit to use on any regular priced item on the site. Just be sure to read the terms and conditions. It's really not that complicated, but I like to make sure people are forewarned.

And for funsies, here's a couple pictures of the kids at the playground at the zoo. Enjoy!
