Ultracasual

An easy look to start off the week: this is definitely one of the most casual outfits I've worn in a very long time, but it was perfectly suited for a yummy lunch at Burgoo to meet Tessa last week. The neutral canvas of the clothing provided an optimal chance to debut my prized Tory Burch Reva's which I picked up at a consignment shop for $38 (brand new!) a few weeks ago. I love that they look like they were dipped in bronze!







Wearing: Zara leopard blouse and skirt, H&M chambray shirt, Tory Burch flats, Coach parka and bag (both c/o Coach)

I can't believe you got Tory Burch flats for $38!! That is amazing! Great find! This outfit is adorable - the leopard peeking out of the chambray is such an unexpected touch, I love it!! And yes, you mentioned before that you thought we had the same Joe Fresh bracelet (I think that's what I see you wearing here!) and I totally went and bought it after seeing it on you! It was absolutely perfect, and I believe 50% off when I went to buy it - can't beat that! ;) It's one of my favorites, I seem to wear it with just about everything! Hope you had a lovely weekend, doll! xo.

Those shoes were a steal! I'm loving the layering you did with the leopard blouse and chambray shirt!

That Coach parka looks great on you! Would be such a nice layering piece for pre-fall. Great steal on the flats too!

I cannot believe that you got those for $38, I still have never found a bargain like that in a thrift store. But I am going to keep hoping Still looking forward to the matcha kit kats :)

The layering is amazing, Jen! I never thought that leopard and chambray could look so good together (& layered)! You're a total genius, I must copy this look! Hahahaha :D

Nothing cheers up an outfit like an electric blue purse (with gold hardware!!!) ;)

Thanks for the YT link. That 90-year 'young' lady is bombastic! :D

I love how you layered the chambray over the leopard print. So unique! And $38 for TB Revas is unheard of!

cute & little

WHAT A STEAL. If only size 5 were in abundance at consignment stores :( You look super adorable, and god you have flawless skin! Also, I'm insanely jealous of your lunch at Burgoo, I LOVE Burgoo <3

Just found your blog - love it! And I'm now a follower, too! I love how you layered this look - and the leopard top is my favorite. Plus, the cobalt blue just pops - allover fashion goodness!

Totally cute! I love that this look is ultracasual for you- typically, I think of ultra casual as jeans and a t haha. I actually got my Revas for around the same price (I think they ended up costing around $50) on ebay. They have great stuff if you're willing to look/spend a little time!

Love the leopard blouse underneath your button down! It almost looks like a scarf. Will have to try that sometime!

You found Tory Burch flats at a consignment store for 38$? Go you! For a casual look, this outfit is incredibly stylish- I love the layers of khaki, chambray and leopard print. And those gorgeous Revas are the perfect finishing touch for any ensemble :)

LOVE IT!!! you did such an awesome job with the layering. looks wonderful.

I love that this is your "casual"...you should see my casual. Pilly lululemons, a mens cashmere sweater, and Havainas. Seriously haha. I love this look, so chic and I love how you added in little details like the rolled up sleeves and touch of leopard to pull everything together. You look stunning as per usual!
