The BEST most COMFY statement earrings! I’ve always loved statement earrings, but I stopped wearing them for years because they were always too heavy and hurt my ears. Not these! These are all LEATHER, which makes them *incredibly lightweight* and easy to wear all day. They’re so comfy I even nap in them! 😆 These are also the best quality leather earrings out there. They never curl and never flip around like cheaper knockoffs do. They look amazing all the time! They have tons and tons of styles, but these are some of my favorites and most-worn through out the years. I usually wear size M. http://liketk.it/2GhP3 #liketkit @liketoknow.it

Let’s talk COMPLETER PIECES! . Last week in my “Shop With Intention” post (scroll back in the feed to find it) I said one of my requirements when shopping for tops is that I could pair it with several different completer pieces. Several people asked what completer pieces were, so let’s talk! . Completer pieces are things like cardigans, blazers, vests, and fitted jackets like denim or utility or moto jackets. Throwing on one of these completes your outfit in magical ways. . And they provide several benefits: 1. Defining your outfit. Take a take a tee + jeans from casual to dressy by switching completer pieces. 2. Mixing up your outfits and helping you create several different looks with the same pieces. 3. Pulling together your outfit magically! 4. Giving you an extra layer to stay a little warmer. So practical. 😄 . Yes, it is possible to pull together looks without completer pieces. But during the spring when a light layer is welcome, these are fantastic ways to remix your wardrobe and pull together looks! . Shown are some of my favorite types of completer pieces. This has been my short list of favorites for years: a denim jacket, cognac moto jacket, grey knit blazer (knit is better for casual style—super comfy like a sweatshirt), mustard cardigan, navy twill blazer, and utility jacket and utility vest. Literally been wearing these for YEARS, so if you’re worried about any of these going out of style soon—don’t be! Classic, classic, classic, and always a great addition to your wardrobe! .

BLOGGED: Workwear pants! As we’ve been talking about business casual style, I have been building my own little business casual capsule. After all, in order to help you with work looks I actually need workwear. :P As a result, I tried on a bunch of workwear pants and I'm reviewing them today!

Whenever you find yourself with heart eyes 😍 from the beautiful clothes at a store, how do you make a decision about whether or not you’re going to buy it? . Do you usually buy things at random and on a whim? Or do you have a list of criteria and shop with intention? . I used to buy things on a whim, and while that rush of having new pieces felt good at first, it resulted in a closet full of random pieces that didn’t go together and didn’t always serve me well. . About 8 years ago, when I was figuring out how to build a mix and match wardrobe, I started shopping with intention. I learned from mistakes, created criteria for purchases, and refined that criteria as I went. . Every piece I buy needs to work in certain ways. For example, I need to be able to wear a top with 3 different bottoms and 3 different completer pieces. My jeans all need to work with booties AND flats, not just one or the other. I had criteria like this for different categories of clothes. . And now, years into it, I absolutely LOVE my closet! I still shop of course! But I waste way, way, wayyyyy less money on pieces that don’t serve me well. Everything in my closet goes with tons of other things, yet I find it super versatile. It gives me so many outfit options, and I’m seldom bored with it. And you guys have seen my wardrobe—it’s not an outrageous size! . I’ve never been as content with my wardrobe as I am today! Honestly, I wasn’t sure if I’d ever feel this content, but it’s possible. And it started by shopping with intention. It took a lot of trial and error, and I share what I do on my blog in hopes to save you some years of trial and error and expedite the process for you. 😁 . If you want to shop with intention, check out the criteria that set my foundation building a remixable wardrobe! It’s in my very old blog post from the Building a Remixable Wardrobe Series, Part 2: Shopping for Remixable Pieces. Find it by heading to my blog’s menubar —> Building a Wardrobe -> Building a Remixable Wardrobe Series —> Part 2: Shopping for Remixable Pieces. .

RE-STOCK ALERT! This fringe necklace is one of my go-to, most used accessories for a few years now! I wear it to dress up casual outfits and to finish off dressy look. So, so versatile!

Several of you have asked about my necklaces looking longer than when you wear them. I extend most of my necklaces using, um...string or a hair tie. 🙈😂🤷🏻‍♀️ My hair usually covers it so I’ve been lazy. Ha! But you can buy necklace extenders on Amazon. Linked to a pack you can get! .

They are necessary for creating a remixable wardrobe—they’re like the glue that connects the statement pieces. . This navy sweater is a GREAT basic!

How do you organize your closet? I used to organize everything by color, and while it looked extremely pretty, it actually wasn't helpful for me to get dressed each day. Now I do something totally different! . To others, my closet may look like it's organized somewhat randomly, but it makes perfect sense to me. And it helps me get dressed even more quickly!💯 .

You guys are encouraging, warm, and upbeat, and you make it fun to connect here, on Instastories, and through DMs!

BUSINESS CASUAL QUESTION! I’ve heard from over a thousand women about what’s appropriate in your business casual work environment and I can safely say this: It is ALL. OVER. THE. PLACE. Ranging from jeans being totally okay as business casual to no jeans but colored denim is okay (???—why does this make sense to employers? 🤷🏻‍♀️) to strict no jeans and closer to business professional and everything between. There is a spectrum of more casual business casual to more professional biz cas, all under the name of “business casual,” and every work environment has a different standard. It’s truly all over the place! . So, I’m curious. If you work somewhere with a BUSINESS CASUAL dress code (not casual, not business professional), which of the outfits above would fit your workplace? 1, 2, or 3? A combo of them? All of them? . I’m working on business casual Starter Kit Wardrobe Guides and want to know how casual or business-y most of you need to dress for work. 😊 TIA! http://liketk.it/2zT0U #liketkit @liketoknow.it #businesscasualstyle #puttingmetogether #pmtoutfits
If you work from home, do you still get dressed each day—or at least WANT to get dressed? 😆 I still get dressed everyday. Even if it’s not fancy and just jeans, a tee or a sweater, and earrings. (And fuzzy slippers of course. 😉) I feel like it kickstarts my mindset into “work” mode and helps me focus. If I don’t get dressed, I’ll spend my day meandering and wasting a lot of time. . My go-to combo is usually jeans and a striped tee or easy sweater. BUT one way to freshen up that combo is change the jeans to colored bottoms—just anything that’s not regular blue jeans. Super, super easy! . And if you have not heard me preach on the importance of colored bottoms yet, head to me blog, use the search bar, and type in “importance of colored bottoms” to find Part 3 of my Building a Remixable Wardrobe Series. It miiiight just blow your mind! 🤯 . @liketoknow.it #liketkit http://liketk.it/2zU4c

Ever had to build a wardrobe from scratch? Thanks to the MANY life transitions we as women go through (entering the work place, changing jobs or industries, becoming moms, leaving jobs to be stay at home moms, going back to work, etc.) we often feel like we have hit a new stage in life and now don’t have the clothing we need for it. Aka, we are starting from scratch again. This is the reason I created Starter Kit Wardrobe Guides! . THE GOAL: Make the process of building a wardrobe less overwhelming and WAY more attainable.💥 . I show you a select 9 core items, 1-2 pairs of shoes, and a couple accessories and turn them into 9-15 outfits. Then I show just 6-10 more items to add to get a whopping 22-33 more outfits! Allowing you to build slowly but strategically. . Currently Available for “Everyday Casual” style for ALL SEASONS! Winter ❄️, Spring 🌷, Summer ☀️ or Fall 🍁 available, all filled with timeless pieces! Use the link in my profile to check them all out! *Note: The shopping guides will be kept updated during the 3 months of each season. http://liketk.it/2zQuc @liketoknow.it #liketkit #puttingmetogether #starterkitwardrobeguides #winteroutfitinspo
