Fashion over lunch, what more could a girl want?

Today was the day of our fashion luncheon. As promised, here are the pictures of my "three way" walls inspired by A Bigger Closet's "Wear it 3 Ways" series where she takes one article of clothing and styles it three different ways. I will try to post some more fun pictures of the event if I can get my hands on them!

The first set features J Crew's Ink Dot Dress styled three different ways, I had picked up this dress on final sale in store and haven't worn it yet but now I am ready to break it out!

Left-Vintage Hem extender slip, Level 99 Denim Blazer (Anthropologie), Belt-Old Navy, Necklace-Steinmart
Center: J Crew Ruffled Celosia Cardigan, Leather Woven Belt Banana Republic, Presta Wedges Target
Left-Pleated Chiffon Cardigan-J Crew, Red Pumps-eBay, Pearls-Tiffanys

Second set featuring Banana Republic's Silk Ruffle Tank (not online but still in stores): This tank is one of my favorite recent purchases! Easy to wear and the color is delicious.

Left-Linen Jacket-Shade Clothing, Jackson Pants Banana Republic, Cluster Necklace-The Loft, Super Skinny Belt-J Crew
Center-J Crew Vintage Matchstick Jeans, Cotton Corsage Cardigan-J Crew, Scarf-Downeast Basics
Right-Leather Motorcycle Jacket-Banana Republic, Pants-Old Navy, Necklace J Crew, Vera Woven Sandals-Banana Republic

Third set featuring J Crew's Sunshine Peonies Pencil Skirt. I just love this skirt so much, it was hard to narrow it down to just three looks. This skirt goes with everything!

Center-J Crew Maya Cardigan, Tissue Garland Tank
Right-V Neck Cardigan Ann Taylor, J Crew Tuxedo Tank, J Crew Bouquet Sash Belt

Fourth set featuring an Old Navy Sweater Dress. I love this cowl neck dress but it was a challenge styling it three ways though now I have no idea why.

Center: Pins-Loft (purple) Limited (tweed) and ? for the bow, Leggings-Nordstrom, Kady Boots-Target
Right-Skinny Jeans-Banana Republic, Red Flats-The Gap, Crochet Hoops Etsy seller TaniaNovaCrochet

Lastly, here is what I wore to the event, I wanted to keep it fun and casual. It is hard to tell here but this jacket is a pale pink and so are the shoes. Hope you all are having a great weekend.

Off to Work (how strange)

Yesterday I wore an outfit I just loved but I couldn't find my camera as I ran out the door to fill out my final paperwork and get my schedule. When I saw how many hours I was lucky enough to receive, I proceeded to uncontrollably sob the whole way home so I figured that picture of me would not be too great.  *don't fret if you are applying for a seasonal position, I actually accepted a full time temporary position for an employee who is on a leave of absence*

Today, I am pulled back together and trying to keep in perspective that this is temporary and I will see my kids again and they won't be emotionally scarred forever. This is the cardigan and pencil skirt that I picked up at Target, it is part of the Merona collection and the quality is amazing for the low price! For fun I added a silver ruffle top to mix with the gold accents.

p.s. Gigi, I am trying to get those sale dates for you, I did see the hint!! :o)
