Always Time for Vintage

by J9 STYLE • 7 April, 2013 • 6 Comments

With my crazy work load and grad school projects coming to a close, I haven’t been able to tend to my precious blog or satisfy my shopping cravings. I’m going through fashion blogging withdrawal! To ease the ache, I attended the Vintage Clothing and Vinyl Record Affair at one of my favorite boutiques Retromended. It was a fun event to celebrate vintage fashion and music and hang with fellow bloggers.

Casual Friday Argyle Sweater

by J9 STYLE • 29 March, 2013 • 5 Comments

Although it’s technically spring, we’ve had a few cold snaps in Florida allowing me to still wear layers and boots. I’ve always been on the fence about argyle sweaters. I’ve debated this before here.

Sometimes, I love them and other times, I feel like I belong on a golf course. Whether you love or hate argyle, the print works well for casual Friday at the office.

Argyle Sweater: $8, on clearance from Target (similar at JC Penney)

Collared Shirt: $24, Express (really old)

Skinny Jeans: $15, Old Navy

Statement Necklace: $8.95, Forever 21

Black Riding Boots: $25, Ross

Sunglasses: $5, Stein Mart

Total Outfit: $85.95

How do you feel about argyle? Love it or hate it?

Polka Dots and Cognac

by J9 STYLE • 8 March, 2013 • 10 Comments

I was traveling a lot last month and my first stop was southern California. The weather was beautiful and it gave me a chance to experiment with different shades and prints.

This outfit was sort of an accident, but I kind of love it. I planned on the weather being a lot cooler and the sweaters I packed stayed in my suitcase (that is my unnecessary jacket in the back).

Polka Dot Tunic: $16, Marshalls

Grey Jeans: $20, Target

Sunglasses: $5, Stein Mart

Purse: $12, on clearance at Target

Cognac Boots: $74, on sale at DSW

Total: $127

Would you wear gray, cognac and polka dots together?

What is a combo you thought wouldn’t work at first and then tried and loved?

Lace Tights and Head-to-Toe Black

by J9 STYLE • 1 February, 2013 • 2 Comments

Because I love color and prints so much, I rarely ever dress in all black. I wore this outfit to a bachelorette/bridal send-off party recently and the weather was cool enough to warrant tights and a light jacket. Lace tights are a busy print, so I decided to keep the rest of the look minimal so the tights were the main focus. I couldn’t help but add a dash of color with a simple necklace.

Occasion: Bachelorette/Bridal Send-Off Party

Dress: $10, on clearance at Macy’s

Faux Leather Jacket: $25, Ross

Magnet Necklace: $6, Sol Boutique

Lace Tights: $10, DSW

Wedge Boots: $15, on clearance at Target

Total Outfit: $66

Find Lace Tights:

Left to right: Express ($17), Forever 21 ($4), Neiman Marcus ($18)

Do you wear lace tights? If so, do you like to pair them with prints or solid colors?

Basic Blazer and T-Shirt

by J9 STYLE • 25 January, 2013 • 6 Comments

I forgot how fabulous a basic blazer, t-shirt and jeans can look! I wore this outfit to dinner recently and loved how chic and comfortable I felt.

A simple outfit like a blazer, tee and jeans can serve as a canvas to get really creative with accessories. I took advantage of this canvas to wear my new statement necklace and aztec print clutch.

Black Blazer: $15 on clearance at Target (similar here)

White Tee: $5, Material Girl on clearance at Macy’s

Statement Necklace: $7 on clearance at New York and Company (scored this on Black Friday)

Cropped Jeans: $15, Marshalls

Gold Bracelet: $0 (was in my Goddie bag during my Lucky Mag NYC trip)

Aztec Print Clutch: $14, Dots

Black Pumps: $0 (got them during my Miami Marshalls trip)

Total Outfit: $56

What’s your favorite way to dress up a t-shirt and jeans?

J9 Outfits: White After Labor Day

by J9 STYLE • 26 September, 2012 • 10 Comments

I realize I’m wearing white after Labor Day, but I think most of you will agree that this rule is old-fashioned. If wearing white after labor day is wrong, then I don’t want to be right!I wore this recently to a local food truck bazaar. Although I love the end result, wearing white shorts really isn’t the smartest choice for an outdoor food event. I love white clothes, but I’m really too much of a klutz to not spill anything.

Shirt: $12.99, Marshalls (similar here)

Shorts: $20, Target (similar here)

Stacked Bracelets: $15, various places

Watch: $19.99, Sacramento Airport

Sandals: $15, on clearance from Dillard’s (similar here)

Necklace: $0, gift

Yellow Purse: $12, Stein Mart

Total Outfit: $94.98

Have you jumped on the Food Truck trend yet? How do you feel about wearing white after Labor Day?

J9 Outfit: Casual Friday Edition

by J9 STYLE • 7 September, 2012 • 13 Comments

It’s Friday! And that means it’s time to sport another casual Friday look. I recently acquired this fun cardigan a few weeks ago and it feeds my stripes obsession. Another part of this look that I love is that it has the slightest hint of fall. Sweaters and boots, here we come! This outfit also reminded me of back-to-school time and is something I would wear if I were in school (well, I am in grad school, but that doesn’t really count).

Cardigan: $16, Dots

Purple Tee: $5, on clearance at Old Navy

Raspberry Belt: $3.48, on clearance at Target

Jeans: $8, on clearance at Target

Necklace: $8.95, Forever 21

Nude Flats: $20, on clearance at Macy’s

Total Outfit: $61.43

If you were/are in school, what would you wear on the first day?
