Project Fab: Wardrobe Staples

Jeans and Blazer

When I picked up these jeans and booties at Marshalls, I knew they would be perfect for Fall. A great pair of jeans will always be essential to the foundation of a wardrobe. They are one of the most versatile items of clothing, and a closet classic. I was drawn to the wash of this pair, and when I put them on, they fit like a glove. The booties were a last minute cart addition, edging out a glass beverage dispenser, but I totally stand by it. I know I’ll be wearing them a ton.

Yesterday, I talked about how much I love trying trends at Marshalls. It’s also a great place to go for homegoods, furniture, shoes and accessories you can actually afford. When Marshalls sent me $100 to spend, I set out to show just how far that money can go. So, when I stumbled upon a bright pink Kate Spade blazer for $50, I resisted. Although it was an amazing deal (and super cute), I’m glad I stuck to my plan. I got a faux leather pocket tee, chambray shirt, pair of jeans, and a pair of booties for less than $2 over my $100. At regular price, I would have spent double that total. Enough said!

    LOVING this outfit. The boots are so unexpected, but they give this look a dressed-down-but-still-pulled-together feel. Also, I cannot BELIEVE you said no to a Kate Spade blazer in hot pink. Willpower, girl!

    • Thank you! One of my style goals for this year is to push myself outside of my comfort zone and think more creatively when I’m putting together outfits…hence the booties 🙂 Um yeah…the blazer was pretty, but I realized I would wear these two things more.
