I have the hardest time finding pants that fit well. Doesn’t help that I have quite a few pairs in my closet that no longer fit, or at least fit the way they should. Since I’m finally coming to terms with that reality, I’ve starting purchasing a few pairs of new bottoms to diversify my wardrobe (can’t be a million tops and two bottoms!). These Gap khakis are my happy new addition. They’re cozy and totally perfect with flats, yet can still head to work with a pair of heels. And, ps: I’m totally addicted to this burgundy hue, particularly when it’s paired with leopard. Have you tried this pairing yet?

For those days when I’m heading from a day full of meetings to an evening event, be it a cocktail reception, happy hour or a work event, I love to balance a bit of sparkle and fun with something professional that can take me through the day without a quick 6 p.m. change. An outfit like this is a favorite for its weekday versatility, and both of these pieces can go so many ways. I’ve worn this top with black pants for work and with denim for a Saturday afternoon (and it reminds me that I can also mix gold and silver!); I just scooped up this skirt, also from LOFT, and it’s much needed: personality without a too-short hemline!

This was I-must-get-out-the-door-in-two-seconds (and take these photos before daughter tries to jump in each!). While — as you know I normally gravitate toward a big colorful necklace to punch up a look — this outfit felt most natural without it. I just got this blouse at H&M and it’s a new favorite. Not too baggy, not too tight (replacing an old button down I have just donated since I’m finally being honest that if/when it fits again the fit will be outdated! ) and it’s light-weight for year-round wear. Had it been cooler, I would have thrown on my new leopard coat I’ve been dying to wear and swapped out the heels.

Ahh, date night! We headed to Hard Rock in Ft. Lauderdale on Saturday night to see Jerry Seinfeld and I had about two seconds to throw something together. I’ve seen seeing bloggers put an oversize blouse with a skirt and the ‘drop waist’ style is in now, so I thought, hey, let’s try this while I’ll be in another city. Ha! So much to get dressed up when it’s doubtful you’ll run into other people you know, right? I know it brings out the adventurer in me. While this isn’t crazy or anything, it was a new style for me and I’m loving the result. Since the skirt has an elastic waist the blouse didn’t work partially tucked in so instead I hiked up the skirt a bit, and let the shirt hang (with the skirt at the original length, it looked blah, the dimensions were off). I adore how the ankle straps give it a sexy vibe, even though my top half is totally covered.
