just a t-shirt and jeans

This is my typical casual outfit.  Some kind of jean and t-shirt combination.   What makes this outfit special are the little pops of color brought in by my accessories.  Wouldn't you agree that this outfit is somewhat boring without them?   You can literally jazz up old pair of jeans and mix in some chunky or dainty jewelry to bring in little focus points.  Whenever I'm looking for something simple I reach for my baptism medal and chain.  It adds just the right amount of extra.   I love mixing in chunky jewelry an ultra feminine outfit. Just as I love mixing simple jewels much like what you'd find at My Jewelry Box to a masculine outfit such as the boyfriend jeans and blazer look.   

How do you play up your boring outfits?

boy meets girl

If you've been around a while you know that one of my favorite contrasting looks is something incredibly masculine with bits of feminine.   It's been hotter than blazes the past few days and when I knew I'd be in a hot box all day for the Rochester Feis (Fesh; Dance competition) I opted for this really loose boyfriend button up.   I was cool and bright!

This weekend flew by - between teaching dance Friday for my partner who was still away, the Feis Saturday and then my sisters graduation party yesterday - it's been insane.   I had a blast, though.  Spent time with some family I haven't seen in a very long time.

How was your weekend?
