Casual Weekend

So, you're going shopping and out to lunch with a couple of girl friends. You want to look cute, be comfortable, and look like it was effortless.



Tee: by Moral Fervor, available at Junk In Our Trunk for $72. The deep scoop neck is fab and the banded sleeves are a very nice departure from your typical tee. I adore the obscure print and especially dig that the fabric is unique, as it's made from corn!

Cropped Jeans: Love these. The slim leg is sleek and sophisticated, the dark wash is rich, and they are just sexy. Dress them up or down! Available at Girlshop.com for $152 by J Brand.

The bag. Oh, the bag. Look at this beautiful piece of work. Available in three colors, you have a lot of options to suit your tastes. The quality look phenomenal, too. I think the weaved strap is so fantastic, it makes it *that* much more appropriate for spring and summer, if you ask me. Though, it can and will work with all other seasons, too. This is the kind of bag you should buy! It's called Colleen and it's available at Rapp and Posavek. They know bags!

Jewelry. We all love jewelry, don't we? It can make the simplest outfit absolutely stunning. This branch necklaces by Twigs and Heather is gorgeous, handcrafted, and all of them are one of a kind. It will go with anything, too- but, I think it would work with this look especially well. Available at Twigs and Heather for a super affordable $125.

Cute shoes are another thing that can make a very simple (sometimes boring, sadly!) outfit turn into a unique site. Mohop creates incredible sandals -available in three heights- "made from recycled tires, a Finnish birch plywood core, and topped with various select veneers." How cool is that? Not only are they handcrafted, but they are recycled, as well. How amazing is that! I'm not going to go into all of the details here, but you can change the way the shoe looks a billion different ways. Go do yourself a favor and checkout Mohop shoes. Not only can you buy the fab Hibiscus sandal for $150, but you can see all the different ways to wear them, too.

So, this outfit is sexy casual, earth friendly, and budget friendly! Each piece can work in many ways- good buys, indeed!
