Pinspired: Casual transitions

After two very long weeks of being sick I am finally starting to feel better and rise to the ocassion of blogging in this beautiful new Spring weather! I'm sorry my posts have been rather sporadic, but I'm glad to be up and em'. Thank you for stopping by my little corner of fashion in Indy! This look is perfectly simple and cozy, when I saw it on Pinterest I fell in love! My two favorite things are style and well actually queso, but my third favorite is being comfortable and that is this outfit to a tee, but if I get all three of those things I'm truly one happy gal!

Pinspired: Fur love

Today's Pinspired post is a simple chic look that's really set off by using a hoodie under a fur vest. This simple trick makes the look much more accessible for an every day look. This epic fur vest can sometimes feel a little "too much" for a casual dinner, but this look is perfect for just that! Topping it all off with a fluffy bun and there you have it, a fun, simple, casual, pinspired look.

Pinspired: Screen Sweatshirt

It' a snowy day here in Indy! To keep warm in this seemingly neverending winter, I wore my coziest sweatshirt. This sweatshirt still has that perfectly fuzzy new sweatshirt feel, it's something to be revered until it's been washed too many times. Anyone else know this feeling? The Pinspired look is so cute, I love that I can switch up the style of the sweatshirt, throw on some booties, and tights and still achieve this trendy look.  I am such a fan of the screen tee/sweatshirt, people have really started to glam up the screen tee and wear it for professional looks, going out, and generally fancy affairs. It's no longer the jeans and tee look, although that is still definitely a fun comfortable look! Thanks for stopping by on your Sunday, have fun out there you little snow bunnies!

Other items in the look:

Pinspired: All over black

Today's PINspired look is this super chic all black look. I love the way she utilized some leather to really make the look pop! I opted to bring my statement jewelry to my ears, featuring my LeTote lovelies. I am a huge fan of monochromatic looks, I think they work so well for a ton of different events and occasions. I try to bring in some sort of texture or tone to break it up a bit, such as my fun earrings. I am in love with her quilted version of the skirt, but c'est la vie, this is pINSPIRATION, not magical Pinterest closet! Which, why hasn't anyone come up with that yet?

Pinspired: Blanket scarf

Today's pinspiration is from Because Shanna Said So. I loved this super chic, super simple look. It perfectly straddles the line of professional and casual. I wish I had this periwinkle blazer, but I opted for black, since it went well with my blanket scarf. The combo was also perfect for the weather, since it's not too cold, but the scarf was a necessary addition for a little chill in the air. I love this pinspired look, because it can be switched around and be used as inspiration for many different looks!

I'm obsessing over this Pinspired post! I found this amazing look on the blog The Corporate Catwalk and although my look is a little different, I was mostly inspired to try this 'out of the box' tie look. I really want to try and style an outfit more like hers, but I'm loving this combo too! Menswear can be a really chic way to amp up an outfit! Look at Emma Stone this year at the Golden Globes with her pantsuit. Popsugar also wrote a great article on this androgynous style! Popsugar Article Link

Fashion is all about switching it up and pushing yourself out of your style box. We all have one, but that just makes it even more fun to do something different on occasion! 

What's your favorite menswear piece to rock?
