I bought this blazer and skirt from a local consignment store recently. They’re both Banana Republic pieces, so it kinda makes sense that they go together perfectly. They’re versatile pieces that will, for sure, mix really well with my existing wardrobe, but I seem stuck on wanting to pair them all the time. The first time, I wore a white top – boring! – so this time I threw in a wild card. Chartreuse is pretty much the definition of wild, right?

I know this is supposed to be more of an office style-oriented blog, but can you guys handle a couple more weekend outfits? The warm weather means I can still take photos outside, and thank God for that! The basement dungeon is giving me the sads, y’all.

Hey, look: cute vintage pendant. I bought this a year ago on my first trip to Ottawa. Since, I’m heading back there again next month, I’m on the lookout for another sweet souvenir. If you’re got some recc’s on places to stop in, let me know.

And, now, for something completely different: schoolmarm chic!

OK, I probably should have kept this one off the blog, but … eh. I’m currently knee deep in final revisions for my book, and on top of work and family commitments, I’m just about tapped out – of words and creative mojo. So, until next time, I’ll leave you with a couple more photos of my oh-so-fashionable weekend look.

I have two modes on weekends: simple casual, and boho. You don’t need three guesses to figure out which category this outfit falls under. Well, the title is a dead giveaway, for one thing. Plus, there’s nothing simple or casual about this silk Etro tunic. Just look at that pattern mix!

Here’s a better look at the bazillion different prints and textures going on:

In all honesty, this outfit is a total mish mash of things that may or may not go together, but which all serve the important purposes of (a) keeping me warm, while (b) wearing a completely impractical-for-the-weather garment. But that’s the beauty of boho, right? Mish mash is its middle name. That’s how I’m calling it anyway.
