Mom to Work Wear: White Skinny Jeans.
Doing several Style Challenges at once, following prompts, posting a mix of Wintery among Spring Outfits, styling pieces from my casual daily and weekend mom wear to work/office wear and teaching, plus packing for a few days on an overseas trip - yep it's all in a month's work for this blogger. LOL I am glad to do another "Mom Wear to Work Wear" type of post today, while showing you another Spring Essential for me (which I included in my top 10 items): Skinny White Jeans. I love, love this pair from Zara I recently got, and the gold zipper details towards the back on the bottom, adds that much more cuteness. White Jeans are also The Third Thursday theme that Bri does every month, so I am glad I am showing you two ways to wear them, though one feels more Wintery and the other more Springy. Oh well.
First of all, it looks like these Outfits are months apart but the Mom Outfit (on the left) was from the weekend before last, while the Office/Work Outfit (on the right) was worn a few days before that. But you know Sprinter (Spring+Winter). The Mom Outfit was worn during a very cold, rainy day. I love how crisp and striking the shades of Beige and Camel look with the White Pants and if this Outfit is familiar is because I pretty much copied the 2nd Outfit from this post. It is actually the Camel/Beige version of the same Turtleneck Sweater which this time I paired with White Skinny Jeans as opposed to the Black Turtleneck paired with the Black Skinny Jeans. And yes, I am even wearing the same Cognac Boots. That Leopard Beanie was most definitely necessary to keep me warm for all the outdoor walking I did in the rain. Love the slight Pattern-Mixing between the Stripes and Leopard.
For the Work Outfit I also wore some Beige/Camel Shoes but they are Cute, Strappy Pointy Flats and definitely a lot more Springy. I paired my Classic Navy Ponte Blazer which I just showed you very recently with my Pink+Red+White Thrifted, Light/Breezy Plaid Button-down, a long Beaded Black+Blue Crystal Necklace with Matchy Earrings and my Navy+Heart Faux Ostrich Over-the-Shoulder Purse. I did mix in a little Red+Gold+Pearl Braided Bracelet to mix and match with the Red+Navy for some Nautical Inspiration in this Outfit. I do apologize for the Pictures. I think there was a abundance of natural light that was forbidding me from taking nice photos. But I actually love both of these Outfits and they are 100% me. So, what do you think of each look? Would you wear them?

ReplyDeleteThose do look like the perfect white jeans--they're great on you! Love both looks, especially that pretty plaid shirt and those cute flats!
ReplyDeleteI recently got a pair of Zara jeans for the first time in years and love how nicely they fit and feel. Yours look great on you!
ReplyDeletewhite skinnies are my favorite for both winter and spring, and I think you look awesome in the plaid and blazer!

Those flats are ahhhhmazing! And that heart bag! Don't even get me started! I really love both of these looks! It's great that you were able to style such different looks around the same pants (and actually wear them so close together).
ReplyDeleteYou wear white jeans well! I'm much too clumsy to consider white jeans, haha. I don't own very much white at all!
ReplyDeleteThe necklace I sometimes wear on the blog is not a wooden necklace, it's a silicon teething necklace for baby. The brand is called 'Nibbly bits' but I don't know if they ship outside Australia.
very fun looks! you rock the white jeans!

ReplyDeleteYou are definitely making those jeans work for you! I've actually never owned a pair of white skinnies...
ReplyDeleteThese are both my favorite outfits on you!! Xo Tammy
ReplyDeleteboth are great but I love the white with the plaid and blazer, great look
ReplyDeleteI think I've told you before that I love these posts that you do... I am in love with the work outfit, I have not tried plaid with a blazer yet, but I do have a plaid shirt with a little navy in it and a navy blazer that I need to try this with! Also, the little heart on that bag is so cute! Love that entire outfit! The mommy outfit is great too, esp with the fun hat!
ReplyDeleteI found lots of inspiration on pinterest with white jeans and a colored blazer - you totally rocked it here :)
