Wild Card Wednesday: Casual Neutrals

Last week, I featured a sheer lace dress that's perfect for a night out, but for this week's Wild Card Wednesday, I'm taking things in a more casual direction.
Sweatshirt:  Eloquii
I've paired boyfriend crops with neutrals for a soft and easy look.  The weather is starting to turn chillier, so this sweatshirt layered over a button down top was a great choice for a casual dinner with the family.
Jeans:  Torrid (Similar here and here)
Earrings and Ring:  The Limited
Booties:  Target
The embellishments on the shoulder and the overlapping hem give this sweatshirt a little more style and interest than your typical grey sweatshirt.
Glasses:  Firmoo.com
Button-down shirt:  The Limited
I am not a big denim person, but I do love the laid-back feel of this look and the oversized fit of the sweatshirt.  Comfy and cozy - my favorite cool weather words!

What does your version of fall casual look like?

Catting Around

I've been so excited about this skirt.  I ordered it in early March, but due to shipping delays, I just recently received it.  
Skirt:  Eloquii (Available here)
Then, of course, like virtually everything, it was too long for me.  The underpiece of the skirt fell right to my knee as shown, but the longer portion of the skirt was mid calf length.
Camisole:  The Limited
Jacket:  The Limited
Clutch:  The Limited
Since I wanted to keep this skirt as an option for work, I didn't want to go too short.  I kept the length of the shorter part of the skirt as is, but opted to have the longer part of the skirt hemmed to below-the-knee length.

I was able to keep the cool effect of the skirt while still keeping the length work-appropriate.

Heels:  Target
For my first wear of this skirt, I actually opted for a non-work look, pairing it with a bright leopard print camisole and cobalt moto jacket.
Earrings:  Torrid
Ring:  Kohl's (Gift)
This look is perfect for catting around town!

Tickled Pink: Blushing Zebras

I wrap up Pink Week today with a whimsical dress look that I'm planning to wear to work soon (the weather here took a cold turn, boo hiss).
Dress:  The Limited (Available here)
Blazer:  New York & Company (Available here)
The zebra print is so fun, but I love that it is almost abstract enough to also appear as just a pattern from a distance.
Necklace:  Shoxie.com (Available here)
Ring:  Purchased at local jewelry show
Earrings:  New York & Company (old)
The soft cream color has just the slightest pink tint, so this blush jacket was an easy pick to pair with the dress.
Purse:  New York & Company (old)
Black shoes and purse ground the look and give it a little more seriousness that makes it work appropriate.
Shoes:  Target (old)
Do you like animal prints on clothing?
