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?

Sweater Season

If you follow my blog, then you know I love jackets, but I wear very few cardigans and sweaters.  
Pants:  The Limited (Available in other colors on-line here)
 I just tend to find most sweaters boring and a little too classic for my taste.   For me, the basic cardigan usually feels too conservative while most attempts at adding additional details and flair leave me cold.
Sweater:  New York & Company (Similar styles here and here)
Blouse:  The Limited
I'm always looking for more unique knitwear because I do love the softness that sweaters provide.  I am definitely drawn to oversized sweaters - grandpa/boyfriend cardigans, cocoon sweaters, etc.  Maybe it's just the desire for comfort and warmth when the temps drop, but I always seem to opt for big cozy sweaters.

I love this tweed sweater coat because of its interesting shape.  The faux leather trim adds a cool detail that makes this sweater feel a little more polished and less casual than most oversized sweaters.
