one thing i keep in mind when building my wardrobe is affordability. clothes do not have to cost an arm and a leg in order to be stylish. another factor i keep in mind which you may have heard me talk about before is versatility. i want the pieces in my wardrobe to work for me unless it is a special occasion item that i know is reserved for, well, special occassions. that said today’s ootd is a sweater and quilted moto jacket that i paired with a blue skirt several weeks back. it was an outfit fit for any office environment. but when the same sweater and blazer is paired with a pair of boyfriend jeans the look easily converts to an after-hours outfit. i added a pop of color with red heels and clutch which give the outfit an element of sophistication.

The pop of red is what makes this outfit. Well Done!!
i love how changing the color of your accessories changes the entire outfit!
