Weekday Wardrobe

April 29, 2017 by Katie Haller

I’ve been so bored with my work clothes lately. I sometimes miss getting to dress up nice and wear lots of different outfits. I love to dress casually, but sometimes it gets boring. That’s why this week I decided to challenge myself to step up my casual style by simply adding a couple accessories and styling my outfits a bit differently. Some of the little tweaks that I made with my outfit was simply tucking my shirt in a little and cuffing my pants. I also tried to accessorize my outfits with some kind of necklace to make them look a little more fun.

Here are my looks from the week…

Weekday Wardrobe

March 11, 2017 by Katie Haller

Back when I first started my blog, I loved to document what I wore to work every day. It always challenged me to come up with new looks using all the clothes in my closet. It’s been a really long time since I last did a weekday wardrobe post, so I decided it was about time for one.

I always struggle with getting dressed for work in the morning. Let’s face it…Preschool teachers aren’t normally known for being very stylish people, but I try my best not to fall into that stereotype. You never know what messy activities are on the plans for the day. We paint, play with playdough and you never know who will accidentally get a marker on your sweater. That’s why I never spend a lot of money on my clothes, especially my work clothes. I try to dress smart, practical, comfortable and of course… stylish too. My work clothes transfer over into my mom’s life perfectly. I spend my whole day with other people’s kids, then I come home and take care of my little guy. My workweek wardrobe would also be great for stay at home moms as well.

Here is what I wore to work this week…

Monday

Cardigan- Savers

Tunic- Old Navy

Leggings- Last Call Neiman Marcus

Shoes- Nordstrom

Instagram Outfit Review- Winter Looks

February 1, 2017 by Katie Haller

Hey everyone! I can’t believe that it’s February already! Time is just flying by! I’m sorry about the lack of post lately, but I’ve been super busy. Ever since I went back to work after Christmas break it’s been one thing after another with doctor appointments, a sick baby, work stuff and preparing for a move. It seems like there is always something, but hopefully this month things will start to settle down. My family and I just moved into a new house, which was definitely a challenge to do with a baby. It’s all worth it though because I love our new home. It’s the perfect place for our little family! It’s always fun to have a fresh start, but it always comes with lots of projects and of course a wish list of all the new home accessories that I want to buy. I know that it will all get done eventually. Until then, I can’t promise that many blog posts. I have lots of ideas in my head of all the things that I’d like to write about, unfortunately, I’m lacking in time. Until I can get together some time to put together some new posts, I thought that I’d do a quick round-up of my Instagram outfits.

I have found this winter to be hard to dress for. I think one of the problems with the winter in Las Vegas is that it’s not cold enough to wear actual warm winter clothes, but it’s still too cold to wear non-winter clothes… if that makes any sense? The mornings have been in the ’30s, so it gets kind of hard to take an outfit selfie on my way to the car, that’s why I’ve been slacking on sharing my outfit of the day.

Here are my looks from this winter so far…

Coat- Old Navy

Sweater- Target

Jeans- Meijer

Boots- Burlington Coat Factory

Purse- Neiman Marcus Last Call

Top- Target

Jeans- Nordstrom Rack

Purse- Coach

Shoes- DSW

Weekend Wardrobe- Casual Mom Style

January 16, 2017 by Katie Haller

It’s been so long since I last did a weekend wardrobe post. Lately, my weekends are spent around the house and running errands. We are moving at the end of the month, so I feel like I am just preparing myself for our move. I also had a sick baby this weekend. My poor little Jack had his fourth ear infection since September. It’s so frustrating because I hate seeing him sick. He doesn’t eat or sleep well when he’s not feeling well and it makes me sad to see. Luckily he’s getting better.

To go along with my non-eventful life, I’ve been embracing a very casual mom style lately. I’ve been really obsessed with a couple of my accessories from my closet that really help to dress up my casual looks. I recently bought a pair of converse tennis shoes (here) and I’m loving them! I’ve also been using my black satchel purse (here) that I bought this past fall. I haven’t had a chance to use it that much, because it’s smaller than my other purses and I’m always needing to lug around a bunch of baby items. But as Jack gets older, I’m able to run to the store without bringing all the extra diapers and bottles that I used to.

Here is what I wore…

Instagram Outfit Review

November 7, 2016 by Katie Haller

It’s time for another Instagram outfit review. I’ve been posting so many of my daily outfits on Instagram, it’s kind of replaced my weekly “What I Wore” outfit posts. It’s just easier lately to take a quick outfit selfie, rather than put together a full blog post. When I find the time, I like to do an overview of my favorite looks from the past month or so.

I am loving the weather right now. It’s absolutely perfect. Mornings are cool and the afternoons have highs in the 70’s and low 80’s. It’s the perfect kind of weather for layering, which is my favorite way to dress.

Here are some of my looks from the past month. As always, I try to link my clothes, but because many of my clothes are older and I buy so many of them on clearance or at thrift stores, I’m not always able to link it to the exact item. However, I always try to find similar affordable items to link up. Unfortunately, I’ve had a hard time finding similar items for a few of my accessories, so I will just list the stores.
