I wore this outfit to work and it was perfect. Dressing for work during warmer weather is always difficult for me, because my office is quite cold but I enjoy going on walks on my breaks in the sun. For this reason, layers like cardigans are perfect because I can wear them inside and take them off for a walk.
Work also requires comfort – I spend a lot of my day sitting at a desk. So pants that don’t hurt my waist while sitting are key and these are great. I kept the rest of the outfit fairly simple to highlight the joy of the sweater with matching shoes and simple jewelry.
Cardigan: I found this at the thrift store, and fell. in. love. The vibrant colored stripes are giving me serious “end of summer, start of fall” vibes and I like the way it sits open but still feels warm. I’ve been trying to incorporate more of that pale blue in my wardrobe as well, so it’s a good fit. The fabric is thick enough to hold heat, but also breathable.
T-Shirt: This is “A New Day” from Target – which I adore for basics. All the A New Day brand shirts are comfortable, fitted, super soft, and super stretchy. They have good length so they tuck easily, but also look fine untucked, which I like. For those into V-neck over scoop, they have lots of a different styles.
Jeans: Gloria Vanderbilt (which are AMAZING for a curvy body). I love that these are high waisted, but also fit snugly over my large butt and comfortable around my large calves and thighs. Calves are a huge pants struggle for me, so I tend towards a straighter fit, but Gloria Vanderbilt does have many different styles. If you’re on the hunt for some jeans, and your bottom half is curvy, I highly suggest trying some from this brand. It helps that they are reasonably priced – running around $20 a pair.
Shoes: Ellen Degeneres brand that I found at the thrift store and I’m obsessed. They are super light, which I specifically hunt for in shoes. They are also very comfortable, and made of a breathable fabric perfect for warmer weather. They perfectly match the beachy vibes of the sweater.
Accessories: I’m wearing my sunglasses which we lovingly call my “Willy Wonka Glasses”, a simple necklace on a longer chain with a mint green bear pendant, and my octopus earrings.
