10 Pieces, 15 Ways: Spring Style

Happy First Day of Spring!!!
Last Friday I posted five spring trends that I was loving (see post here). This week I want to share with you some ways to style a couple of those trends (gingham and sporty). I have picked 10 essential items and have styled them 15 different ways. I hope that this post will bring you some inspiration of using pieces that you may already have in your closet (styled new ways for the new season) without having to totally update your closet for the Spring temperatures ahead. (They are coming, they HAVE to.... right!!?!)

 Gingham top: Target

Lace Top: Hazel and Olive, VeryJane
Bicycle cardigan:Target 
Distressed boy jean crops: American Eagle Outfitters
Chambray dress: Old Navy 
Mint jeans: Charlotte Russe 
Ankle Booties: Kohl's
Nude/Beige pumps:Kohl's
Sparkle flats: Target
Leopard scarf: Kohl's
**These are just examples, you can substitute many things that you may already have in your closet instead of shopping new like for instance: any button up cardigan will do, if you do not have a chambray dress you could do a chambray shirt and jeans, any colored jeans will easily sub in, and you could do just about any scarf you  have!**

How are you planning to re-style your wardrobe for the warmer temps?

Is there a piece in your closet that transitions easily?

Thanks for stopping by, there is a high of almost 40 degrees here in Michigan today!! :)

Closet Remix Challenge: Week Two

Week two of the Closet Remix Challenge proved to be full of temptation. With the Spring season approaching, I have seen many new styles and trends that have enticed me to want to shop!! Prior to this challenge I would frequently make many impulse buys simply because I thought [said item] was something I just HAD to have RIGHT then. This week I resisted the urge to buy several things on impulse; reflecting to myself: "How often would I really wear that pair of shoes?" and "Is that shirt really something that I need to buy right now?". I may not be moving mountains over here but I am getting over some small obstacles!! Now, let's get to the recap of days 9-15.

I want this month's challenge to be an honest and open one so I must confess to you that I did make a purchase this week... Despite being able to reason with other temptations and impulses, Kohl's did get the best of me. My mom just so happened to send me some AWESOME Kohl's coupons (30% off, $10 Kohl's cash and two $5 coupons) that I could not resist using! But, I did only buy one top and it totaled $7!! My husband used up the rest of these awesome deals and bought himself a couple pairs of jeans.
I knew going in to this challenge that it would be just that--- a challenge! I do not necessarily see this as a failure in my journey this month for I feel like I have made some significant improvements and I am realizing just how many clothes I really already have! I plan to continue to carry out my no shopping agreement for the rest of this month and continue to gain a control my shopping habit in future months. Let's just say this is a minor hiccup! :)

How are you planning to transition your wardrobe from Winter to Spring? 

Are there staples that you have that makes the switch a little easier? 

Thanks for stopping by!! Hope you are having a relaxing weekend! Don't forget--- Tuesday is Recipe Day so stop back for this week's recipe!

Three Ways to Mustard

A color that I love that has followed Fall in to Winter is mustard. It is almost like a neutral but adds just a small pop of color to your outfit. One great thing is that it goes with basically anything or any other color! Here are three ways that I styled the color mustard with a scarf, top and cardigan!

Scarf: VeryJane (MommaSweetPeaCrochet on Etsy does an amazing job on blanket scarves though and I believe you can custom order your color! Find her here)
