Daily Threads: Neutral


  

 
top: c/o Karen Kane
cardigan: j crew
pants: tj maxx
shoes: c/o modcloth

You briefly saw this outfit during my Karen Kane $200 Giveaway post (enter if you haven't already - only a couple days left!). I didn't want to give away the whole thing so I could save the look for today. So, yeah, I've already worn this, but do you really care about the actual day I'm wearing a look? I didn't think so. 

I love this look - I'm just going to go ahead and throw that out there. I love all the neutrals on top of each other. I love the over sized cardigan, the casual loafers, and the skinny black pants - all pulled together with a delicate, beaded top. I feel like I belong in a J Crew ad. 

So yeah, second week in a row with no Freestyle Friday. I've been handling the emails, but not posting on some of the inquiries lately. Sorry about that. I'll get back to it. I just wanted to get at least one "daily threads" post up and this was the only day left in the week. You do the math.

    Great exhibit that less is more! Black and white combo is always pretty but the shoes where just the perfect choice, awesome!

    I love those jeans. I've been on the prowl for a pair of black skinnies, since the ones I have clutch my calves in ways I did not realize at the time of purchase. Love your look with these!

    You look so good, Linley! I am so envious of your legs, they are perfect for skinny pants, you totally have a model figure! And I love that you paired the flowy top with the skinny pants.

    Have you started your new job yet? Good luck with that! :)
