I also happened upon my newest blog love "Pretty Shiny Sparkly" where Kristina puts out a series of challenges titled Bloggers Do It Better and the latest theme challenge is Sequins. So, to kill to birds with one stone, I decided to pull two challenges into one post with this outfit below. I just love when things fall into place so nicely. ^_^
The temperature this past Monday decided to drop from mid-50 degrees to oh, let's just say beyond-freezing-cold degrees, so forgive me for looking chilly in the photos. =P
Glam Outfit:
H&M winter coat; AX tuxedo blazer (similar); F21 purple blouse (old) and gold sequin skirt (similar); F21 black tights; Nine West booties (similar); caterpillar necklace from Bar III; Amrita Singh Shearwater cuff; Chanel medium bag in black caviar
Work Outfit:
H&M winter coat; J. Crew ruffle cardigan (similar); F21 purple blouse (old); Express Editor pants (similar); BCBG satchel (similar); Enzo Angiolini booties (similar); Target leopard belt (similar) and gold watch (similar); caterpillar necklace from Bar III and Amrita Singh Shearwater cuffAs you can see, my Bar III caterpillar necklace came out to play again - love the versatility of this necklace! You can also see how I styled this necklace here and here. You can also see that I kept a lot of my accessories from my glam outfit into work, which I typically don't wear that many accessories to work. I had a lot of fun pulling these outfits together for the challenges. Hopefully this post gives you an idea of how to style an outfit from glam to work for the woman-on-the-go. Thanks so much for reading!

Add CommentWow! I love that tweed coat (can't believe it's H&M!) against your sequin skirt. And the purple and yellow look so refined in your day outfit!
Your blouse is absolutely stunning, especially paired with the cardigan. I've been looking for a top like that for a while, but never can find the perfect one.
Oh, the layers and textures are stunning!!
Love your acccessories in the glam outfit!
Hello there, adorable coat! I second R.L.'s statement...that coat is H&M? Me likey. =)

@R.L. Thank you! when I saw the coat, I thought it was too cute to pass up and got it on sale for $30! =D
@CynthiaC thanks! I got this top at least 2-3 years ago, but I'm sure F21 will come out with something like it again. they typically recycle their items every once in awhile.
