Casual Style: March Madness

Mar 17, 2011

It’s still a bit too chilly outside for shirt sleeves and skirts, but I think an anorak or utility jacket is the perfect solutions.  And should any of you ladies find yourselves dragged to the bar this weekend to watch college basketball (sure, there are a few of you who would go willingly), your sporty jacket and a pair of skinny jeans will be the perfect mix of casual and cool.  Add a silk blouse with a banded collar and a tassel necklace and your all set.  

P.S. This orange bag is under $100, so get over to Lori’s Shoes and buy one before they sell out.

    That orange bag is a direct rip off of the Mulberry Alexa bag. I know that styles trickle down to lower price points, but they copied the bag right down to the braided handle, and the tabs that hook around the back. Tacky. At least try to put your own spin on it.

It’s allegedly spring. However, for every minute of sunshine, there seems to be an hour of rain and gloom. So while I’d love to wear lighter spring pieces, it’s time to bring on the layers.
