Today’s casual Friday look comes to us from the blog Crystalin Marie. I like the relaxed, totally chic vibe that the outfit has. It’s this kind of easy cool that I’ve always admired/envied.
One. This black trench coat from London Fog is a great basic (also in plus-size). If you want something slouchier, I recommend this one from Solemo Mio.
Two. I know Alexa Chung is today’s “It Girl” but $350 for jeans is insane. Looking for inexpensive distressed jeans? I suggest the Old Navy Rockstar. Need something dressier for work? I recommend a straight leg black pant like this pair from Ann Taylor.
Three. I chose this Frame t-shirt because I love a scoop neck tee and they are so hard to find. Need a nice t-shirt that doesn’t set you back a pretty penny? Try this $15 Everlane v-neck.
Four. Aviators forever. They’re just my favorite. I love their classic feel and timeless cool factor.
Five. I don’t wear a watch often, so finding an inexpensive, functional watch was nice surprise. Looking for something more expensive/better quality? I recommend the Philip Stein brand.
Six. I love scarves for layering casual looks. This camel-colored scarf is stylish and cozy. I also like this sable-colored LoveQuotes scarf; their scarves are so large, they look like they might swallow you.
Seven. A simple leather belt is a nice addition to any wardrobe. This Fossil one is nice. You can also find great ones at vintage shops and thrift stores.
Eight. This reversible slouchy tote is a great, inexpensive item. If you’re on the hunt for something a little nicer, people rave about the Cuyana brand. I recommend this Madewell tote.
Nine. I’ve given up on ankle boots. My pear-shape just won’t allow them to look as good as I want. If you can rock them, these inexpensive Dorothy Perkins boots are a nice choice. Need another option? I think a black d’Orsay flat is a solid choice.
