Outfit Post: Feminine 90's Grunge

If wearing plaid shirts and ripped denim is wrong, then I never want to be right. I can't get enough of the 90's revival trends - especially these two together. It's fun to make past or previous styles more modern with bold colors (like purple plaid) and feminine accessories (like metallic pumps and mirrored aviators.)

I've been falling in love with everything plaid lately. Scarfs (like this one), shirts, pants! Have you seen these from Old Navy?! So cute!

If there's one thing I love sharing on my blog, it's how to take trends and make them your own. You guys know I'm from the school of "Wear What You Like." But it's still important that while you're wearing what you like, you still have made the effort to look your best.

Target Plaid Button Up (last season - here is this season's version)

American Eagle Jegging in Light Grey Destroy (are you sick of these yet?)

Shoedazzle Lisa Rose Gold Wedge Heel (sold out - loving these at Nordstrom!)

Sole Society "Sia" Satchel

Jennifer Zeuner Cursive Nameplate Necklace (gifted) || Zero UV Mirror Aviators || Michael Kors "Bradshaw" Watch 

Even though there aren't a whole lot of moving parts to this outfit, I still love it. Sometimes, simplicity is the best way to feel stylish. Give me messy hair, oversized watches and comfy jeans any day. Plus I think you can never go wrong with some Rose Gold pops.

I know this plaid shirt is from last season but I've got several fun and affordable options for you try below. Happy Tuesday everyone!

Today's #BADxGameDay outfit is a 90's inspired one. Which actually doubles perfectly for October weather. Sometimes it can be hard to dress for College Game Day when the afternoons are in the upper 70's but then the evenings are in the 50's. This flannel tied around my waist was perfect while spending time outside before last week's insanely, crazy, ridiculous Notre Dame game. My OCJ Apparel tank top kept me nice and cool in the sun. But once it got dark and the temps dropped, I was able to wrap that flannel around me and keep me nice and cozy.

I'm doubly excited for today's post because I've got an AWESOME giveaway! I've teamed up with one of my favorite Game Day brands, OCJ Apparel, to give you $150 store credit!! Ummmm... talk about AMAZING! You can choose anything from their store included the fabulous branded jeans (seen on me here) or a pair of shorts, or a tee/tank! This is the ultimate college-football-slash-fashion-lover's dream! Here's the rafflecopter - good luck!! Oh and Happy Friday y'all!

Holiday Party season is in full effect and if you're not sure of what to wear - don't worry! I'm sharing an easy and super simple outfit idea today!

 

Somehow I went from owning zero plaid items to over 3 in less than 2 weeks! I guess that's what happens when you realize there's a big ol' hole in your wardrobe! I wore this plaid and leather combo to our building's holiday party last week. I knew it wouldn't be super fancy but I still wanted to look chic and festive! My recently acquired Target purple plaid button down was just the piece I needed to pair with my leather mini skater skirt. I could have gotten the red option to be more "Christmasy" but I figured I'd get more wear out of the purple (I also got this black and white one too.. oops!)

 

Next I just layered on some super fun bangles, a crystal statement necklace (that you can score for $15 by using code BEDAZN or BEDA15 for 15% off your order!) and a cheeky transparent clutch. Normally, my credit cards and ID are just floating around in there but I got the brilliant idea to use my Business Card holder from Graphic Image as a pseudo-wallet for the night! Everyone loved that you could see inside my bag as well as a peak at my card case's personalization stamp :)

 

And BOOM! I was comfy, covered, cozy and totally Christmas party worthy. You could rock this look at your work's party or even a neighborhood get-together that's not going to be extremely dressy. It's been an mix of extremely busy days and terrible weather the last couple of weeks so I apologize for being slightly MIA. Hopefully I can get some more outfits up this week! Happy Monday everyone! xox
