Who's excited for the weekend? Me! Me! Me! Does anyone have any fun plans? or the opposite, anyone hanging around the house relaxing? Which we all know can be much needed too! I feel like this week has been one of those longs weeks that would never end! But now I feel like I blinked and it's Friday again! Isn't it funny how time can be like that!
So today I'm sharing one of my go to looks. On my days off work or "running errand" days you can find me in something of this variation! There's a few pieces here I need to talk about!
The Leather Jacket
Have you ever had a leather jacket or over-piece that was your go to? You know the one you throw on with everything? Well this is mine. And I bet you if you go try it on, it'll be yours too! So this one is from Dynamite... obviously.. 3/4 of my wardrobe is from there because this is where I work! so slightly biased but seriously let me tell you why it's my favourite! Okay so first of all its technically styled like a blazer, so it's multi purpose. And you all know how much I LOVE multi-purpose clothing! So you can wear it like your normal outdoor leather jacket but because it's styled like a blazer you can wear it with a dress, with a tee, literally with anything. It has a perfect cropped and angled cut that it even goes with A-line styled dresses (which are the hardest dresses to find over-pieces for, in my opinion). It also has this fabric piece that runs along your inside arm and torso, so this piece allows your body to breath (thank goodness, because everyone knows what pleather can feel like on your body on a hot day). So because your body can breath you can wear this jacket indoors and not get too hot! Win, WIN!
The Perfect Tee
I love a good relaxed tee. Dynamite has really nice basic ones and I prefer them because of their length. They're perfect for leggings (my shiny go-to's.. told you, you guys would be seeing these leggings a lot). I occasional get a size up if I want it to be extra baggy, everyone loves a good boyfriend styled tee! I've also found basic tees I really like from H&M and Urban Planet has a good boyfriend fit one so just find one that feels good on your body!
The Fav Sneakers
Okay so these are my favourite "casual" shoe! The Nike Roshe. They're a trendy street wear running shoe that I think have enough style. I've always been the dress up type so when I thought about a casual shoe I wanted, I didn't want to have just any running shoe. I love these because they're cute AND functional. They have a very cushioned sole so they are very comfortable to walk in and have a mesh-like fabric top which feels comfortable on the foot. It kind of feels like it molds to your foot!
If I'm on the go I don't like to carry any sort of big bag, I find it much more comfortable to have a smaller cross body style that is just big enough for my wallet, a chap-stick and hand cream. This one is Dynamite but from last summer so I'll try and link one similar!
To finish a look I like to add some sort of accessory. Here I have a denim button down top tied around my waste but I often will also use a plaid flannel tied around the waist. You could also pair this outfit with a denim jacket if you're not into the leather look or if it's not casual or comfortable enough!
SO get your comfy clothes on, feel cute and have a fun time or a much needed relaxing time this weekend!
