Fashion Friday: A Casual Look with Straight Leg Jeans and T-Shirt

Hello and happy Friday! If you've been following any fashion blogs or have been reading any fashion related magazines then I'm sure you've heard that straight leg jeans are currently (and for a little while now) having a moment. Today I am styling a pair of straight leg jeans (mine are old - from Gap) and a simple striped T-shirt from Kohls. I was shopping for back to school clothes.... now that my daughter is shopping in the Juniors department I always seem to find something for myself :-) I thought this simple scoop neck tee in the raspberry (or deep rose) color would be perfect for the end of summer season and into fall. I love this color for fall!

My jeans are old,  this pair from Target by Universal Threads looks similar to mine. 

I'm linking to a few options below. Remember: these models are all very tall, so they will  be longer on most of us.

AG The Ex-Boyfriend Jeans

Some Cigarette Jeans below. These are a slim straight cut, whereas the jeans above are a relaxed straight silhouette.

AG Prima Ankle Cigarette Jeans 

28" inseam 

This crop style Prima AG is  26.5" inseam and might be a better fit if you are petite.

The scoop neck t-shirt is by SO brand found in the Juniors department at Kohl's. I bought it in July and can't find a link to it now. This rose colored top from Target is similar but without stripes.

The UGG driving loafers I am wearing were purchased last year at the Nordstrom Anniversary sale and are no longer available. A few similar options are linked below. Or you can see all of Nordstrom's Driving Loafers here. Remember, shipping and return shipping is always free at Nordstrom, which makes buying shoes online very easy. 

Vionic McKenzie Loafer

This shoe is also available in wide widths and several other colors.

Born Leather Driving Loafer

Tory Burch Kira Driving Loafer

This shoe is out of my price range, but may not be for some of you, so I'm including it. 

PS: Nordstrom's Summer Sale is going on now! Up to 40% off! Through September 8th!

While it was warm on the day we took these pictures, I decided to bring a thin cardigan along for a fall look. I love wearing cardigans, as a matter of fact I have them in reach all year long because my family members love to run the AC and I am always cold. 

This minimalist style cardigan is from H&M (old). It's made of a thin knit material which makes it perfect for 3 out of 4 seasons. (I need something warmer in winter.) This specific cardigan is no longer available - a few option are below....

BP Longline Cardigan

J Crew Boyfriend Cardigan

Madewell Colorblock Cardigan

I really love this one but the sizes are limited.

My bag is by B.O.C. I really wanted to wear my brown saddle bag again, but I thought this deep red and brown bag would be a good match for the Tshirt. 

For jewery I am wearing a gold-toned necklace I recently purchased from Loft. This is a two piece set and each one can be worn by itself. As you can see the leaves are sized differently and the chain lenghts is different as well, so they can be worn layered. I always seem to go for just one though. 

Speaking of Loft, the store is running a great Labor Day Weekend Sale - 40 to 50% off almost everything. This necklace is an extra 40% off with code: LONGWEEKEND.

Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my blog. Hope you have a fantastic Labor Day weekend! Not too much planned here. Tomorrow my daughter is going to audition for the Nutcracker Ballet (yes it's that time of the year already!!!). Then we might have to go for another pointe shoe try-on (if the order arrives as expected). It's been a struggle finding a pair of pointe shoes that fit ever since she broke her big toe in the spring. I'm positive though as it seemed like she had a good fitting session last weekend, just had to order a size up to get the right fit.

Enjoy your weekend and hoping for some beautiful weather!
