A Jean Safari

Evening Chica's! It's been a long day. One full of exciting activites, but TGIF! I was going through my outfits and ended up playing dress up... yet again. This is one of the outfits I put together. I call it: A Jean Safari.

I am so in love with this afro-centric wooden necklace that I snagged for just under two bucks at the thrift store. I've had this olive/army green shirt (Old Navy) for a couple years. I threw on some dark wash skinnies and because I was inside, I didn't have to worry about a blazer or sweater or even a fall/winter shoe.

The clutch can also be used as a crossbody/messenger bag that is great for quick errands and light traveling.

The whole outfit gave me a very earthy feeling, hence the title "A Jean Safari". What do you think Chica's?

Sincerely,

A Geek Chic Chica

Hey Chica's, Happy Saturday! Today was a very low-key day for me, but of course I still dress for any possible occassion. If you know me, you know I loooovvvveee bright colors; hot pinks are my very favorite and I love me some yellow! I had my two girls with me today (no school) so being comfortable is an absolute must.

I bought this skirt in yellow and coral from Old Navy on clearance for $3.00 each. The skirt is cotton, very lightweight (not the best option for windy days btw, unless you want a Marilyn Monroe moment) and breathable. The white tee is a heavier cotton with a little spandex also from Old Navy ($8.50).

These mustard flats... I adore! Super comfortable and because of the color against my complexion, can be easily worn as a "nude" neutral with several outfits. These were $10.

The rest of my outfit is thrifted. My dark wash denim blazer was $4.98, the yellow wooden beaded necklace was $1.98, and the light brown clutch with a woven detail (see below) was $2.98.

My outfit's total cost: $31.44! Wow, I can't believe how little I spend to look so fabulous sometimes. I live for a sweet deal!

I was feeling very mellow in my yellow today :)
