From Work To Play

Friday, May 17, 2013





Standout in neon and cobalt this summer! A blazer paired with shorts is a perfect transition outfit from work to play.

I love blazers, and wearing them with shorts in the spring/summer is the perfect way to keep them active in your wardrobe. I for one am definitely not ready to shove my favorite blazers to the back of the closet. I see them as a timeless piece that not only can be worn to work, but also out for a night of fun. I love this cobalt blazer from Loft in particular because the color is subtle enough for the office yet vibrant enough for after work festivities (looks like cobalt may be the new black). Paired with a neon pink tank, this look is stylish, bright, and professional! 

Have a lovely weekend everyone and thanks for reading!
