Personal Style | Wearing Denim and a Floral Blouse

September 7, 2016 by Whitney 22 Comments

HELLO THERE! I’m back with a brand new outfit AND a brand new attitude! I’ll get into my new attitude in another post, but for now let’s get into how I styled a pair denim and a floral blouse. Cute, right?! I’ve been wearing flowy tops all summer. No surprise there, I know. I’ve also been wearing this pair of ankle length denim over and over again. For a while I wasn’t able to comfortably fit into them, but since I’ve been walking away the pounds this summer these pants are back to fitting like a glove!

Blouse: Sejour (Another Option) // Denim: JCP (Similar)

I purchased this Sejour blouse while shopping at Nordstrom Rack in Boca Raton, Florida. My family and I were there for a week in July while my sister competed in a pageant. I figured during my downtime I’d do a little shopping. Nordstrom Rack was a short Uber ride from the hotel, so of course I had to visit. While I wasn’t too pleased with their plus size section, I did find this blouse, a really cute pair of shoes and a few beauty items.

The perfect chic and stylish outfit for the fall! #wnjstyle

This blouse is perfect for year-round styling. The material is light, the pattern is fun, and the style is timeless. Although the pattern colorful, it’s still the perfect addition to my minimal wardrobe. Yes, I’m still on the minimal style wave. No worries; a minimal style update coming soon!

Heels: Kenneth Cole, Bloomingdales (Another Option) // Necklace: oNecklace

So tell me, do you like the way I style denim and a floral blouse? Let me know!

Thanks for stopping by today! I hope you’ve been enjoying the summer. Until next time, be blessed and stay safe…XO!

Personal Style | Sejour at Nordstrom for (More) Plus Size Casual Wear Options

November 9, 2015 by Whitney 19 Comments

This weekend I finally headed to the mall to return and exchange a few items. My first stop was Nordstrom. I had a spring jacket that I didn’t get a chance to wear, so I figured I’d exchange it for a seasonal item I could style now. I headed to the Sejour section and began looking through the casual wear sweaters and blouses. After a few minutes of browsing, hubs actually picked up this sweater. I’m so glad he did because I LOVE IT! It’s lightweight, easy to style, and fits perfectly.

Top: Sejour, Nordstrom (Same) // Leggings: Premise, Marshalls // Clutch: Love, Cortnie (Same)

In keeping with my casual wear theme for the fall, I knew the top would be a good wardrobe addition. I went with a size 0X/1X and the fit was exactly how I like – flowy and loose fitting, but not too baggy that it looks sloppy.

The top, a bit pricey for some, was worth the investment for me because I know and trust the brand. Sejour clothing is made very well and the materials are always extremely durable. Check out a few of my other Sejour favorites below for the season, as well as the exact sweater I’m styling in today’s OOTD.

Along with the casual wear options above, I also wanted to share my favorite linkup from last week. Style blogger and fellow DMV blogger boo Kasi (The Style Perk) looks so stylish in this striped dress. The burgundy hat and tote bag are the perfect addition to this casual and chic outfit. As mentioned in this post, hats are great accessories to style this season. Looking good, Kasi!

Style | Wearing Shorts on the Weekend + Style Linkup

July 6, 2015 by Whitney 38 Comments

This weekend was absolutely wonderful! It was also humid, very busy and rainy, but nonetheless it was wonderful. I spent most of the days with family, which is always a great thing. Knowing that I was going to be busy I decided to wear shorts and a lightweight tunic on Saturday. Hubby and I joined my family at the River Hill 4th of July Parade. My little sister rode in the parade while representing her title, Miss American Teenager, Preteen. It was a lot of fun and she, of course, had a ball riding in a drop top white mustang. 😉

Tunic: Sejour, Nordstrom (Same) // Shorts: Target

Wearing shorts is something I haven’t always been a fan of. But over the past few years, I have embraced my body and shape and wearing shorts has been part of that journey. Regardless of your size, shorts during the summer months is a must. As long as their appropriate and fit nicely, I say go for it!

Regardless of your size, shorts are a summer wardrobe must have. #wnjstyle

Clutch: Love, Cortnie // Sneakers: Nike Fit Sole, DSW (Another Option)

Speaking of wearing shorts, my favorite linkup from last week was Cheryl of Oh to Be a Muse. I love Cheryl’s easy breezy outfit, and not to mention her hair! She always styles herself perfectly, head to toe, regardless of the season. She’s true to her personal style and looks great in these Zara shorts!
