Happy day-before-Friday ladies! My entry is so late tonight because I just had a great workout with my trainer. Now I’m relaxing on the couch with Lulu and ready to show you my outfit of the day.
All three main pieces of this outfit are new, from my shopping trip to LOFT last weekend:
Blouse- LOFT
Jacket- LOFT
Skirt- LOFT
Tights- HUE @ Macy’s
Shoes- Jessica Simpson
Bag- MbMJ
Necklace- Forever 21
Jacket- LOFT
Skirt- LOFT

Necklace- Forever 21
Did you see I finally broke out the tights today!? I was actually excited that it was chilly enough today to wear them! Ladies who live in the south—are you wearing tights yet?
xoxo,
Veronika.
PS- I blew my hair out this morning after using a clarifying shampoo to get all that Redken product out and I can finally really see the shape of my haircut and I really do see how different the layers are from the way they were before ๐

Love love love the tights! I see lots of bloggers wearing them and I'm just waiting to break mine out! It's been super hot here lately though so not a good idea for me yet. I also love the outfit V. Very lady-like and polished!

Pretty! I'm in FL and it was cold here too, finally! ๐
Jennifer says
I love your outfit! Today the weather was great here in the Houston area. It was nice ๐ I am loving that I can start wearing all my boots, jackets, sweaters, etc!
Lilly says
Definitely a nice fall outfit. Skirt has pockets? Major like ๐ Your purse adds a nice pop of color to the outfit.
Mary Ann says
It's super chilly here in Atlanta! I love the blouse!
Michele says
I know you said you love this outfit, but I'm just not feeling it. It all seems to be a little too big for you and I feel like it's tweed overload. :
Whitney says
Great outfit! I really like your skirt and the blouse.
I haven't dusted off the tights just yet! I wear scrubs to work, but I'm hoping to rock them this weekend ๐
Anh says
I love that blouse & jacket!!! Haven't checked out LOFT in a while – maybe I'll hop in there soon!

I agree that it is a little much. I think it may look nice to just have the shirt and skirt or the shirt and jacket, but not all three. But I love all three pieces separate! And I live in South Carolina and also broke out the tights.
LL says
While I am so so so happy to see you breaking away from your standard black dress, I'm not loving this outfit. The skirt seems bunchy around the waist. Is it supposed to fit like that? I just think it's a lot of tweed. I love the jacket, but I think I'd love it more with a solid skirt. And I think the skirt would look better with less volume on top.
Mix and Match says
Both Jacket and skirt are my favorite pieces from Loft. Love your choice of the bag, it polishes the whole outfit.

I adore this outfit!!! It's quite edgy somehow, and I think you mixed patterns with the deft hand of a fashion blogger.
Leena says
that jacket looks great on you!

The jacket is great on you. I also have that F21 necklace!
Sheila says
I kind of agree with Michele, the textures are a little overwhellming and IMO I would choose either the jacket or the skirt. Both look beautiful with the blouse. I love that you mix the textures and patterns. Do you wear the jacket throughout the day or take it off in the office? I never wear skirts but judging how cute they look (and hopefully sliming in my case :)I want to try it!

I like the tights and skirt, but I'll be honest, I think there's a bit too much going on in this outfit. Too many patterns/materials/colors/textures. I'd say pick one standout piece and keep the rest relatively muted. But that's just me ๐

I agree..think the outfit would be perfect if you put on a plain black pencil skirt. But I like all the pieces. The skirt is really cute but needs a form fitting top.

I actually like the textures and patterns. I think you can pull it off being so cute & looking taller than shorter. If I were tweaking the outfit, I'd add a black belt, switch out the handbag for plain black one and pull the hair back. Hair is an accessory, too, and it gives an additional item to look at with all the other pieces, so I'd have it back. I like the mixing, though. I've seen all of those pieces and see how they'd work together irl. ๐

V i love you but this outfit gets a thumbs down ๐ its just bad all over and makes you look frumpy. The pink bag is also pretty bad with the outfit. i hope you take this as constructive criticism, not trying to be snarky but just honest ๐

thanks for the opinions everyone ๐ i still stand by this one…maybe it doesn't photograph as well as it looks in person. I agree it's a bit "much" but I kind of like that about it ๐
thanks again for the constructive feedback!

Oh no no no. This looks like an outfit my crazy Aunt Mildred would wear. Thumbs way down. You just aged yourself like 20 years. What did people at your office say?!?!?!?

@anon I actually got compliments. Oh well.
Ruby Mines says
I love this look. esp the combination of textures- silky and tweed. The length of the skirt kept it young as did your hair and necklace. Very very pretty. btw i know i know that this is supposed to be a place for people to express their thoughts but its still suprising how people can tell you that they dont like your outifit! so impolite. you look fantastic! ๐

It's an awesome outfit! Wicked textures and colours (perfect for fall) and put together really well, without it being over thought…does that make sense? Good for you for taking a chance with it! You pulled it off well! I wouldn't have imagined those pieces combined–but success…weird when that happens!
Amanda says
I love this outfit! The jacket is so stunning!
Melissa says
I have been reading your blog for quite awhile and this is the only outfit I outright just don't like. I agree it's tweed overload.
