This week Chelsea and I are taking on "Cocktail Hour." Gone are the days of weekends at the bar, but getting invited to a cocktail hour or Girls' Night and home can be great. I'm going to cover how to dress and Chelsea has the best idea for a "Mix Your Own Beer" Bar. Say what? Look for the link down below to go check Chelsea's post out!
As I've gotten older I feel like I've done a pretty good job of perfecting work wear, weekend wear, my casual style, and church clothes. However, I feel getting dressed for a girls' night or cocktail hour is tricky. My 20-something's self was a pro at this...my 30-something self is not. Today's look is one that I think is perfect for a cocktail hour after work or night with the girls. I really like the polished look a blazer gives, but the sequined top takes this out of the normal realm of work wear. I also love the contrast of the black top with the fitted white jeans. Add a heel and some jewelry with bling and you've got a great cocktail hour look.
Blazer: Loft $30 (gift card from Chippmuck.com) same
Top: Express cute option
Jeans: CAbi $5 (thrifted) similar
Necklace: Stella and Dot Sutton
Heels: Bandalino $30 similar
I've decided to start showing you some options for similar pieces and take some of the work out of shopping for you. Here are some great cobalt blazer options; I'm loving the second one.
