The Vest

{Tee: Loft | Vest: Old Navy | Jeans: Citizens | Shoes: Banana | |Belt: thrifted | Necklace: Eastern Market}

Is it really October? I feel like I missed a month, or three, this year. The time is flying by. I can't complain though, October is my favorite month! And this year, I'll have lots to celebrate including my birthday, a wedding, a cross county move, and all things pumpkin. 

October is also the month when I start wearing all my favorite vests. I really love a good vest. When I'm not posing for blog pictures, I can often be found curled up on the couch wearing my favorite down vest for warmth and coziness.

WHITE TEE: 3 WAYS (a dailybuzz style 9x9)

When I was selected for the DailyBuzz Style 9x9: How Would You Style The Classic White Tee Shirt, the first thing that came to my mind was the simplicity of a casual jeans and tee look. A white tee shirt has always been a go-to item for me when I want to look comfortable, relaxed and effortlessly chic.

But for this feature, instead of sticking with familiarity, I decided to stretch my creativity and come up with three unique ways to style a white tee. I chose this Loft tee, but any simple white tee will do the trick for all three of these looks.


LOOK ONE: WORKING GIRL
(Skirt: Loft (similar) | Necklace: Bauble Bar | Shoes: INC | Watch: Michael Kors}

For this look, I combined the white tee with a classic, black pencil skirt for a polished, office friendly feel. The addition of a staple necklace in a bright, bold color really pops against the black and white and makes the whole outfit look and feel more fun (and in my mind, fun is always a welcome bonus for office attire!)

LOOK TWO: STATEMENT VEST

For this look, I added some character to my jeans and white tee look by adding a simple black vest. This gives the look a more styled feel and would be perfect for a casual date or an afternoon on the town.

LOOK THREE: SHAPED MAXI
(Dress: Off 5th | Shoes: Anthropologie | Necklace: Anthropologie}

I've had this maxi dress for a while, but sometimes the tie-dye like coloring and the boxy shape leave me less than satisfied when I try to style this dress. Tying a white tee over the dress is the perfect way to tone down the pattern and most importantly, it adds a flattering shape. 

So there you have it. Three not-so-ordinary ways to style a white tee shirt that can easily be recreated with similar items in your closet! And as always, thanks for reading!
