Inspiration and Beyond

Today's outfit was inspired by this street style pic:

Image c/o of Who What Wear and their recent feature on Girls with the Best Accessories. Here's my take for yesterday at work:

blazer-Banana Republic(more blazers here), blouse-J.Crew(similar here), cargoes-Saks off Fifth(similar here), wedges-Sole Society(similar here), necklace/bracelet-Le Tote, sunnies-Ralph Lauren(similar here)

First off, wedges are really the only heel one can wear in the grass, and second I pretty much nailed the street style inspo pic, right?! Of course, as I've illustrated many times (here, here, and here) replicating the inspiration isn't the goal, but more so capturing the feel/stylish essence of the original. On the flip side, inspiration pics should give you new ideas on how to wear/style pieces you already own for a new, fresh look! 

Beyond the inspiration for this outfit I really enjoy this silhouette--skinny bottoms with boxier top/blazer with heels. You can take that idea and run with it in a hundred different iterations, which is ANOTHER great thing about inspo pics, they get your creative juices flowing to have you outfitting in new and exciting ways!
