Outfits Not Just Clothes

 As of last summer a go-to garment for warm weather has become this pleated skort/tennis skirt. And lately I've been loving to pair it with this white denim jacket. Big fan in general of white denim jackets for spring as seen in this post from two years ago. And I apparently love them for fall as well as seen in this post . 😉 Here, as in previous looks I've kept the outfit to a mostly black and white palette. jacket-J.Crew(similar here ), t-shirt-Stevie Nicks(current merch here  more general options from Etsy here ), skort/hat-Gap(similar here and here ), bag- Everlane , sneakers- Vans I love the graphic aspect of these photos of the cloudy sky against the lush green of Frick Park here in Pittsburgh. It's been a chillier spring than in years past, but we've had a few warm days for bare legs and light jackets. We'll see what the coming summer brings.  Be sure to check back for part 2 of this season's white denim jacket outfits.  And here are some littles that...

Sometimes a good outfit can be a simple t-shirt & jeans, with boots and a blazer for a bit of polish. I also layered in a chambray shirt for some denim-on-denim action, which is a styling trick I really like for spring. Of course this t-shirt serves up a message.  "They Didn't Burn Witches They Burned Women" blazer-J.Crew(similar here ), shirt-Gap(similar here ), T-shirt- TeePublic ,  jeans- Universal Standard , bracelets- Nordstrom , ring-Mejuri(similar here ), boots-DSW(similar here ) On the surface there's nothing revolutionary about this look. Again, a fairly simple formula of jeans, tee, blazer, and boots with a layered chambray shirt. However, the bright orange and how it plays on the colors of the T-shirt, and of course the messaging makes these clothes an outfit.  I'm not going to presume that I'm changing the world by wearing a feminist T-shirt, but it's in the small ways and subtle cues is part of making a difference especially for these two...
