Thanks to the ever changing and fast moving world of technology, we're busier than ever. I'm guilty of trying to cram a million things into one day. Thankfully, I'm fortunate enough to have a group of fellow moms who live no more than a 10 minute walking distance from me who are a back up support to each other whenever help is needed. Once every few months, we would make the extra effort to catch up over a glass of wine at a local pub or restaurant. Let's face it, we love our husbands and kids to bits but we'll love them even more once we've managed to get a breather from them as well.
By the time I tuck Lil L in bed after dinner, homework and bath, I barely have time to change and get ready for an evening out with my friends. Often, I would wear the same outfit, swap the accessories and voila, a different look.
**A huge thanks to my photography guru, Alice of Lingered Upon who taught me how to create collages. Always cheerful and exceedingly patient with my million and one questions. This girl's going places. Check out her amazing photography here.
I always love your outfits!!!!
Love this. Must. go. buy. that. jacket.
I love how you've shown that a change in accessories can basically change an outfit. I love both the day and night versions. Great post!
i seriously LOVE your outfits they are always so classically chic and elegant!!
You have the best jackets !
This one and the Chanel....both beautiful AND functional .
Please tell me not to keep on snapping up bargains : I've a wardrobe of quirky and lovely things , and guess what ? Nothing to wear !
Estrella, I've physically stopped myself from walking into stores. My wardrobe in NZ was made up of pieces I purchased from sales. None of them go with each other so I know exactly what you mean. I'm one of those that can't live without lists. I make a list of what I want/need and seldom deviate from it.
It`s incredible how simple it is to transfer an outfit from day to night! Love this combination, and I`m a huge, huge fan of the classic Chanel jacket! Beautiful!!
Ahhhhhh... gorgeous! effortless! As your style always is! And I love your comment to Estrella - WALKING INTO STORES are dangerous. I will physically stop from now on. Been a maniac the past month with all the sales going on - I get so easily distracted when going out to buy milk or bread that I come back with bag loads of clothes and I still have nothing to wear!!!!
Oh I love the way you put together these outfits - that's how "easy" it can be done if you have a little bit of your talent - beautiful!
Practical and amazing! Love this post!
That jacket is divine - and so is everything else!
Oh dear, the busy lives of moms. Any outfit can be transformed from day to night with a few key pieces and creativity :) Really like the jacket here!
Hello gorgeous jacket! Oh man do I dream of adding something from Isabel Marant into my closet!
Gorgeous suggestions! I'm thinking of how much time one can save with such few adjustments. This is perfect for girls on the run!
You make me wish I was going out at night more often now!
I love both looks too, this is what i would like to active rather than having "good" going out clothes and rags for day.
Love this day to night post!! It's true that just accessories make such a difference! And I might email you about collages!
Thanks for sharing Alice's blog too!
Sam, feel free to email me. My photoshop skills aren't the greatest but I'm more than happy to help.
I always love how simple and easy you make it look to transform and put each outfit together. With just a few changes if accessories, there goes a new and unexpecteda fabulous set. Brilliant.That jacket is super pretty.
I love both outfits! Your Evelyne PM is gorgeous!
