Spring Style Challenge

In the Fall I had decided to do a blog series that followed different pieces of clothes that we all have hanging in our closet yet always find ourselves wearing it with the same outfit. However, I took a break and only managed to do one. My Jcrew herringbone one found here. My challenge is to start digging through and finding ideas you may not have thought of before.

So over the next few weeks I'm going to find a few pieces in my closet that I tend to only wear with the same outfit and bring you 4-5 new outfits! So as I do this I encourage you all to do the same thing! Maybe if you have a pair of colored shorts you always wear with that white t then maybe you can try a top with some texture or print! 

Today I'm doing my blue shorts from Old Navy! I always wear the same black t shirt with them. It's a loose baggy one also from old navy but I totally need to spice it up a little!! So then began the digging! 

This plaid shirt (similar) is a staple in my closet but for some reason I never thought to pair it with these shorts. I was honestly probably scared of too much color (work with me here! I'm still getting used to not wearing all black) I love this though for bright summery days! This plaid shirt is one from old navy that is a gauze material so it is super lightweight and sheer. I am honestly excited to wear this outfit now!

I have had this anchor shirt for so long (I'm talking like 2 years) and I think I have worn it twice. I always fight with myself when I purge my closet on whether I should hold on to it or not. Clearly I haven't given it up yet. I just love anchors, y'all! This necklace is also a favorite that I try to find reasons to wear it but since I always wear black it just doesn't get the wear it should!

Okay, so we all know I adore this top (similar). I am always finding a reason to wear it! I can't help it, I just absolutely love something about a classic black and white stripe. Its just so classic! Just like the monogram necklace! (similar)

Hmmmm. Its like I have a polka dot obsession, too! Oh wait I totally do! I just love fun prints and I cannot hide it! Through it with a candy colored necklace and I'm ready for a fun lunch with the girls! (shirt, polka dot cardigan)

Okay so this might be my favorite and not just because I have my Kate (similar). Its something about the crisp white with the blue and black contrast. This is going to be perfect for a summer day! I can't wait to throw this on!

Do you have some colored shorts that you just have no idea what to do with them? Do you have more ideas for me? Send me some! What will you try new this week?
