Three Steps to Simple Style

Despite what you may think, looking put together doesn't require a ton of time and energy.  Today I am  going to show you how to put together an outfit in three simple steps using items you already have in your wardrobe.  Who's excited?

Before we get started, let's get one thing straight.  I'm going to assume you have pants on.  If you don't, put some on.  Pretty much any pants will do aside from sweats pants, other lounge pants, pajama jeans etc.  We're talking actual pants, with structure, and maybe even a zipper.

Ok let's begin.

Step 1:  Put on a graphic tee.  (You can wear a plain tee if you're boring.)

Remember my uber-talented artist friend?
He designed this shirt.
It's called "Remember the Day Before."
You can buy one here.
I'm wearing a large.

Step 2:  Slap on a cardigan - maybe in a bright color.  I chose emerald green, which happens to be Pantone's color for 2013.  (What can I say?  I'm cool like that.)

Step 3:  Add a scarf

Is anyone else singing this blog post like the Special Agent Oso song?  (If you have a preschooler and the Disney channel you'll know what I'm talking about)

For those of you who are clueless, watch this:

You'll be singing that all day.  You're welcome.

So there you have three easy steps to a casual, comfortable, and put together look.   And, if you watched the video, how to wrap a present (just in time for Christmas!)

Tee + Cardi + Scarf = simple, easy style.  This isn't rocket science people.  

Have a fantastic weekend!
