This outfit is inspired by the ever fashionable Jill from Jill’s Good Life For Less.
Lacking inspiration, I went over to her blog to see what she was up to- and I saw this cute outfit, which I just love!
I decided to skip the scarf, and instead added a little burst of color. But basically it’s the same idea- white skinny’s, paired with a t shirt and a short trench coat.
I’ve got on my gladiator sandals (which let me tell you, are seriously the most comfortable sandals in the world- along with my Danskos, these are the best!).
In my before picture I have my jacket buttoned all the way to the top- and also have on my bootleg jeans. This looks frumpy because the jacket has no shape.
By opening the jacket, rolling the sleeves and showing a fitted t shirt underneath, I now look more stylish. Plus, it’s fun to see the bright burst of color mixed with these neutrals.
For a change, I decided to try it with the coat belted… what do you think? Yeah or Nay?
Linking up with Pleated Poppy for What I Wore Wednesday!
Love these sandals. They are so comfy!
Better belted or not? You decide!

I like belted better, but unbelted still works too! cute outfit.
I like both. The belt gives a nice shape to the outfit!
I like both but prefer belted. Think it looks more office appropriate belted! Like the bright tee with the neutrals!
I prefer it unbelted, but it looks cute both ways. And your gladiator sandals are amazing~ love them!
I like both versions, belted a bit better. Love the shoes-do you remember the style name? I looked on zappos & didn’t see them. Thanks!
Hi Lynne!
Thanks for your comment. Here is the link to the sandals. I got them in a different color- but this is the same style. I just bought them 2 weeks ago at a speciality boutique in Los Altos. Good luck!

Thanks, Megan! Not sure how I missed that.
I love those colors together. I need some white pants!
I like the belted better but they are both cute. Love that burst of color!
