Ladies' guide to daily outfits and accessories that you can afford with items even from your own closet
 
I put this look together for a friend that had asked about finding these specific items. The shirt isn't exactly the same, but a very similar design. I am almost positive I found the exact purse. However, it is rather pricey. Well, by my standards it's a bit pricey. I still put it in the gallery, along with a cheaper option if you so prefer. Also, I didn't do jeans because I'm sure everybody out there has a pair they can use for this outfit. 
If not, you know where to find me!
 
I would like to promote this cause too since my good friend, Amber, works directly with individuals with brain injuries. It's an ever growing concern as the number of people with this continues to increase.

You can show your support by wearing the color gray sometime this month, which really shouldn't be too hard since I'm sure everybody has something gray within their wardrobe. 
However if you don't, you should check out below.

Below are some great items in gray that you can purchase to show your support.
 
March is Multiple Sclerosis Awareness Month. I personally ask you to show your support by wearing the color orange sometime during the month of March. This cause hits close to home as my father-in-law has been battling multiple sclerosis for some time now. 

Below are some great items in orange that you can purchase to show your support.

When I put these two together I just knew it was a perfect pair. I absolutely love this specific blue color paired with these green pants. Not only that, but the boots just complete the look. This has to be one of my favorite looks that isn't a Pinterest Knockoff.

This is a great outfit that can go from day to night. All you need to do to is take off the cardigan and scarf and throw on a chunky statement necklace. You could even add a leather jacket for an extra edgy/night look depending on the weather. If you're not feeling the shoes for night, pull on a cute nude or gray peep toe or black heel and you're good to go for a night out on the town!

Scarves are the perfect way to add a pop of color or print to any outfit. This also gives people that are a little bit more afraid to branch out into wearing more bright colors or bolder prints the opportunity to ease themselves into it. 

Scarves aren't meant just for winter anymore. Scarves are made from so many different materials and with various styles that they can be worn all year round, depending on the type of scarf. There are still certain scarves meant only for specific seasons, like heavy knit scarves are meant for winter, while pastel, floral prints are usually intended more for spring and summer.

Most often, you can purchase scarves at any of your favorites stores or boutiques. There's such a wide variety that it would be hard to find something you don't love. Not only that, but they're reasonable in price. It's a cheap accessory that you can sport all year long.

Here's a great site for different ways to wear your scarves:  http://www.scarves.net/scarf-tying-index.html

If you couldn't already tell, I absolutely love the actresses with the girl-next-door look about them. Rachel McAdams is just like Jennifer Aniston in the sense that she goes for very simple, but it works and her outfits are still something to talk about. Ultimately, they both don't need to go over-the-top with their clothes because if I had their gorgeous looks, I definitely wouldn't want to take away from or hide what's already there. 

Not only does Rachel McAdams look absolutely fabulous in her simple every day casual wear, but she, without-a-doubt, rocks it when it comes to her gowns/dresses for award shows and red carpets. You should definitely check out some of these looks. I don't know how you wouldn't be able to agree with me.

I love this outfit (pictured) of hers because it's perfect for a spring/summer weekend just running errands or having a lunch date. It's something you can throw on quick, but it still looks good.

Just picture it.... How perfect would this outfit be paired with a pair of aviators in the summer time? Instead, it's being buried under layers upon layers of sweaters, coats, scarves, and boots.

These two are a perfect summer combo, not to say you can't wear them in the winter, but like I said, they would just look so good out in the sunshine with your aviators on. I guess all I can do is dream for now.

The shirt definitely gives the outfit more of a dressed down feel, but at the same time, you're still dressed up. For some reason, it just works, or you might agree with my husband  who thinks these two clothing items don't work together at all, and that's ok! You are welcome to your opinion. I can't say I'd normally put these two items together when I'm getting ready in the morning, but you'd be amazed by the number of compliments I got, especially on my skirt.

Not only do headbands look great, but they definitely come in handy when you may be running a little bit behind on time when you're getting ready in the morning. It's always smart to have more fashionable headbands on hand when you just aren't in the mood to really do your hair, but want something extra to add to your look.
