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!
 
Old clothes can be just as good as new items. Take for example the skirt in the picture below. But wait! Looks can be deceiving. 
It's not actually a skirt, but a dress, which I haven't worn in over a year.
Try using old articles of clothing in new ways. 
You never know just what you might come up with. It can change the whole way you look at the clothes in your closet.

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!

Style Tip: I would purchase slightly longer button down shirts so that if you want to wear them under sweaters with the bottom showing, you're able to as long as it's not a long sweater, and even if you don't want it to show, you're still able to tuck it in. It's better to have something be too long than too short because you can always alter it or adjust accordingly with pins, sweaters, etc.

It's hard to see the true color of the pants because of the lighting, but they are a shade of mauve, and so is the print on the shirt.

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
