Jeans and a T Plus...

Recently a friend commented that she usually works from home in just jeans and a tee and she said it would be nice to dress up sometimes. That comment gave me the idea for this post (thanks Kris!). When I work from home I usually dress the same way. Getting dolled up isn't always practical day to day. I knew I could start with just jeans and a simple gray t-shirt and create several different outfits by just adding a few pieces.

A work at home woman or mom might need to go to an appointment or a meeting during the day. Maybe it's a working lunch, a meeting at your child's school or a medical appointment. Starting with basic dark wash jeans and a gray v neck t-shirt, I added a tweed jacket, some pearls, a watch, and some coordinating kitten heels.

For a night out or just dinner with your sweetie, add a tuxedo jacket or satin jacket, cool heels and some sparkly jewelry. If you don't want to wear heels, try a pretty pair of flats.

Night Out

Running errands doesn't have to mean boring or sloppy. By adding a few classic touches, a trench coat, colorful flats, a pendant necklace, a timeless timepiece, and some simple studs, your jeans and tee become polished.

You can take these outfits and make them your own. Use what you have in your own closet. Your jeans and favorite tee can be the basics for a fantastic outfit. They are an easy uniform for home and can quickly transition with your changing day.
