Lookbook: LOFT Camel blazer

It's been so busy for me this week so I apologize my posts have been lacking:( I finally got my LOFT camel blazer after 3 attempts.  First one smelled like the blazer was dipped in some nasty, heavy perfume. I got so allergic, had to keep the blazer in a different room. The 2nd one came and it had a pen mark on the sleeve. So 3rd time is the winner!

Inspired by 9to5chic and her camel blazer, I decided to try something a little different which is leaving my top un-tucked. It's very uncomfortable for me but I wanted to sort of get out of my box. And yes I took my H & M girl skinny jeans out of retirement for this post. I stopped wearing them ever since I got my Gap legging jeans which are now faded from washing so much. I did however manage to pick up an extra pair last night!

Okay, it's obvious I love LOFT.  After re-organizing my closet last weekend, I realized my closet is beginning to resemble the racks at LOFT. This blazer is super cute and a great length but it is a bit big. I always feel so "frumpy" when things are un-tucked so hopefully I was able to somewhat pull this look off.

Here is how I would wear it to work and what I am actually wearing today. I feel way more comfortable in styles like this. I added the color turquoise for a tiny pop of color in my Forever 21 vintage fillagree ring (size 6).

I love my new Chanel beige flap. It goes with everything and it's just gorgeous!! My other Chanel's should be arriving in the near future (*scream*).

Hope everyone has a great rest of the week!
