Lookbook: Weekend Brunch With Khaki And Porcini

Remember my khaki Banana Republic blazer I got for $27.99? Well I ended up getting a price adjustment and got an additional 20% off! Woohoo! They normally don’t do that but they made an exception so it never hurts to ask! My Ann Taylor Porcini pumps came on Friday and this is what I wore out this weekend:

Top: H & M Ruffle Shell- size 2
Jeans: H & M Young- size 11/12 (similar HERE in 00SHORT)
Shoes: Ann Taylor Porcini Pumps– size 5
I had to roll up the sleeves because they are a bit too long but luckily the inside is lined with cute white stripes so it looks like I did it on purpose! 

Sorry for the plain face and nude lips- I didn’t feel like putting on a full face of makeup when I’m not working. This blazer fits nicely and the length isn’t too long. Not sure if I can make it work for a business outfit but I liked how it looked with this ensemble.

Here’s what it looks like w/the blazer buttoned. I prefer it unbuttoned especially because I want to show off my ruffles! My Ann Taylor Porcini pumps fit better than the granite suede pumps! They are slightly a bit smaller- not by much but just enough to make a difference. So I was pretty pumped about that! I will be keeping both pairs and making them work!
Do you notice how my shirt is untucked? It’s really uncomfortable for me NOT to tuck in shirts- I feel frumpy and weird but this top, I tried tucking it for work and it just doesn’t work. So with jeans and a blazer- it is a must! But I think it looks good even though it’s slightly a bit longer than the blazer….any thoughts?

This is a bit random but I am on the hunt for some jeans. I want to track down the perfect pair so I have placed an order for some petite gap ones in 00 (got on sale for $24.99) and am looking to try a size 23 in Rock and Republic. Stay tuned for a review on those!  I’m not sure why I am on this crazy hunt because I know it’s pointless and I never wear jeans enough to get my money’s worth but what the heck 🙂

That’s all from me! I have some fitting room reviews but it’s too much to post so I will do it for Wednesday’s post!!! Stay tuned!

Leave a comment!

  1. What a great deal on the blazer! and looks like it fits you pretty well. There is nothing wrong with wearing the shell untucked. It is perfectly fine for casual outfits. Looking forward to your denim's reviews

  2. LOL, this is your weekend look? blazer and pump? I must look like a street bum to you.
    You are an unbelievable bargain hunter. That jacket with an extra 20% of? That's an amazing deal. I remember you got a LOFT loot post and I was totally impressed.
    I love the way you match your pumps with the blazer. Wish I could find one that fits me. Still on the look out. I'm not sure about the blazer buttoned look. The blazer looks too small for you in that picture.

  3. I can fit a size 24 in 7 for all mankind jeans. I must be bigger than you. Hehe! I look forward to your jeans post! I wear jeans Monday-Friday usually because I went back to preschool teaching and my outfits are awful because I try to wear things I don't mind getting stained with paint, mud and more! LOL! I hope you had a wonderful weekend! Congrats on winning Becky's small giveaway! You deserve it!

  4. i really like this blazer unbuttoned! it's so classy against the ruffle shirt 😀 i am in love with your shoes and those jeans look like they are the perfect length to show them off!

    thanks for your comment sweetie 😀 haha yeah i just took this tripod off my parents' hands. they don't really take pictures anymore so they gladly let me have this 15 year old baby haha

  5. @Vicky- I had my hands in the back pockets of my jeans making the blazer look like it doesn't fit but it fits perfectly and it's not even tight 🙂

    @April-You are not bigger than me..LOL Jeans just fit me weird…a 24 in any brand of jeans is too big for me and will need alterations:)

  6. The outfit is so fresh! I love that blazer on you, would have thought it already came like that. Cute pumps too =0D

  7. I love the outfit. The color is very clean and fresh. It's very casual sophisticated outfit & I like the shirt un-tucked.

  8. what! how did you get such a cheap blazer from BR?! everything I see on sale there is still like $80 for a blazer lol. lucky lucky you. great otufit too, very professional!

  9. I like the top but I do think the fact that it's a little odd being longer than the blazer. Just my personal pet peeve, I guess.

  10. jacket fits you well! I like the khaki w/the tortoise buttons. The yellow of that top is so gentle and soft. I love it.

    Do you normally wear sunglasses? You should consider doing a review on the ones you own and wear.

  11. Been following you but finally subbed…love your outfits! Wish I could afford your wardrobe cause I am not as lucky as you in bargain hunting!! I love love love those nude shoes. Nice to see you wearing tops untucked for a change (it looks good).
