Leather + Denim
Sorry for the radio silence the last couple of days. This has been my first week of “real” work and it’s kicking my butt. Plus this weekend my husband was so busy that we didn’t really get to take outfit pics. I also injured myself AGAIN on Saturday. While trying to open those annoying plastic seals on a drink with a knife (not a good idea) I stabbed my finger. I hit a nerve and now part of my left index finger is numb. I’m really bummed about it. I’m not sure if nerve damage ever heals – or it might take a really long time. My finger just feels really weird and tingly and I think about it all the time. You never really realize how much you use certain parts of your body until you injure it!
Anyway! Back to the outfit! I’ve been thinking a lot about “simple” outfits lately. I love print mixing and statement pieces but sometimes I’m just not in the mood. It’s easier to throw on a tee shirt and jeans. But even when I’m dressing comfortably I want to be stylish! Denim on denim is my go-to. I LOVE my chambray shirt. In fact, I’ve worn it so much it’s starting to get holes. I need a replacement ASAP! Once you have a plain canvas (chambray shirt and denim jeans) it’s easy to add a fun jacket or shoes and voila! You’ve got an outfit!
This time I decided to bring out my leather jacket for the first time. I bought it last Fall but for some reason It just sat in my closet. Since this is my first “real” leather jacket I think I was just nervous to wear it…haha. Does anyone else do that with new clothes that you are really excited about?

Yikes! Stay away from knives!
Love this outfit so much, it is exactly what I've been gravitating towards lately, casual, comfy, polished.
Chic on the Cheap
I love that you styled jean on jean. The 2 different colours look amazing together! I hope your finger heals! Finger injuries suck.
