10 casual outfit formulas for Mom on the go — Mon, 25 Jan 2010 21:49:22 +0000

[...] Jeans + tunic sweater + leather / pleather jacket + ankle boots: Banded tunic knitwear gets my vote because the style is easy and forgiving around the midriff area. Add a cropped jacket for structure and throw in ankle-length cowboy boots for fun. Cowboy boots do not need to look overtly western. Fryes assortment has been stellar this season and the colours are delicious. [Update: detailed post on this formula] [...]

Look 3 is super chic. I love the color of the scarf paired with the moss green sweater. Of course, the boots are awesome, too.

Love these looks! I have trouble finding long tunics that aren’t banded at the bottom. The first one by Kensie would be perfect if it had long sleeves and wasn’t banded. The hunt continues…

I love all of these outfits!! I’m wearing a similar outfit today. A long purple sweater with black boots.

I love how you took the time to add an appropriate snack to each outfit. Hee hee!!!

This is a cute look, but I’m reluctant to wear longer sweaters. Can they really flatter hourglass-shaped women? My bust and hips are very, very full, and my defined waist is the only narrow/slender part of my body. I’m afraid of looking extremely heavy in a long sweater, though I notice that they are everywhere now.

Interesting how differently we can perceive things. Elizabeth, I totally understand and appreciate that you’d like to see more reasonably-priced items. But I love seeing items that are out of my price range; I feel that seeing “high end” items trains my eye to better notice quality details and construction. Just because I can’t afford them, doesn’t mean that I can’t learn from them. : )

Very interesting SS that you came up with that great outfit for under $20. I love that.
I am so excited that I am finally getting it with these formulas. Thanks for hammering it home Angie.

OK, it’s not quite the Bohemian and Earthy, but it really works for me. Especially since I thrifted every piece:
