This outfit is comprised of pieces that I have had for over a year now - and yet I still feel current and stylish. As well, the tee and trousers are lower end pieces that have worn incredibly well and been complete workhorses in my wardrobe. Just goes to show that price does not necessarily equate quality.

Today's outfit started with my dark olive green cargo pants. Based on these pants, I have determined that a) I love slim fitting cargo pants and b) I must always have a pair in my wardrobe - they are soooooo versatile.

I have paired the pants with my drapey black/white ballerina tee, semi tucked to show a peek of my black leather belt. On top of that, I've added my strict black suit blazer and scrunched the sleeves to take any "stuffiness" out of the jacket. Due to how often I wear this blazer, it is starting to show some wear and tear. I may duplicate and buy the same one again since the fit is so perfect for me.

To finish off the outfit, I've added some black patent shine with my booties and clutch. The clutch also adds some structure to the outfit. Red specs and rose gold/black oversized watch and swipe of lipstick complete the ensemble.

What do you think? Does it all work together? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.
