It's a long drive (3 hrs. each way), and I knew it would be an extremely long day, so&nbsp;last night I made a list of my outfit&nbsp;requirements:</p> <p> <div>1. Nothing fussy<br />2. Shoes, not sandals, as hospitals tend to be cold<br />3. It should look good with/without a jacket</p> <p>So I reverted back to an old tried and true outfit formula&nbsp;- black pants, white top, denim jacket, leopard or other&nbsp;print somewhere. I didn't care for the ankle pants without heels, so I cuffed up the pants and I thought that looked better. I wore my leopard print flats, a brown and black beaded shell&nbsp;statement necklace, white short sleeved&nbsp;blouse to deal with the hot outside weather, and denim jacket for indoor a/c.</p> <p>The original inspiration for this outfit came from blogger Jessica Quirk (photo 3).&nbsp;I have worn variations of this outfit (different print scarf, gray Chuck Taylor's on my feet, black Levi's 505 jeans, black maxi skirt) on work days, running errands,&nbsp;and even on long plane rides, and I've always been comfy and fuss-free.</p> <p>The denim jacket is from American Eagle, it was one of Angie's picks a while back and it has been an absolute favorite of mine - I love the fit (extra long sleeves!) and quality of the denim.</p> <p>Do you have a tried and true outfit formula?&nbsp;</p> <p> </div> </p>
