WIW one of my 20

Susie

Veteran

I've shown these pieces before I'm sure, but I like them well enough to have included them in my 20 outfits.

The sweater is EF and is a very sheer knit so I wear a black cami with it. I've worn it with black bottoms too but I already had enough outfits with those so I chose white. These are denim, basically looser fitting jeggings, that I've gotten lots of wear from.

The shoes are Seychelles and the satchel is Kenneth Cole. A colorful bag might have been more interesting but I just felt drawn to the pure black and white combination today.

Woot! I like the sort of soft B/W look (because it's not pure, saturated black) and you have going on here. That EF sweater must be dreamy. Love the peep toes and I like that you chose a B/W bag as well. Isn't it great how you can change up the vibe so much just with your bag choice? YLF!

And she's off to the races! This is a quintessentially "Susie" look. Awesome modern knit with some interest in cut or texture; terrific simple pant (or skirt) and fab footwear.

Thank you all for your kind comments!

Now when I said I was putting together 20 outfits, I didn't mean that they would all be fab...y'all are expecting way too much from me! But I have to say, when it was time to get dressed this morning, I picked the sweater from the ones I had grouped together (I only rearranged the sweaters so far) and then remembered what pants I had chosen to wear with it and grabbed them without a second thought. Done and done...easy peasy!

Suz, I appreciate your thought on this being "me" because I feel like it really is. It might be boring to others but top/bottom/shoe/bag really is my go to formula and I am enjoying it!

Excellent day one! Looking forward to tomorrow. How did you decide to handle weekend wear? Did you pick outfits, or are you just going with the flow for casual wear?

Absolute perfection Susie!

Carter, I went ahead and chose weekend / casual items too- 8 bottoms and 8 tops.

And I rearranged things in my closet too. I didn't hang by outfits but I did separate out the chosen pieces and hung them apart from the pieces I dont plan to use for my 20 outfits.

Susie, I know that this outfit is simple, but it is really polished and stylish! Nothing more is needed, imo. I think that you look really fab in the peeptoes. Keeping the outfit simple shows off how wonderful you look in those shoes!
