Hello everyone (below are details of my giveaway – see yesterday’s post)!
Another day in the office, another pair of jeans – I always start with jeans when I’ve got up feeling tired and haven’t planned an outfit the night before. (Does everyone else plan outfits like I’m led to believe on many blogs???) I just added lots of layering, a punch of neon yellow and some heels to keep me feeling girly. I haven’t worn this black and cream blouse in such a long time, maybe because it’s a “can’t be-worn-unironed top” – but I do love it so!
*Have you entered my giveaway?*

The neon bag is awesome. You are a master of layering…you make it look so effortless. I like all the overlapping colors. Very smart chic outfit. Thanks for your beautiful comments btw 🙂

Aww thank you so much, Mongs… and you're very welcome for the comments, you deserve them! xoxo
Nice outfit. What I always find difficult with adding a colour through a bag, is that I have to leave my bag in a draw. Which means that my only pop of colour is gone.
And yes, I always plan (and hang up) my outfit for the next day, the evening before. I have to. Half my wardrobe is in the bedroom and I get up at a quarter past 5. Wouldn't be nice to my husband to waken him as well.

Oooh that's early, Greetje… I'm up early enough at 6:30 so I really should plan them beforehand but I only do it sometimes. I'm glad you like the outfit my sweet, thank you! C xx
OMG! This would have been perfect for the neon story I just did for the Huffington Post: http://www.stylelist.com/wendy-brandes/spring-fashion-neon-pastels_b_1368786.html
Darn! Well, I'm working on a story about wedge sneakers. Let me know if you have any of those!
Thank you Wendy… though I did email neon pics to you, I'm sorry if you didn't get them, what a shame! 🙁 But yes I do have wedge sneakers, maybe I should wear them soon in that case! C xx
I still have not mastered two things you do SO well: layering and and kicking arm party! Love this look! The neon bag is such a great pop of color.

How nice of you to say, Micol – thanks so much! C xx
I really do love your sense of style!! This is such a well styled look! I love the layers you've created giving the look lots of depth and the splash of neon with that amazing must-have satchel is the perfect finisher! 🙂
Take care,Daniella xox
You always leave such wonderful comments, Daniella – thanks hun! Have a good weekend! C xo
I've been in love with that bag forever! Jealous!
It's becoming a classic, isn't it, Kristin…? Thanks sweetie! x
Adore this layered look of yours, and love the touch of neon. I don't generally plan my outfits unless I'm travelling, but even then I still tend to dress by my mood starting with the shoes! lol 🙂 Happy weekend!
Thanks sweetie… talking of travelling, I'm on holiday next week and haven't even taken a second to think about clothes!! Must get on with it!! C xo
I love that black and white blouse, it's so pretty. I too reach for jeans whenever I'm stumped for what to wear in the morning – I NEVER plan my outfits the night before! Of course, that results in me running around trying on twenty different outfits ten minutes before I'm supposed to leave, but it's so much more fun that way than planning it the night before 🙂
Heehee I always try to plan the night before, but usually I just want to get into bed so I too often rush round in the morning! Or I'll have planned an outfit but then fiddle around for ages in the morning trying on jewellery to go with it ;))) Thanks Stacey! x
I just discovered your blog a few days ago. I love the way you mix colors and textures and patterns! I also have serious nail envy. Keep posting!!
Welcome! And thank you for your lovely comments, hope to see you again! C x
I love the layers, you always do layering so well! Love that neon bag!

Always Maylee
It's a bit of a statement, isn't it, Yi-chia..? Thanks hun! x
Super cute Catherine! That bag is just the right touch. Have a great weekend!
Thank you Joni, and you too! C xx

bag is awesome:-)
Thank you, Ivana! x
The bag is perfect. Without the bag it wouldn't be! The bag is genius!
Thanks Jen x
Love all the accessories especially the neon bag. Think I might try rolling my jeans up as well. Getting bored of my usual skinny jeans look. I never have time to plan an outfit. Most of my wardrobe is laid out on the bedroom floor lol. x
Hmm a lot of my clothes are everywhere but the wardrobe too!! Thanks for your comment sweetie xo
