get creative, use Pinterest

It has been no secret that I have been trying to be creative with my wardrobe! I am not on a spending freeze or anything, but I have been putting more effort into using what I already own in my closet instead of running out & purchasing more. Don't get me wrong I still run to the mall or hitting that "add to cart" option online just not as much as I used too. 

Getting creative is not always easy so I turn to all of our favorite site... Pinterest for some help! I find one item I want to build my outfit around then I search on Pinterest for inspiration to help me finish it off. Take a look at last weeks inspiration....

I love my green skirt & I really wanted to find a way to transition it to fall. It was the first real "cold" morning in AZ so I knew tights could totally be an option!  When I found the image on the right + I used it as my inspiration to bring my emerald skirt from spring to fall!



The black skirt I am wearing is actually a dress, I wanted to use it in a different way than just a plan LBD look. When I came across the inspiration on the right I ran to my closet to make sure I had a stripped skirt & then I dug through to find my army jacket. I think the look came together just perfectly!


Many times I am always on the go! I don't always have time to always look dressy or perfectly put together. I found the image on the right again while scrolling through Pinterest one morning while still snuggled in bed. While in the shower I was thinking hard of what to wear that day when the outfit just came to me....similar yet I added the touches of red for a little brightness to my day. 



How do you find creativity for your outfits?
