It’s the last Friday of the month, so it’s time for another CopyCats challenge! I was inspired by this recent “work casual” look from one of my favorite style bloggers, Laura from Laura Wears. So go check out more of her cool, elegant, tall-drink-of-water style.
It’s ok, I’ll wait.
When? July 26, 2012
What for? Work, work, work. I really liked Laura’s casual work look and how she dressed up a t-shirt with fun accessories like a chunky necklace and straw fedora. (Y’all know how I loooove a cool hat!) So I brought out my black skinnies and argyle print t-shirt, along with a chunky necklace and metallic strappy wedges. Going out the door this morning, I also swiped one of my husband’s many fedoras. ♥ At work, I added my grey cardigan (’cause it’s cold in the library).
I also brought out some Laura-like blogger poses. I should bring out those more often.
Details?
- Skinny jeans: Target
- Argyle t-shirt: American Apparel, gift from my mom a few years ago
- Necklace: Marks & Spencer, UAE, 2009 (came with a dress)

Love this look (although, to be fair, I am slightly biased!).

Thanks so much, Laura! I’m totally copycatting your moves, too.
I love this! Very chic and yet professional! And the hat adds a super fun touch!
Awww, thanks Bethie
We are a hat-loving couple, that’s for sure!
You get extra points for posing like her too! I love it and you copied the look beautifully! Thank you so much for participating!
LOL, thanks Sarah!
Love this copy! Amazing how accessories amp up what could otherwise be a plain outfit.
Thanks Erin! It’s true, accessories can make all the difference.
Great take on the inspiration! I like how the chunky necklace really adds something to the outfit.
Thanks so much, Carrie! I don’t wear this chunky necklace too often, but when I do, I always really like how it adds to the outfit
Love this look on you. Love the hat too. I have the same black skinny pants from target and I think I am going to need a new pair this fall.
Thanks Adin!
I’m interested to see how long the black dye holds up… so far so good.
