ventage tuesday : what we wear.

Ventagetuesdays

What's this? A blog theme? Why yes, yes it is! The Ventage Girls (me, Barb, Angie, Em, and Steph) decided to do a little group activity. No promises on how long we keep this up (hint: leave us lots of comments & we'll be super motivated. we're easy like that.). The basic premise? One question, five blogs. This week's question comes from our resident fashionista (& makeup advisor), Angie -

What are your 5 wardrobe must haves?

I am most definitely NOT a fashionista. I'm a pretty simple gal when it comes to clothes. I'm fortunate that I have a very casual job (most days), so I don't really need to have a separate work closet. It's all the same. My musts:

1. My Gap denim jacket – I've had it for years, and it's like a security blanket. I wear it with lots…but never with jeans. I am not a fan of the denim on denim look. Not at all.

2. Skinny jeans – a newfound love. My current fave…from Loft, in teal. Note: I am not skinny.

3. Scarves – a minor(major) obsession. Love, love, love.

4. Bootcut jeans – yes, I'm counting jeans twice. Gap & Loft curvy denim bootcut are a girl's best friend.

5. Cardigan – for my inner librarian (like that Tracy?). I'm always cold, so sweaters are an almost daily thing for me. Bonus – they look cute with scarves & jeans!

One quick note – We didn't exchange posts in advance, so any similarities in style are just part of the reason why we're friends!

Great list. I especially love that jeans are on here two times – good pants make a HUGE difference in a look!

ah – cardigans . . . how many do I own? Yes, I embraced my inner librarian years ago 😉 Unfortunately, I’m struggling to find good cardigans to cover up the pregnant belly, at a price I’m willing to pay for something I’m only going to use for one season. And yes, my denim jacket has been through many years with me as well, NEVER worn with jeans! There are rules and there are rules . . .
