From Where I Sat & Stood

My style lately through the lens of my iPhone...

Fancy Pants

Normally, I reserve these pants for the 9-5; however, I felt like dressing 'em down. Despite the initial instinct to pair them with other other fancy duds, printed pants work really well with more casual attire too. On this particular night of errands and Indian food, I threw on a knotted tee, colored denim jacket, and my trusty fedora. My favorite part of this ensemble is the rose gold, showcased with my newest gems and flat sandals. Actually, scratch that - my favorite part was the elastic waistband, which allowed for over eating of chicken tikka masala and lamb kebobs.

Flavorfy

Brights are like spice of your closet. They add necessary flavor to your outfits and make any ensemble summer ready! Lucky Community has partnered with Dasani Drops and asked its contributors to show off our personal style in the featured colors of red, pink, purple, and yellow. As it turns out, I wear these shades more than any neutral, so I compiled all of my favorites from the past year. I hope you enjoy these outfits as much as you could enjoy the addition of one of the six Dasani Drops flavors to your water. Let's flavorfy!

The 9-5 Patriot

Red, white, and blue are a patriotic combination that can come off as too casual or juvenile for the work day. One way that I ensure this doesn't happen is by adding another neutral into the mix. For this ensemble, I grounded the colors of July 4 with black through a statement necklace, wide belt, and classic pumps.

No Need for Shoulder Pads

I'm a sucker for blazers (obviously), so finding a unique, vintage one is my ultimate score. I just ensure that I remove the shoulder pads since I don't need any help in the big shoulders category.
