heart attack

| Heart Sweater: c/o Aeropostale | Jeans: Groopdealz | Converse |

Sometimes you just need a comfy, cute sweater for a casual Thursday.

Happy almost Friday!

confessions

| Top + Jeans + Sandals: Target | Necklace: Groopdealz |

A couple things in no particular order:

1. Sorry for rocking the top knot yet again, I've just been way too lazy to wash and do my hair. Don't judge!

2. I took some pictures of my bling because it's obviously my favorite accessory (duh) and doesn't get the attention it deserves.

3. Another comfy, casual look. Sorry, I'm not sorry.

4. I am obsessed with the new Katy Perry song. I'm pretty sure my husband who is in the same room as me right now just loves that I've listened to it like ten three times in a row.

5. Eight more days until we leave on our little vacation to visit my family in California. So stoked.

6. I'm super excited for fall clothes and colors, the weather...not so much.

7. Am I embarrassed that pretty much everything I'm wearing in this outfit is from Target? Nope, not even a little bit.

That's it guys. I hope you all have an awesome weekend!

stripes for the win

| Sweater: c/o Aeropostale | Jeans: Gap | Converse Tennies | Sunglasses: Target |

Whenever I'm not sure what to wear I immediately think of stripes and jeans. For some reason wearing a striped shirt with denim is the simplest way to look pulled together. It requires minimal effort (I'm all about that!) and it's another one of those comfy chic looks that I'm so fond of. On another note, this sweater from Aeropostale is something I picked up while shopping with my sister this past weekend. They were having a friends and family event so I majorly scored. I got a few other outerwear pieces that I'll be wearing on the blog soon (and in real life).

date night chic

// dress: H&M // chambray: American Eagle // converse tennies // belt: Wet Seal // watch: Target //

Another post with something from H&M that I could not pass up! And lucky for me this dress didn't even need a $15 tag it was only $12! So, I wore this outfit on a double date we went on with another couple from church. I was going for a casual feel that still looked put together (I didn't want to look like I was trying too hard!) We went out for ice cream, sat outside, and talked. Let me tell you, married double dating is just like regular dating! You're nervous before the date, you try to make small talk during the date, and at the end of the date you hope they ask you to hang out again (assuming it went well that is). It is seriously so funny, even Matt said that it felt like the dating game all over again.

Oh, and in case you're wondering our husbands exchanged numbers and we made some plans for next week. Looks like we're double dating pros already!

lazy girl's guide to style + a facelift

// shirt: TJ Maxx // jeans: Forever 21 // boots & watch: Target // necklace: JMR Boutique //

Here are a few easy steps if you're feeling lazy and don't want to get ready but still want to look cute:

1. Slip into some skinny jeans. A pair that is cute but still comfy. Make sure they are the stretchy kind.

2. Wear a baggy shirt. Something that you might wear as a pajama top.

3. Throw your hair in a bun and only curl the front strands so it looks like you still did your hair. 

4. Put on some lip gloss. This makes it look like you did your makeup.

Voila! You have fooled everyone into thinking you spend lots of time getting ready when in reality it only took 10 minutes. This is seriously the story of my life...how little can I do to make it still look like I did something to get ready?? Do you ladies have any tips or tricks for getting ready in a jiffy? If so, please share!

By the way, have you noticed my amazing. new blog design?!

My husband is a computer whiz and since he is studying computer programming he knows how to do all sorts of cool cute things! Plus, he doesn't even charge me for his services, what a deal! We changed the logo to something cleaner and to 'My Wardrobe Staples' since is still said Katelin+Matt. We also added new pages so that you can contact me, sponsor me, and find each of my outfits. The sidebar is now separated by sections and has a little intro and picture at the top. Oh, and even though I love pink more than anything for some reason lavender was calling my blog's name and I went with lavender and black as my color palette. Anyways, thank you Matthew! You did such a great job! Thanks for putting up with your more than difficult client ;)
