good look for less, Vanessa!

I'm on vacay this week... but I have great posts lined up! First off, I am finishing up the 30/30 Challenge with photos I have been stock piling and secondly, I am catching you all up on some fun summer to fall wardrobe consults I have completed recently... sit back and enjoy!

First up, Vanessa... she's almost 40, has a little one at home and is a professor (casual dress code)... she had a roughly $500 budget to spruce up her wardrobe to get back to school this fall. Here's a look at her shopping list (click image for full details):

More Forever 21...

Let's take a look at a few outfits now...

Trouser style jeans are a perfect option for wear-to-work jeans. The darker the better as they look more refined and are very slimming. Vanessa also mentioned she's got some curves... so I kept it simple with a slim t, a tailored jacket and a great pair of jeans.

Sandals by Forever 21

Great accessories are a working moms best friend! They simply jazz up an outfit with just one simple step. I just love this top with some fun accessories... perfect for a casual work environment.

Tanks by Forever 21
Flats by Chinese Laundry

Simple tops that have structured details like this top are perfect for moms... they are comfortable but still have visual interest. This is a great weekend outfit!

Happy Shopping Vanessa!
