Restyling A Plaid Blazer for Fall + Blogger Linkup

October 25, 2018

This plaid blazer was such a hit last time I wore it that I knew it had to be styled again for the blog, and even better, as a blog collaboration and linkup! Today I’m posting with Ada of Elegance and Mommyhood, so you can read more about her blog at the bottom of the post and linkup with other bloggers in the linkup party as well 🙂

Plaid blazers are everywhere for fall, and this one is under $35 so it’s such a great steal. Last time I wore it with a graphic tee and loafers, but now that it’s cooling down I added a cozy scarf and swapped in some new basic black booties (similar here). I think this might even be my new fall uniform!

These simple black booties are a new find, and between these and my light brown booties, I think I’m set for fall shoes! Having both neutrals means that I have something to match any outfit, and both pairs are pretty comfortable.

And despite all the scarves I have in my closet, I didn’t have a plain white one! This white scarf is super soft (I had to have it when I touched it in store!) and since it’s wide you can also wear it as a wrap. More neutrals to match all my outfits through fall and winter!

Now on to the collab and linkup! Ada has been one of my longest blogger friends and is always so sweet and positive to everyone in the fashion blogging community. Her style is feminine, colorful, and fun, and she almost always has a dash of pink. I love how she’s always willing to try new trends and mix up her pieces, and you can tell she really LOVES to have fun with fashion! And that’s the most important thing, right?! I’m happy to have met Ada through blogging, and happy to co-host her Thursday Moda linkup this week!

Here’s a little from Ada below, and be sure to check out the full details on her look on her blog, as well as join the linkup!

“Hi everyone. I am Ada, mom to the sweetest 5-year old girl named Vivian, who also makes a lot of appearances on the blog. My blog Elegance and Mommyhood who I have had since the year I was pregnant with my daughter (6+ years and counting), showcases my personal style as a mom, a woman on the go and as a career woman. I often show Mommy+Mini Outfits of me and my sweet daughter. My blog is also a blog about real life updates, current events and some of my writing, mostly poetry. I have been running my successful Thursday Moda linkup every Thursday for a little over two years now. I can also be found on Instagram, Bloglovin and Pinterest. Thank you for joining my linkup, today, and welcome back!”

My favorite look from last week’s linkup is from Virginia at More To Mrs. E. How gorgeous is her green maxi dress? She’s totally red carpet ready.
