Fall OOTD #3 – Classy/Casual

Posted on by Maggie

Hi there, guys! Hope you’re all having a beautiful week. 🙂 ❤ I have my third OOTD post to share with you today! This outfit is an absolutely beautiful one, I think – definitely the first of its kind in my wardrobe! – and I had such a fun time at the little photoshoot where my mom took these pictures! ❤ I hope that you guys enjoy!

Let’s take a look at the whole outfit first.

Just look at the sleeves, aaaaahh! ❤

This outfit is one that I created by taking different articles that I bought separately, which all went together perfectly. Three out of the four things were purchased over the past couple of weeks, and the other (the jeans) I’ve been loving for about a year. Haha! (Also, isn’t the lighting in the pics perfect? My mom did a wonderful job!)

I had to step out of my comfort zone to put together this ensemble. Basically everything that I wore are items that I wouldn’t have looked into purchasing even a year ago, and not just because they would only suit my age now, or something. For a long time, I have been in the habit of wearing and buying very simple outfits, and it was hard for me to shop for anything more than this. Recently, however, I have been slowly breaking away from that trend and creating my own style, which has been a beautiful, exciting experience!

Also, I love how my staple hairstyle as of late (messy bun) looks awesome with this outfit.

This is honestly such a pretty picture! ❤ Now, let’s take a look at where I got everything!

Shirt – Thrifted. When I came across it on the clothing racks at Goodwill one Sunday, I knew that I had to have it! Once I tried it on and it fit perfectly, I was more than happy to bring it home. (Too bad it wasn’t on sale, though, lol)

Jeans – Thrifted. As I already mentioned, I’ve been wearing these for a while, and they are so comfortable!

Shoes – Old Navy. My family and I went shopping around different outlet stores on a weekend in October, and while I was browsing the gorgeous sweaters at Old Navy, I looked up and found these awesome booties (aka little boots), in tan and black, on a shelf at my eye level. They are extremely comfortable and just my size! I love them!!!

Shoulder Bag – Thrifted. I found this beautiful bag the same day I purchased the books I shared on my book haul post last week! I can’t get over how greatly I adore this bag; it is absolutely gorgeous, and I got it in fantastic condition. The only sad thing about it are the ends of the shoulder strap; I’ve had to sew them up, as they were very weak, but I need to still work on that a bit more.

Nail Polish – WalMart. Yup, haha! This was the first time in years that I got my nails painted, and this was the very first occasion that I painted them myself! (Just shows that it’s been so long, hahaha) I loved the deep purple shade (All Vamped Out by Pure Ice). ❤ You can see a more up-close shot of my nails below.

Aren’t they pretty? And I seriously love that bag so much! ❤

Thank you so much for reading, guys! This was a fun post to write, and I’m so happy with how the pictures turned out! ❤ I hope that you have a beautiful day (:

thanks to jirah and elline for my signature! xx

  1. Nice outfit! I seriously love the shirt and it matches soooo well with everything else (really, everything, from head to toe) 🙂 I cannot believe you got half your outfit at a thrift store! Now I have to go to one 😀 ❤

  3. You are lucky; I have absolutely no sense of fashion, haha! I like things that are comfortable and will hold up to my active and very dog-inclusive lifestyle. And I do not like dressing up. I really should learn to like it. 😉

    1. It took me quite a while to figure out my style! It has become much easier for me to assemble outfits now 🙂 I understand! I’m sure it would be a challenge to find what works for you.

  18. Amazing outfit, Maggie! I love the boots especially! I know exactly what you mean about developing your own ‘style.’ Sometimes it feels a bit uncomfortable to branch out and try something new but I love what you have done with this! I’m finding my ‘style’ at the moment too! Clover x

  20. First thought, “Girl, that shirt looks so good on you!”

    I love how this carries, to me, a both casual and classy look. It took me so long to find something of my own style, and to be frank I am still trying to figure out what is “me,” lol. But it is always interesting to see other people put their outfits together and truly see their personality shine. I think what you’ve created is a beautiful on you, and you carry such a beautiful heart already, how can you seriously not shine 🙂

    Seriously, your mom takes awesome photos!

    1. Aww thank you, girlie! I absolutely love that shirt. Definitely one of the best ones I’ve gotten in a while! Defining your own style can be a challenge. It’s a balance of finding clothes that you love how they look, and they look good on you, too 🙂 I’m happy you like this outfit! Thank you so much ❤
