Chambray is one of those materials that every wardrobe will appreciate. We all have those days where we just want to throw something ‘easy’ on that’s still functional and cute. Chambray is that for me. I can throw on an oversized chambray top and leggings with black flats, and I’m good to go on a Saturday morning brunch date. In the same regard, I can throw on a sleeveless chambray button up with a pencil skirt over it with heels and head to church on Sunday morning. I wore this outfit last week to some meetings and, personally, felt like it was a good mix of comfortable yet put together. I can see how the cardigan might seem a little ‘sloppy’ looking, and I realize how my job is a little more relaxed in the dress code department than most. Keep in mind … this is just inspiration so take the pieces that you can apply and alter it to your liking 🙂 I personally love my chambray sleeveless top because it fits well and it’s under $40! Doesn’t get any better than that … Score it while you can!

Sorry I’ve been away from the blog this week. I mentioned in my snapchat yesterday [follow along if you’re not already! Username is @alyson_haley] that I am admittedly HORRIBLE at keeping up with the accounting that goes along with running a blog as a business. You might not have known this blog generates an income for me, but it does … so, with that, I am responsible for documenting every expense and every avenue of income from it throughout the year. I am great at keeping my receipts but NOTSOMUCH good at documenting it appropriately for my CPA to file all the necessary tax documents. So, I’m catching up on that this week. I will do my best to have a new Friday FIVE up for you tomorrow. Let me know what categories you want me to include!

Examples of categories: 5 holy grail hair products, 5 latest shoe purchase HITS, 5 qualities I want in my future husband, 5 latest shoe purchase MISSES, 5 links I loved this week, 5 things on my heart this week, 5 songs I can’t stop listening to, 5 thoughts on this week’s episode of The Bachelor, 5 items currently on my lust list, 5 other bloggers I love, 5 items on my radar under $50, 5 reasons why I have an assistant, 5 Instagram accounts I love to follow, and the list goes on. Get creative!
