Fashion Friday-Styling houndstooth pants

I knew I could pull this outfit together for Fashion Friday- Styling houndstooth pants using my light blue denim shirt.

Currently I am working on my quest to see how many outfits I can create using a blue denim shirt!

If you missed my other two blue shirt outfits that I styled. Here are the links- My at home casual look and last weeks Yellow mustard outfit

This week for Fashion Friday I am highlighting my Old Navy light Blue denim shirt again and Houndstooth pants!

Remember I talked about these pants a few weeks ago? Well I went and tried them on and loved them and Ka Ching…they were on sale for $25.00.

I knew I could pull this outfit together using my denim blue shirt.

Layering with sweaters

Layering is such a great way to bring in color and warmth.

Normally I don’t wear crew neck sweaters because it makes me look too bulky. I have a short neck, wide shoulders and a short waist. I always try to create a longer length fit my torso.

When I added the vest it creates a nice vertical line because of the gold zipper and it totally works.

Here are few other pull over sweater outfits where I used other things to create a longer line and break up my shoulder area. Creamy white sweater with plaid pants and How to style basic black pants.

Black vest

This vest is from Old Navy. I have had it for a few years but they have similar ones.

Then I added a little sparkle (Jcrew outlet) necklace…this is my favorite necklace!!

Not sure they still carry it but they always have super cute necklaces that I really like. 

These pants are soooo comfortable! Here are some similar ones from Target.

They have a nice stretch to them.

My daughter had fun taking these silly pictures of me.

I really like how this outfit is casual comfortable and yet pulled together enough to go out with my hubby.

When it starts getting a little chilly I could wear these houndstooth pants with boots for a totally different look.

That is the best part of creating outfits.

Just by changing up a few things you have a new look! 

I can’t wait to wear these pants with all different colored shirts, sweaters, jackets…what color do you think would be fun to wear with these pants?

What about a floral shirt?

Karins Kottage

Welcome to Karins Kottage! There is always something fun going on! You would think after becoming an empty nester couple that our nest would be very quiet and empty but our Kottage nest is usually more full than what we started out with! You might find me hosting a birthday party or graduation party and a baby shower on the same weekend or a big outdoor get together with 25 of our friends and family in the backyard or maybe I might be in the kitchen trying out a new recipe for my hubby and I to grill on the BBQ for a quiet night for the two of us. I am passionate about entertaining and setting a beautiful table! I may or may not have an addiction to cloth napkins and fun salad plates oh and goblets too! I think I will always have a home decorating DIY project in the works as long as my hubby is on board with me haha. We have painted A LOT in the 6 homes we have owned in the 35 years that we have been married as well as re-done multiple pieces of furniture, added wall and ceiling treatments, replaced lights, bathroom fixtures and even tiled floors! I have sewn what seems like a million window treatments for our home as well as for family, made slipcovers, and duvets and even a formal dress or two!
