Recreate Pinterest Outfit Ideas: Shop Your Closet With Me!

I have been having fun figuring out how to recreate Pinterest Outfit ideas Have you ever come across one of those super chic outfits on Pinterest and thought, “Ooooh I love that—but do I have anything like it?” Well, I recently fell in love with a cute and casual Pinterest outfit and decided to try recreating it with pieces I already had in my closet. Spoiler alert: I think it turned out pretty darn great!

Let’s break it down!

📌 The Inspiration

The outfit that caught my eye featured a pair of gold pants, a classic denim shirt, a brown belt tied in a fun knot, some stylish accessories, and a straw bag with a scarf. The whole vibe was easy, polished, and perfect for spring!

✨ My Closet Finds to recreate Pinterest outfit idea

Gold Pants

I’ve had these cropped, raw-hem gold pants from Gap for a few years now and they’re so comfy. Unfortunately, they’re no longer available, but I found a few similar options and linked them for you at the bottom of the post under “Shop Similar Clothes.” I love cropped pants. Here is a post where I show 7 ways to style them.

Denim Top

This top was a sweet gift from my mom, and I have to say, she has great taste! It’s soft, flowy, and has that perfect broken-in denim look—very similar to the inspiration photo. I love how it pairs with the gold pants!

Brown Belt (Hello, Closet Find!)

Digging around in the back of my closet, I found an old brown belt and styled it just like the Pinterest look—with a casual little knot. It added that perfect touch of interest and helped define my waist.

Long Necklace
In the inspo photo, she’s wearing a yellow and blue beaded necklace. I didn’t have anything quite like that, but I did have a long silver necklace that worked beautifully. Bonus: it draws the eye downward and helps elongate my short torso—a styling trick I use all the time!

Shoes
The Pinterest outfit featured brown loafers or deck shoes, which I don’t own. So I swapped in my trusty brown wedge sandals, and honestly? They totally work! The added height gives the look a little lift—literally and figuratively.

Straw Bag + Scarf
Lucky me, I did have a straw bag tucked away! I tied on a small scarf just like in the inspo pic and voilà—an adorable finishing touch.

Denim Jacket Switch-Up
Just for fun, I threw on my denim jacket to see how it would change the look. I love how layering the jacket gave the outfit a whole new vibe—perfect for cooler spring evenings! I also switched out the sandals and added white sneakers.
