You know how you get songs stuck in your head? Currently, and probably forever, Uptown Funk is stuck in my head. The other song drives me crazy because I get ONLY the chorus stuck in my head. While I was picking out my outfit for this particular day, I kept on humming said annoying song, MKTO’s “Classic.” I decided to reach into my closet and pull some of my favorite pieces that I feel are pretty classic to go along with the vibe of the song. Cream + plaid + faux fur + neutral coat? In the words of MTKO, “Girl youβre timeless, just so classic.”
There’s just something about going for the pieces that make you feel good, keep you warm and make you walk down the street just a little more sassy. Really, all outfits should make you feel this way, but sometimes trendy outfits don’t give me that sass. Instead, the simpler, more muted outfits are the ones that I feel most confident. I think it’s because I know that in the coming years, I will look back and these will be outfits that I will still be wearing. (I cannot say that MKTO’s song is going to be a classic, but oh well, they can keep getting those checks as it plays on the radio. I will definitely keep humming it.)

I LOVE these pants, and they are from Target?! Nice find!! I am a big Bruno Mars fan, and when I first heard Uptown Funk, I wasn't that into it. But now? Now I cannot stop jamming in my car to that song!

Those pants are tooooo good. And great classic nude pump- I feel like every girl needs these!
You look awesome + super polished, as per usual. π
I have a funny story about MKTO… For offline. Ha.

"Classic" is such a cute song, but yes, it's an ear bug. I love the touch of fur. And with the plaid. And the nude. Well, with all of it. I've missed your outfits and sense of humor. Now I need to catch up on your other posts.

I went through a really bad "Classic" phase a couple months ago – it felt like I couldn't wake up in the morning without the song being stuck in my head! Now I've moved on to "Jealous", that new Nick Jonas song. Seriously – when I wake up in the morning, when I'm trying to fall asleep at night, it's always there.

The nude pumps are definitely the right choice – and I must agree – keep it classic! I feel like it's been a century since it was warm enough here to wear trousers and heels and have that much of my foot exposed without risking frostbite. It was actually two weeks ago, but that might as well be eternity.
