CASUAL PLUS SIZE USING A STRIPED SHIRT AND DENIM JACKET
For this outfit, I wanted to have a casual look that was good for running errands and also having lunch with friends. This is a multipurpose outfit that’s simple but still full of style.
I start off with these black jeans from Walmart. I still have a love for black skinny jeans because I feel they look great in these simplistic outfits. I like these because they’re not too tight so they really feel as if they’re more of a straight leg pant than skinnies.
From there, I went with this black-and-white striped shirt. I know striped shirts aren’t technically must have basic, but I think they should be considered basics. There is so much you can do with this type of shirt.
Finishing the look, I added this denim jacket to breakup some of the neutral tones from the pants and shirt. This is also the reason I added these brown strappy sandals. I feel the contrast with the brown and black helps bring some interest to this outfit.
That’s the look. I adore these simple outfits that can transition to different activities, but are still very comfortable.
