1 look, 3 ways.

Today we are putting your wardrobe to work by creating 3 different looks at out 1 core outfit!

with school, work, internships and presentations I have been a busy busy bee lately! On monday (when I wore this look) I started my day working at kate spade, then rushed to school for a presentation and ended with my night classes. I didn't have time to change between these events, so I had to transform the outfit I wearing! Today, I will teach you how to do the same so you can take your look from work to weekend and back again.

Before we get started, take a look at the key pieces I used in all three looks...

Top: Cropped Top, Forever. Skirt: Handmade (similar). Ring: All Wrapped Up Bow Ring, Kate Spade (in stores). Glasses: Tom Ford*. Belt: All Wrapped Up Bow Belt in Black, kate spade (no longer available) (similar). Earrings: Gumdrop studs in aqua, kate spade.

 now that we know what we're working with, lets see the three "Courtney's" I became throughout the day, starting with look one.

Look 1: Cute Courtney

First up was the flirty girlie look I started my day in: my Kate Spade work attire.

since I work at Kate Spade, are work attire is fun and bubbly with a little bit of whimsy. Spades also encourage statement jewelry and colorful touches. This wouldn't be appropriate for a normal corporate job, but you could wear this for a shopping day, lunch with the girls or a day date!

(please disregard the gauze and bandages! I am not yet skilled at becoming culinary courtney and had a run in with my kitchen that left me burned! eek)

Bangles: idiom bangles, Kate Spade. Bracelets: Vintage Sparkle Bracelet, Vintage Gold Chain bracelet (similar, on sale). Necklace: All Eyes On You, kenneth jay lane (I loved it so much I bought it in black too). Necklace: Gold Chains, Max & Chloe. Shoes: Vintage Polka Dot Flats (similar).

Look 2: Corporate Courtney

After work, I ran straight to my MBA program, where I had to do a presentation. For any school presentations I always dress "business casual" because when you look your best, you present your best!

everyone should invest in what I call a casual/corporate jacket that can easily go work or weekend. Putting it on easily dressed up this look! Mine reminds me of Jackie O! I also turned my high back cropped top around for a higher neck line. 

Bracelets: Vintage Sparkle Bracelet, Vintage Gold Chain bracelet (similar, on sale), Vintage Pearl Bracelets (similar). Necklace: All Eyes On You, kenneth jay lane (I loved it so much I bought it in black too). Shoes: White Mary Janes, Jessica Simpson. Jacket: "Jackie O"Jacket, Vintage. 

Look 3: Casual Courtney 

After my 2pm presentation, I spent the rest of the day in classes, so I wanted to be a little more casual and comfortable, especially for my walk home!

I think the key to being casual and comfortable but still cute is to dress up your casual pieces like a denim jacket with unexpected accessories, like a bold broach and statement necklaces! Also I like to pair my super cute tennies with skirts and bold prints instead of basic denim.

Bangles: kate spade idiom bangles, diy decoupage bangles. Bracelets: Vintage Sparkle Bracelet, Vintage Gold Chain bracelet (similar, on sale) Vintage Pearl Bracelets (similar). Necklace: Double Exposure Necklace, Kate Spade (now on sale). Broach: Music Note, Vintage.
