Months ago, I came across Stephanie Sterjovski’s blog and it instantly became one of my favorite daily reads. She has impeccable fashion sense, not to mention mad skills behind the camera – her blog and Instagram photos are some of the most gorgeous ones I’ve come across. 

When I saw that this week’s prompt for the Creative Closet was to copy or recreate an outfit that you found via Pinterest, in a magazine, etc., I knew that Stephanie’s preppy apple-picking ensemble was going to be my inspiration. Luckily, we were blessed with a sunny and semi-warm day before the blizzard of the season hit, so I could at least envision that it was still fall and I was off to the apple orchard.

Also, are you guys sick of seeing this striped tee and plaid blanket scarf yet?! Well, I sure hope not because neither are going anywhere – I’ve worn both more times than I can count, which just goes to show how versatile and winning of a combination these two pieces can be in any person’s wardrobe.

Don’t forget to visit Jana and Maegen to check out their take on this week’s Creative Closet prompt!

blazer | Target (on clearance in store!) 
striped tee | Target (similar)
jeans | Old Navy (exact)
blanket scarf | Target (exact)
quilted boots | Target (exact)
cross body bag | Philip Lim 3:1 for Target (last year)
sunnies | LC Lauren Conrad (old)

    Ooh so cute! you nailed it! there is nothing wrong with a winter uniform either. Mine is a striped long sleeved tee and bright patterned scarf or a bright solid sweater with a patterned scarf. No shame. 🙂 XO -Alexandra

    I am having a love affair with those boots! I desperately needed to replace my other black knee-high boots, so when I saw these on sale at Target with their fabulous quilted back, I knew they had to be mine. 🙂

    If you can still find this one at Target, it was less than $12 when I picked it up! I never realized how versatile a camel blazer can be.
