Today's Everyday Fashion: The Slacker

Today's title has two meanings: 1. I've been a real slacker lately about taking outfit photos so please excuse my insane hair and the fact that I've worn these pants way too much this week. 2. This outfit is so easy, even a fashion slacker can do it! (I'm looking at you, moms with absolutely no time to devote to getting dressed!)

Why this works: This look is a recipe for looking chic while being a total bum. Start with some skinny cargos, then balance them out with a loose-fitting top (if your cargos are loose, do the opposite and pair them with a tighter shirt). Add a colorful scarf for interest and some nude booties or sandals. Voila! You look chic but feel like you are wearing pajamas. That's a win-win in my book. :-)
