I am all about pieces that serve multiple purposes and are affordable. It’s hard for me to buy anything for a single serve use. When Banana Republic sent me these chic pants, I knew they would be the perfect work to weekend piece. Their slim fit and dark color make them super versatile. I paired them with this pleated peplum tank with an asymmetrical hem (obsessed!), a classic heeled sandal, and my all time favorite leather moto jacket (on sale for $60!!!) for a weekend look. I actually wore this exact outfit with a blazer and slides for my first day back to work. Changing up the shoes and outwear made for such an easy transition.
Let’s talk affordability. My jacket is on sale for only $60. My tank is $70. The pants and heels are just over $100. I rarely buy anything over $50-$75 if I am being honest with you. Banana Republic is always running great sales. Just last week everything on their site was 40% off, making everything in this look $70 or under. For the quality of the pieces, that just cannot be beat.
So what about you? What things do you look for when shopping?

NEW POST: LACE CROP TOP + FLARE PANTS
I can’t believe that jacket! What a great price. Leather jackets are always a yes in my book. That tank is so pretty and I love the edgy/feminine look with that jacket and top!

I love wearing pieces multiple ways. I rarely wear my work pants on the weekend, but I think this is a great casual weekend outfit! I’m all about cost/wear!

Those are a great pair of printed pants – i like that the print is subtle enough to still be really versatile. And the knife pleat peplum is fabulous .

Those pants are great, and I love the pieces you paired them with! Versatility is something that’s important for clothing I buy, too. If I can style something for both work and the weekend, that’s always a win!
