Comfortable-but-not-boring is a box I (try to) check on a daily outfitting basis. A simple blouse and jeans for comfort, but a bold blue and green color block, shiny pendant necklace, and bright blue suede pumps (on sale by way) elevate the look and keep it interesting. The bones of the outfit remain simple and easy to wear, but the style payoff is present. Win-win!
This blouse is totally from last year’s Phillip Lim for Target collection, but I’ve sourced a few similar versions below in case you don’t have something like this in your closet. A good color block goes a long way!
Shop the look:
This is my first round of breaking in these Isaac Mizrahi pumps. I am in love, y’all. The footbed is super padded and the heel is manageable; give me these in about every color.
I wanted to get one of those blouses when that line was in stores and I totally dropped the ball – this reminds me how great of a top it was. You look great!
Love the blue/green color block, but the real star of the show for me is that FAB necklace! LOVE it!
Looking gorgeous as always!

How cute are you! I don’t think I ever got to thank you for sending me some ponytail know how- that was unbelievably kind and I’ve given it a go, it was super cute for a hot fifteen minutes before shrinking back down:) I’ll try again. Anyway- I’m loving this, you just radiate happiness!
This outfit is perfect from top to bottom. I love the dressy/casual combination and the perfect finishing touches with the necklace and pumps!

The top is lovely, simple but the colour combo makes it stand out. I love how you style it with jeans and heels to get the casual chic look. Just perfect, Ashley!
You’ve definitely succeeded in the comfortable but not boring look–you look fab! I love the color block blouse, and those pumps are the best. They look like the perfect mix for comfort and a little height!
I always try to check that back too with my more casual outfits, and you’d definitely checked the box with this look! Kelly green is one of my favorite colors and it look fab on you girl!
Love this top. At first I thought it was a sweater. Looks like it has a nice weight to it. Not to mention the color combination is perfect! Is P.L. getting preppy on us? I can only hope.
I love this blouse!
Blue and green look so great together! Love your top and those cobalt heels!
