Sometimes something easy like a blazer and jeans is the perfect solution to getting over hump day.  It's been awhile since I've given love to my skinny jeans, but these Grazer Cigarette skinnies are definitely my all-time favorite.  I'm so glad that the weather is finally out of the triple digits so that I can start appreciating them again!

I matched up my blouse with my pants -- mostly cause I wanted the hot pink blazer to be the star of the show.  In the case that I took off my blazer though, the monochromatic navy did look a little drab.  The flower pouf was the perfect little garnish to make the outfit pretty and feminine.  Oh, and of course, the pearls too.  :)

I love your little touches and thoughts like if I take off my blazer I need to have a little something. My brain does not work that way and it's a shame because you look great with or with out the blazer. 
Cheers, 
Bre

Ah!  This is soooo cute!  Those jeans are super flattering on you and I love the sheer-ish polka dot blouse!  You already know how much I love your blazer :)  And that added flower is such an easy and brilliant touch - very inspiring!!!

I love how you matched the top and the jeans to make the pink blazer pop. It's perfect!

I saw that blazer at Zara a while ago and knew it would be a hit with the petite bloggers! The colour is gorgeous and I love that it plays on the hot pink/orange colour blocking trend without being too stand-out. You look lovely as usual, Kileen!

I actually like this look, I like the polka dot top with the skinny jeans. You have actually managed to look quite chic, what a surprise! It's far better than the usual trying to hard outfits, you usually post. I did nt think Americans were capable of looking elegant, you surprise me.

Totally not drab without the blazer! Monochromatic is all over the recent J. Crew catalogs!

I agree...looking forward to wearing skinny jeans again! I am ready for cool temperatures!
