Remember the dressed up dressed down posts I used to do? I love doing them because it’s totally real life. I spend all day in a basic outfit, and then make a few changes to go out for family date night, or date night with my husband, or girls night with my friends. Just a couple of quick changes and the outfit becomes totally evening appropriate.

I’ve teamed up with Nordstrom to share a dressed up dressed down idea for this basic ruffle tee from Nordstrom and my favorite jeans from BlankNYC. I’ve been living in these jeans, as you guys know — they were my favorite purchase from the Nordstrom sale and now they’re fully back in stock!

For daytime, sneaks, a big bag, and a ponytail make for an easy momiform. For evening, swap bags for a small bag just big enough to carry your credit card, phone, and a lipgloss. Then add some chunky heels (always my go-to cause we usually like to walk around after dinner), and a jacket for when the sun goes down. Easy peasy.

My dressed up dressed down posts are some of my favorite.  I love doing them because they help me get more out of my closet. A basic momiform of a simple tee and a pair of jeans is often my everyday look. Then just a couple of quick changes and the outfit becomes totally evening appropriate.

    You always look so effortlessly stylish! I like these both outfits, the more casual one and the more dressier one as well. 🙂

    Do you find it difficult to wear a ruffle sleeve tee like that under a jacket? I haven’t tried it yet but am wondering if it’s comfortable…the ruffle part of the sleeve must flip up when you put the jacket on?

    Love these two looks. Your little one is so cute also!
