Hey hey! I’m back with another round of Fitting Room Diaries! If you are new here, I hit the fitting rooms of some of my favorite stores and try on a bunch of new arrivals and take pics of them while sharing fit and styling advice with all of you! This week, I hit up my local Target at the request of my Instagram followers and I ran into a little issue.
You see, Target is dangerous – we all know this. I walked into their fitting rooms with legit like 40 different items of clothing. I’m talking ALL the stripes, random t-shirts, some leopard obv and I was like, this is RIDICULOUS. I needed to make it easier and more attainable for all of you SOOOOOOOO I chose 8 pieces of clothing that I can mix and match into a bunch of outfits so you can get more bang for your buck. In fact, all 8 pieces total about $206 and they can all be worn now and transitioned thru spring as well! So I took pics of a bunch of combinations of each look, but for any I missed, you can visualize it, right?!!
So here’s the lineup with the sizes I’m wearing in each piece:
White cami – size small
Gray tee – size small
Striped blouse – size small
Striped cardigan – size small (could have done an XS)
Jean jacket – size small (size down for a less oversized look)
Distressed black skinnies – size 2 (fit TTS)
Mom jeans – size 2 (fit TTS – mom jeans should be a little loose fyi)
Striped palazzo pants – size 2 (fit TTS)
gray tee + striped palazzo pants + jean jacket
tee | pants | jacket | booties | necklace | earrings
I am a jeans kinda gal 99% of the time, but I was drawn to these pants! They are SO out of character for me, but that’s fun sometimes, right?!! Plus, I’ve never met a stripe I didn’t like, let’s be honest! Since these are “statement pants,” I added simple neutrals (as always) to “ground” the look! This simple gray tee can be worn with literally anything and I love an oversized denim jacket draped over my shoulders!
Its such an edgy, yet chic look that I would totally wear for brunch with the gals!

I quick changed out of the striped pants and added these high-waisted distressed black skinnies! Everyone needs a pair of these in their closet! This pair fits TTS and almost have a compression-type fit which I was weirded out by at first, but loved once I got them on! They give a teensy bit but not so much that they’ll totally stretch out and lose their shape! They are slit at each knee and have a raw, step hem! For $20, these jeans are a HUGE YES!
This look is perfect for weekend errands or kids drop off and pick up! You could even add a pair of casual sneakers to dress it down a smidge!
white cami + striped cardigan + mom jeans
cami | cardigan | jeans | booties | necklace | earrings
A white cami can be worn so many ways as can this neutral camel and black striped cardigan! Mom jeans just go with everything in my book, so I really loved this casual combo! I’m wearing a small in this cardigan, but could have done an XS – they just didn’t have one in store! Also bc I get this question a lot, yes I am busty (I wear a 34D in most bras) and the size small cami fits me in the bust no problem!
This look works for me for any day of the week honestly! I love casual style and since I work for myself, it’s work appropriate too!
striped blouse + distressed black skinnies
blouse | jeans | booties | necklace | earrings
First of all, can we talk about how my necklace and earrings work with every look you’ll see in this post? These are two of my OG faves that I wear on the regular and this just proves how good they are bc they work with literally anything!
ok, back to the clothes… I love stripes, clearly! I also loved the rust color of this blouse and its ruffle sleeve! I kept this look simple with those black distressed skinnies and just lovin’ this look for date night!
Ok so this is where we start mix and matching! Since I shared fit info above, I’ll just link up each piece and share where I’d wear each look! Cool? Cool!

I hope you enjoyed this little twist on the Fitting Room Diaries! I thought it would be fun to give you a bunch of different styling options for a handful of pieces over one outfit that you can’t mix and match! That’s also the beauty of a neutral wardrobe, you can usually mix and match it all!
