I love casual wear as much as the next person, can't beat the relaxed feel and the comfort of laid back cotton clothing. Unfortunately casual wear can suffer from several sartorial pitfalls. One, it can look sloppy if it's wrinkled, stained or the wrong size. Two, it can look too mundane, t- shirt and khaki's are very common. How can you set your look apart and be seen as the unique individual that you are when you are swimming in a sea of casual khaki wearers? As you will see the the difference is in the details.
Today I pieced together a look, using items that were currently in my closet, to create an outfit that could be worn on a casual Friday at the office or a little weekend excursion (even if it's just running errands).

| Keep on climbing! |
What are your favorite pieces to wear on a casual day? Do you take the time to accessorize even on the weekends? How do you take a blah outfit and make it sparkle?
Again a big thanks to my brother,
Thomas Griffin for taking the pictures.
