One Piece, Two Piece, White Piece, Blue Piece

As a 23 soon to be 24 year old, sometimes I feel like I’m living a double life. I mean where do you think “Hot Dress Hot Mess” came from? At work,  I’m surrounded by established adults talking about their latest investments and second homes as I nod  along secretly hoping I get to take home the left over food from our lunch. At home, I bargain between a $8 or $10 bottle of wine while scrolling through pictures of my friend’s new babies juxtaposed by Thirsty Thursday selfies.

Let’s just say, there’s plenty of room to have an identity crisis. For all you who feel like your life is a little disjointed, I have a short term solution for you: buy a matching coordinated outfit.

Matching two piece outfits, often referred to as co-ordinates or twin sets, have risen in popularity in the last few years. And it’s understandable why! The coordinating pieces guarantee a put together, stylish, and perfectly matched outfit. So while you’re slaying at work by day and eating Oreo’s for dinner by night, your outfit will always be on point.

I love matching sets because they require so little planning – all you have to think about are shoes and some accessories. That’s always a necessity when I’m running out the door after texting back that I left the house 10 minutes ago…you know you do it too.

I recently found this Goodnight Macaroon two piece set at Consign Couture –  my favorite consignment shop in Portland. Two piece sets are so convenient because you can style both pieces together or separately.

At this age, it’s safe to say our lives can be confusing to piece together. We go from conference calls to clearance sales, from bridal showers to bar crawls, and from networking to Netflix binging.

If you feel like you have split personalities or living two lives – don’t worry too much. At least we can buy 2 piece outfits that are guaranteed to match 100% of the time.

My Goodnight Macaroon two-piece outfit is from my favorite consignment store – Consign Couture!  Check out Consign Couture’s Instagram for amazing high-end, designer finds for affordable prices.

I also included these Sam Edelman sandals because they would look so cute with this outfit :) Also, I highly recommend Missguided for coordinated sets.
