I'm wearing a simple swing dress from Loft (surprise!) that is slightly too tight in the arms but I keep wearing it anyway because it's so easy. They currently have a sleeveless version (more colors here) but I'm partial to this Lou & Grey dress which looks really comfortable. Old Navy also has something similar and this one at the Gap is fine, but I'm partial to this French terry dress. I'd wear the hell out of that.
A plain dress needs a strong accessory and what's better than a red bag? Nothing, that's what. Mine is a vintage LV epi leather speedy but a great red bag doesn't have to be fancy. This red Frye bag is a glorious color and this adorable red Cambridge satchel is on sale! For a super-bargain, this MJ satchel at TheRealReal is a total steal. For your under-$50 option, this red Merona tote is pretty handsome. More details:
I can't wear my giant Ann Taylor tassel with just anything - it demands a blank canvas. I can't find anything quite as enormous but this multi-tassel necklace will definitely make a statement! You also can't go wrong with a Lulu Frost tassel, that is just the truth. For something slightly less gigantic, I'd go with this pretty option from Ann Taylor! Oh, and my bracelet is a Bijouone Screw Cuff (a blatant knockoff of the Miansai modern screw cuff.)
Finally, my sandal of the summer of 2017, my copper Birkenstock Gizehs. I know, I know, I'm sorry. They're just so comfortable and cute that I don't want to wear anything else. I also love them in silver but they're getting hard to find. Ooh, but there are a couple of sizes of the Madrid sandals in copper at Yoox and they're on sale! Go get em.
Oh now, all this talk about being simple...you just wanted to show off that cute Louise Brooks bob!
ReplyDeleteHey, a super-short bob doesn't get much more simple! (And I already did that on IG. 😁)
DeleteHoly cats! I love this whole outfit. It may be simple, but in a very chic way. And the new bob is magnificent. How do you get your hair SO super straight and silky all the way down to the ends?
ReplyDeleteWell, my hair is already pretty straight but I also use a flat iron on the ends.
DeleteWell you do a pro job! Thanks for the reply. My hair is also already pretty straight, but it wants to have flyaways and misbehave at the ends. Is there a special product you recommend for keeping the flat iron damage to a minimum?
ReplyDeleteI really like this stuff: Bumble & bumble Straight Blow Dry
DeleteThanks for the rec!
