Sometimes you just want to ignore the style rules of summer brights and put on your cozy black denim, even if it is June and 94 degrees outside. Can never go wrong with what feels right. Plus, the tassels — notice how I’m mixing black and brown? — and the summery espadrilles “summer-ize” the look.
By the way, thank you all so much for your supportive comments from yesterday’s post; I was really anxious putting it out there and am so grateful for the response. I love this community.
Because the surgery has been something I’ve been considering all season I haven’t been purchasing many tops or dresses (which doesn’t make it easy to share a fresh look here each Wednesday). That said, I couldn’t resist this cute under $15 tee that I’ve worn with denim shorts and now with black denim. I’ve seen distressed tees (I guess that’s the term?!) for $80-$90, which I personally think is insane, but this, with a fun saying… yes, please.
Tee: Forever 21 // Denim: J. Brand // Espadrilles: Soludos (or here) // Purse: Rebecca Minkoff (sold out; look for less) // Watch: Shinola // tassel bracelets: Shashi // Sunglasses: Ray Ban

June 8, 2016 at 1:27 PMI LOVE the bag and got it during the shopbop sale however I think it’s mostly sold out. Did you see I’m linking to one from Etsy for around $30-$40? So cute, and you get the same effect for way less. If I didn’t have this I’d definitely go that route. PS: I’m going to LA this summer (in August!).
