All in the Details

Sometimes the details make an outfit. For me, I fell in love with this blouse because of the button detail on the shoulder. And I love the idea of pairing a nicer blouse with a destroyed straight leg jean so it becomes a more casual look. Then for an extra detail I added a pair of fishnet socks to peek out between my jeans and my boots. 

Golden

Yellow is not typically a color I gravitate towards. However, there was something so perfectly vintage-y yet current feeling about this blouse that I couldn't pass it up. I love it paired with distressed, high rise denim for a cute but casual look. 

Slide

I found the perfect summer slides, and they were on sale (and they're on sale in the link above too). These slides easily work for everyday or for the pool. I especially love them worn super casually with a pair of boyfriend jeans. This pair from Citizens is the perfect pair, trust me, I've been searching for a while. They fit just like a perfectly tailored pair of vintage jeans. But if you do buy them I recommend sizing down depending on how loose you want them because they do definitely run big. 

Again

I may have said it a few (million) times, but I love off-the-shoulder tops for summer. These tops are great for festival season too, and this one in particular is definitely being packed for FireFly. 

Off The Shoulder

Off the shoulder tops will definitely be a go-to all summer long. They're so easy to wear and they make any outfit look cooler. I love the casual feel of this blue one which makes for the perfect weekend look when paired with jeans and sneakers. And of course an off the shoulder top gives you the perfect opportunity to accessorize with a choker (or a bandana too). Shop off the shoulder tops below:

Tropical

I normally don't wear a lot of prints but when I saw this top I knew I needed to have it. Unfortunately, it seems to now be sold out, but shop other tropical prints below:

Jacket and Jeans

I'm pretty sure I would have been very happy as a rebellious teen boy in the 50's because a leather jacket and jeans is my go-to look. It's a simple look that always works, and this spring add a bandana for a little something extra. I love this silk one from Free People because it has four different colored squares so you can change the color of it depending on what your wearing. 

The Bomb

The way to make any outfit better this spring is definitely to add a statement bomber jacket. I love this one from Urban Outfitters with floral embroidery. It's perfect thrown over a simple tank and jeans. And to take things up another notch I added lace-up heels (which I borrowed from my sister).

Wide Leg

Ok, so, thanks to this crazy weather this outfit would have been totally unacceptable to wear this week, but I'm hoping the weather will allow me to wear it again soon. I was a little afraid of the wide-leg trend at first because of my height, but with the right tailoring I believe anyone can wear a wider leg. And thanks to the popularity of frayed jeans, if you want to you can just cut them yourself instead of paying for a hem. (Although, to be honest I paid to have these cut because I don't trust myself to cut a straight line.)

The Fray

If my post last week wasn't enough to understand my love for frayed denim, here I am in one of my favorite new pieces for spring. I love how the white denim top makes the denim on denim aspect of this outfit slightly less obvious. And since the outfits pretty basic I added some color with my green boots and another trend I love for spring, scarves. Shop some of my favorite denim pieces from last week's post here, and shop scarves and bandanas below:

Trench

Aside from a leather jacket or a bomber, another great alternative for a spring jacket is the trench coat. A lightweight trench can add a touch of sophistication to all your spring looks. Shop all different kinds of trench coats below:
