Oversized

Wearing: Jeans Joe's Jeans | Shirt Equipment | Sneakers Vince | Sunglasses Saint Laurent

I had been admiring this shirt for quite some time online before finally trying it on in a store, and I'll admit was disappointed at first to find that even the size extra-small was super big on me. (The problems of being five feet tall..) But I decided I kind-of like the oversize fit and bought it anyway. It makes this shirt perfect for a casual look that strikes the perfect balance between polished and unpolished. And paired with my new favorite jeans it looks even better.

Midterms have turned my brain to mush, so I honestly can't think of anything to write right now. Too much math on the brain to think about anything else. But for now enjoy the photos and shop above and I'll be back with something to say tomorrow.

Contrast

So I've finally put on shorts (well actually these pictures are from Memorial Day so I gave in a while ago). And I even went swimming, kind of. Anyways, I really love these shorts because lately I'm only into wearing things that are at least slightly high-waisted so these shorts are perfect. Plus the super light wash is so awesome too. Then there's the shirt, which I fell in love with the first time I saw it and I knew I had to have it. And even though it's a regular button-down I knew I wanted to wear it open to give it a more casual feel for summer. Lastly, there's the shoes, which were basically my way of giving in to the whole slide trend without actually giving in to the slide trend, if that makes sense. But it doesn't matter anyway because now I've got my eyes on something like these, which would be really giving in. 

Check It.

Here's just a really simple, easy look. I love the oversized, boxy fit of this tee, it just makes it so relaxed and super easy to wear. And since Equipments shirts are pretty much the softest shirts ever they are pretty hard to pass up. Paired with a pair of ripped jeans it's the perfect casual look. 

Full Bloom

What I'm Wearing: Jeans J Brand | Shirt Equipment | Blazer Aritzia | Shoes Chanel

Like I've said in previous posts, something about spring just brings out the girly-girl in me. I mean bright florals combined with an even brighter blazer, only the warm weather could inspire such a look. But aside from the overload of brights taking over my top half, I must also discuss the jeans. Now, these are the new J Brand stocking jean and in a promotion J Brand held an instagram contest where you basically just had to like a photo to win a pair of jeans. Somehow I magically won that contest. I know, it's crazy, like I honestly didn't think it was possible to win one of those contests. But regardless, about a week later these jeans were delivered and I must say they are one of the comfiest pair of jeans I've ever worn. They really hold true to their promise of ultimate comfort while holding their shape. It's safe to say these jeans will be a go-to item in my spring wardrobe.

Back In Plaid

What I'm Wearing: Jeans AG Jeans | Blouse Equipment | Boots Vince Camuto

I think it's pretty well established by now that I have a love, or pretty strong obsession, for all things plaid. So in that case, a perfectly plaid blouse is nothing new or exciting. Although I must say I love the colors of this blouse in particular because the pale pinks and yellow in the print make it perfect for spring. But the exciting part is that I bought it from The Outnet for 65% off. And while Equipment blouses are gorgeous, they do not come cheap, so getting one for more than half off is amazing. The best part, they have tons more styles on the site, plus lots of other brands too. Shop some of my other Equipment picks (all on sale at The Outnet) below:

Playing Favorites

I do try to switch up my wardrobe and try to wear new pieces or style old pieces differently, especially as winter drags on, but I am definitely guilty of playing favorites. I find that by the end of the season I'm basically wearing the same thing everyday, and it usually comes down to strictly comfort. So these pieces have been at the center of my wardrobe as of late. I love that these faux leather leggings are so comfortable but they add edge to any outfit. And this Equipment blouse with the black and gold always makes a statement. So it's comfortable, yes, but I always try to stay stylish too. 

Classic

Today's look is just a simple, easy outfit with a killer pair of shoes. What better way to spruce up your favorite pair of jeans and a comfy cashmere sweater, than to throw on an unexpected shoe? This pair from Tory Burch is perfect. Not only are they amazing, with the patent cap-toe, but they are also such a classic shoe that they will definitely last a long time.

Mix & Match

New day, new combinations. I decided to layer my floral Equipment blouse under my comfiest sweater for a relaxed look with a pulled-together feel. This time, since it was on the warmer side this weekend, I even rolled up the sleeves to give a peek of floral at the cuff too. And of course, I finished off the outfit with my wardrobe staples, some AG jeans and my Zara boots. 

Grayscale

I love a monochrome outfit. The way you can mix patterns, shades, and textures all in a singular color is just so fun. So when my mom bought this awesome equipment patterned blouse I knew I had to borrow it for an all gray ensemble. And I must say, I'm very happy with the end result.

I would love to introduce you to, drumroll please, my new bag. It was love at first sight, and since I'm very impatient and could not wait, this bag became a Hanukkah / extremely early birthday present. And while come June I might be slightly disappointed that I blew through part of my birthday money six months prior, at the moment I could not be happier. That classic shape, the gold hardware, this is a bag that will never go out of style. Which is good, because I'm pretty sure I've blown my pocketbook budget for the rest of eternity, or until I get a really good job. Anyways, while my Saint Laurent bag is definitely always going to be the focal point of any outfit I wear it with, I am still wearing some pretty good clothes too. Like this Equipment blouse, that I found on sale! Nobody does a blouse like Equipment, and nothing is better than finding one of those blouses on sale, because they do not come cheap.
