black & white


It doesn't get much more simple than a white-button up and black bottoms. There are so many variations of the combo though (infinite white tops X infinite black bottoms = infinite possibilities) that it never gets boring for me. I can't say how many white-button ups I own, but I still feel as if there is always room for more of them in my wardrobe...I mean, aren't we all on that elusive eternal quest for the perfect one? I know I am!

back to basics


Lately my mind has been on paring down to the essential basics so I reached back into my hard drive and found some old but good inspiration from a New York trip I took this time last year. My favorite slashed-up leggings (which are now available here) and my favorite white shirt and my favorite hat (which I lost when I left it behind on the airplane and am still super depressed about as I have yet to find a suitable replacement). Packing such versatile and well-loved pieces is absolutely ideal when traveling, especially if you like to pack light like me (struggling with large pieces of luggage and/or paying excessive checked baggage fees are the bane of my existence). The leggings have a cool woven cut-out pattern running along the back and the shirt is super sheer. So nice and airy when it’s hot and humid out!
