Easy-Breezy Summer Separates

August 7, 2020

I hope you and your loved ones are doing well. I feel it is important to preface this new series of posts with a note to let you all know that I continue to remain sensitive about the content I am creating and sharing with you here on my platform, as well as on social media. I know that all of us are doing our best and taking it day by day, and understand that shopping, style and fashion are not a current priority to most. I have been in self-quarantine since mid-March, and am taking it very seriously. My boyfriend took these images with my iPhone in our neighborhood. We were VERY careful to keep our distance from everyone, and I wore a mask in between all of our shooting. I hope this brings you a bit of sunshine, inspiration, and a little bit of refreshing normalcy. Sending you all lots of love!

I have confessed in the past, that I am super lazy when it comes to getting dressed, and I would rather hit snooze a few times than get up early and fuss about my daily ensemble, especially because I don’t really dress up when I’m on set, and well- lets be honest, for the past four months of quarantine I haven’t been getting dressed anyway, so {insert shrugging girl emoji here}….

Getting dressed needs to be a no brainer for me, so when I am building my wardrobe, I always choose separates that are the perfect combination of classic meets trend {so they can stay in my wardrobe for several seasons}, and I can mix and match them into endless outfit combinations.

When I am going for separates to build my OOTD, my go-to formula is: a festive seasonal top Striped Button -Front Top + my favorite jeans Deluxe Fit High-Rise Skinny Jean + an over piece to polish off the look White Denim Jacket + my favorite accessories of the moment Espadrille Platform Sandals | Resin Geo-Shaped Hoop Earrings | Cateye Sunglasses (cream).

Cateye Sunglasses and Resin Geo Hoop Earrings are both currently on SALE!

I fell in love with this Striped Button-Front Tie Top as soon as I tried it on. I always love a classic button down shirt, and this one is a cotton blend with lots of stretch, so it’s perfectly lightweight for summer and great for layering to still stay cool, like I did with this White Denim Jacket, which is the same style you saw me where in my last post. Both of these classic jackets will stay in heavy wardrobe rotation season after season. This Striped Top is currently ON SALE, and the denim jackets are on 50% off clearance (get the white one here, and the medium wash here)!!!

These Deluxe Fit High-Rise Skinny Jeans have the perfect amount of destruction detail in the knee and ankle frayed hem. The medium wash is perfect for summer, and they have a “flex-magic waistband Deluxe fit”, which is a perfect fit if you are bigger in the waist and smaller through the hip and thigh, and these are currently on sale!!!
