Basic Instinct

November 14th, 2011

Vintage Sunglasses, Necklace, and Bracelets, Madewell Shirt, Club Monaco Skirt, Nars Heatwave Lipstick, Kelly Wearstler Clutch c/o, Dries Van Noten Heels, Essie “Topless and Barefoot” and “Cocktail Bling.”

Chambray shirts and leather skirts are easily one of my favorite casual-meets-polished combinations (as seen here), and I love that this one feels a bit more refined. The slightly longer skirt silhouette (plus leather pockets) with a sleek ponytail elevates the look so that it’s seasonally appropriate, but just as carefree.

I’m really liking a lot of the bottoms that Club Monaco is producing lately…ie. their faux leather leggings, this skirt!
