Dog Days of Summer

July 26th, 2010



H&M Shirt, Ben Sherman Jacket, Thrift Store Glasses, J.Crew and Forever 21 Necklaces, Vince Shorts, Jeffrey Campbell Wedges, Gryson Bag

Since I practically wear some variation of stripes every day (like this, this and this), I’m always looking for simple basics to pair with them.  Jeans couldn’t be less appealing lately, so I was pleased to find these denim cut-offs on sale this weekend.  I’m really particular about jean shorts and these are unbelievably thin, worn-in and most importantly not too short.  This was my uniform for thrifting this weekend (and will be for the rest of the summer), minus the five inch platforms that I threw on to go for an early dinner.

    I love your necklaces! J.Crew does have an AMAZING collection of necklaces, and even when worn with an ordinary H&M or F21 shirt, it makes the outfit look like a million bucks!

    Denim shorts and blousy shirts are my go-to summer outfit. The jeans I bought this year were perfect – the Joe’s Jeans Rolled Short in Blanchett (http://www.zappos.com/joes-jeans-rolled-short-in-blanchett-blanchett) — just in case you need a back-up pair.
