Unintentionally Patriotic

August 22nd, 2012


Free People Sweater, Madewell Top & Belt, J.Crew Shorts, Robert Clergerie Heels, Mulberry Bag

Striped pieces are a well documented obsession of mine, especially when in the form of a long, textured cardigan. This outfit veered unintentionally patriotic when paired with red shorts, which I tried to balance out with my clunkiest platforms.

    As usual, such a cute outfit! I’ve always loved pairing sweaters with shorts…it reminds me of summer nights on the beach by a bonfire :)
