The Base
Regardless of season I start 99.9% of every outfit with an underpinning also known as a basic. Warm weather means tank tops all day every day!
GAP is back (even though they never left) with a solid selection of staple pieces like this halter rib tank, love everything about this outfit and you can get it an extra 30% off using code GREAT
KOTN also has a nice selection of quality basics like this ribbed Racer Tank
The Bottoms
Denim and a nice basic is my go-to Summer look. SSENSE has some nice Levis on sale that are worth checking out.
Can’t go wrong with this classic blue jean, under $100 and 100% cotton
These Baggy Dad Jeans are perfect if you’re tired of high rise and want something cool and comfortable, see more photos (and a higher price) on Aritzia’s website
These Everlane Barrel Utility Jeans are 100% cotton, can be dressed up or down and despite slowly becoming oversaturated I support the barrel-leg denim trend
The Layer
Love a button up shirt under a crew neck sweater, as a cover up, worn open or closed. Style it many ways and know it will NEVER go out of style.
Can’t go wrong with a classic button up like this blue linen from GAP
A stripe shirt is another easy staple piece and Mango has this option as well as many others in cotton and other fabrics
The Final Touch
Finally, elevate with unique jewelry, a statement bag, colourful shoes, etc. Statement pieces are a way to style an outfit that could otherwise be considered plain Jane. Think fun earrings, quirky beaded bags or bright shoes.
Take your outfit from mid to elegant with Pearl Hoops from Mejuri
Please take a moment to look at how cute this Tommy Bag from Staud is (before you look at lower price point alternatives below) and appreciate the beautiful colours and beading detail
There aren’t as many colour choices but this is a fun piece that’s essentially a dupe for the Staud Tommy Bag
Silver accessories level-up a basic look and these L’INTERVALLE shoes are comfortable, made in Brazil and don’t break the bank
Obsessed with these textured rope sandals from Free People
The Base + The Bottoms + The Layer + The Final Touch = Outfit Perfection
Love it all. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
