Down at the Docks
22 Jan
I have kind of been embracing more boyish styles lately. The moment I laid eyes these slouchy shpants, I knew they had to be mine!
Also, I am in the market for a new everyday white tee — thanks to the a-hole dog who peed on my favorite one at the beach in Santa Cruz, where it was accidentally abandoned on a washing machine. Dangit! The one I’m wearing here is great and all, but pretty see-through and one wash away from becoming a shredded disaster.
Any favorite t-shirt brands?! I’ll probably play it safe with a trusty James Perse or T by Alexander Wang…or maybe (just maybe), I’ll branch out and try something new!
Needless to say, I grow strong bonds with my basics.
*head to toe: Chanel sunglasses, BDG. tee, BCBG blazer and bottoms, Collina Strada bag, Alexander Wang heels

Love the bag, I’ve always wanted to try a James Pearse tee. They look so cozy.

Loving the shape and contour of these shorts, they look like Diesel too!
I have a few Alexander Wang tees that I love but hate that the length shrinks when you wash them, then they get kind of boxy, plus they are prone to getting holes!! I’m gonna have to find another fix too.

Ahhh, can I steal that white blazer from you?!?! you look adorb!! xo

I know what you mean about basics, so important! I always do such a terrible job getting them though, I get distracted by the more fun pieces. I love this look, and the contrast of your slouchy shorts and a.wang heels!

The perfect white tee is so hard to find, I’m sorry yours met an untimely end. I wish I could pull of slouchy shpants like you!

Love this look-the shorts are perfectly boy-meets-girl, and the shoes and bag you paired them with are perfect! I hear you on the need for basics (can’t live without a white and grey tee!) and I think James Perse is my #1 ;)

love it. I have an old kain one that is probably going to bite the dust any day now. James perese is a fave of mine too.

Love the scenery…gorgeousss. I also die over your blazer & ring. YSL? Beautiful regardless.
T by Alexander Wang is my absolute favorite. I don’t think you can do any better for the price!

Love it! Those shorts look SOOO comfy! If you are looking for a good t-shirt I LOVE Majestic Paris they are so soft and amazing. You can get them at Via C in nordies or I think bloomies carries them on the same level as Tory Burch in the SF store. They are my favorite. Such a cute look on you!
