STRIPED OFF-SHOULDER TOP / SHORTS (similar) / HAT (similar)
I knew when I shot this look I wanted to give off a vintagey vibe…think ‘Summer in St. Tropez circa 1975‘.
And not ‘Abandoned Bowling Alley Parking Lot circa 2017‘ which is where I actually took these pictures.
Haha, but you know, you gotta do what you gotta do, righttt?
I actually put this look summery look together on kind of a whim. When the top arrived it was very billowy and large in the front which totally did not flatter my figure. So I decided to try and tuck it in all around. That didn’t look quite right either so I left the front tucked in, but undid the back to let it flow free.
And I think it works!
I’m also wearing one of my most comfy pairs of high waisted denim shorts by BlankNYC. They’re from last year, but you can check out their entire current shorts collection right here.
They are seriously the softest and most comfy denim ever. Even when I’m in Nordstrom browsing the racks I always know when I flip to a pair of BlankNYC jeans because I can actually feel the difference in the fabric. (I literally did this today and was like, hmmm I should write about this in my post!).
And FYI, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale (#Nsale) is still going on until Sunday, so you can get tons of styles for 40% off! It’s worth checking out, even if you’re looking ahead to buy a comfy pair of jeans for Fall.

Anyway, this striped top is such a steal and on sale right now for only $14.99! Seriously, you can’t beat the price.
It’s perfect for summer because the fabric is light and flowy, which greatly reduces the chance of any visible sweat marks! Haha. I am all about practicality, people.
Not to mention, statement sleeves are such a hot trend this year and these bell sleeves definitely do not disappoint!
