Blouses like this black and white one (only $17!) that can do double duty as work and weekend wear are closet must-haves for me. I wear them constantly and thus am always on the lookout for pieces like them. I have them in all forms: long sleeve, short sleeve, and tank tops. I pair them with skirts, trousers, skinny jeans, and shorts. I layer them with blazers, under sweaters, and wear them alone. I love ones like this that are basic (white) but have fun detail like this black piping, because the milage I can get out of them is even greater. What are your double duty wardrobe pieces?
I just snagged these distressedΒ black boyfriend shorts from Gap on a recent sale, and I am loving them! They will definitely be a summer staple (I sized down).
Shorts: Gap // Sandals: Forever21 // Blouse c/o OasapΒ // Purse: Coach (similar, borrowed from my stylish Mom) // Watch c/o Daniel Wellington // Nail Bracelet c/o Honeybee // Rings c/o Honeybee // Sunglasses: Forever21 (old)

I love that you keep your outfits so classic and always add a twist! I love that staple top and I can understand why you own them in so many variations! I think my steady pieces are definitely a good trim tank top, something that I can layer under everything for every season.
I love your shorts and have been on the hunt for a good pair of boyfriend shorts! Lovely look all around. Hope you had a great weekend.

How nice of your mom to loan you her bag for these photos! I just love red (or hot pink) bags with an all black and white outfit like this. And I love the subtle black trim on the white top- perfect!

Loving these shorts, my current pair of black shorts are too big for me so you are totally tempting me.

What a cute top! I love when pieces are suitable for different settings, it makes your closet stretch even further π I’m super bummed I didn’t get those forever 21 sandals when I first saw them. They look great!
