DENIM BLUES.

j.crew button-up, pants & necklace, f21 top, aldo boots, gianni chiarini bag, men's timex watch, h&m bracelet & ring, bonlook glasses

finally purchased a perfect fit chambray button-up!  i have came across so many during my months of searching but i have not found one that was just right until now.  when it comes to pieces like this, classic and simple, i am a bit meticulous.  besides being painstaking particular on the perfect light denim wash, i look at the buttons ( i hate pearl-snaps on almost everything) and most of all, i look at fit.  this was the perfect length and fit just right on my shoulder-lines, it also has that nice light fade.  i will definitely be using this for many occasions as a layering piece or just by itself.  another staple piece in my wardrobe =)

-happy mondays everyone!

OFF THE CUFF.

h&m jacket & bracelet, aritzia wilfred top, thrifted jeans, aldo boots, men's timex watch, f21 ring, j.crew necklace, bonlook glasses

it's still pouring here in washington and so to keep it weather-appropriate, i wore this casual comfortable to keep me cool and dry while i run around.  i can't believe the first week of may is almost over.  midterms have almost passed and that means i am halfway closer to having two more quarters left to graduating!  

hope everyone is having a great week!
