Brush Your Shoulders Off

MLM Label Top / Vintage Polo Cutoffs / Target Wedges (similar) / Wren & Glory Ring / Kate Spade Initial Necklace / Outlette Necklace and Rings / Vintage Rings

Another key piece to add to your wardrobe this summer: anything off the shoulder. That dose of shoulder and collarbone add the perfect amount of femininity and slight sex appeal to anything you pair it with. I decided to pair my voluminous off-the-shoulder top with some tiny little cutoffs and a mix between a wedge and a platform. The contrast of proportions and the right dose of skin make this outfit great for a day of shopping into a night out with the girls. Shop the links above and brush your shoulders off a bit.

bodySUIT UP

Morgan Lane Bodysuit / Clo Intimo Bra / Vintage Levi Cutoffs / Alexander Wang Booties / Outlette, Wanderlust & Co via Rocksbox, and Vintage Rings

It's P.J. day in a new way. Wear your bodysuit out in public?! I've got the one. This Morgan Lane bodysuit is the perfect piece to spice up your look at home and while hitting the streets. With a bra underneath of course, you can pair this bodysuit with your favorite denim cutoffs or boyfriend jeans to bring the look a bit more down to earth. A classic black boot (with a bit of heel to lengthen the leg) and layering rings and you're on your way a look that's equal parts sexy and casual.

#LiveInLevis

L Train Vintage Levi's Buttondown and Cutoffs / Converse / Wanderlust & Co, Outlette, Handmade, and Vintage Rings

My true love for vintage started with my first pair of vintage Levi's cutoffs. I still have them and wear them even though they're half falling apart out of sheer love and nostalgia. So needless to say, there has always been a special place in my heart for Levi's! Here I decided to pay a special tribute to Levi's and my tomboy side while exploring Astoria, Queens. These cutoffs are a bit oversized so I switched things up by only keeping the top button secured. It adds a bit of surprise and sex appeal to what would've been as I like to call, "a full on boy outfit"! Happy exploring with #LiveInLevis!

Casual Cool

Casual cool-- this outfit highlights exactly what I've been into these days. Working in NYC can be exhausting and all I want to reach for in the morning is the comfiest thing I can find. But even if you work in the corporate world, you can totally rock a look like this on the weekends or at a casual "pint night" during the week. This grey suede is one of my favorite transitional jackets and yet another gem discovered in my mother's closet circa 1980. It works perfectly for this time of year when "it's not too hot, not too cold. All you need is a light jacket" alla Miss Congeniality. These shorts may not be as vintage as the jacket, but they are made out the bootcut jeans I wore in middle school... was the tallest girl in my grade those days. The key is finding a pair that isn't too tight in the thigh. Once you find 'em, take the denim to some scissors, the pavement, and voila: vintage-esque cutoffs.
