Mix Up Your Montauk

WGACA Vintage Chloe Top (similar knit or similar pineapple) / Vintage Moschino Pants via The Bargain District (similar or similar or similar) / Madewell Sandals / Gorjana Bracelet and Sophie Harper Ring via Rocksbox / Outlette Necklace and Rings 

With the Fourth of July approaching and just about every New Yorker heading to either the Hamptons or Montauk, I found it the perfect opportunity to highlight a look that will set you apart from the rest. One of my new favorite tops... maybe ever... is this vintage Chloe knit pineapple top. Island and vintage vibes make it a perfect choice for a hot summer day paired with denim cutoffs or overalls. I decided to chic it up a bit by adding these white, pinstripe Moschino trousers. A stiff material and oversized leg are a fresh take on the typical linen we adopt during the summer months. Keep a slouchy bottom by wearing them low rise with flat sandals. Shop similar links above and make a chic statement.

Snoopin' Around

One thing I love about fashion is that it always keeps the imagination alive. I love how lately different designers have been really going out on a limb and pushing the limits. It's been Barbie and Spongebob at Moschino, race cars at Marc by Marc, and groceries at Chanel. I'm a firm believer in being a little goofy, and embracing the different. So naturally when I found this Fay Snoopy top at Buffalo Exchange in Chelsea, I had to have it.

By pairing Snoopy with these vintage cropped trousers I snagged at Goodwill for a whopping $7 and this vintage handbag at a garage sale for $2, I managed to turn a bit of a kooky top into a chic look (and without breaking the bank!) Just another great example of mixing vintage and modern for a polished, but fun, result. Check out the links above to shop the look and the designer pieces!
