Accessory Play

Mens American Rag Buttondown / BDG Highrise Cutoffs / Grenson Loafers / Patricia Fields Sunnies / The Shopping Bag Ace of Spades Clutch and Wishbone Necklace

I wouldn't call myself an "accessories girl" (maybe a shoe girl) but once a while I find some perfect pieces that add that special touch to my look. In true tomboy form, I stole this shirt out of my boyfriend's closet and paired it with a slim pair of black cutoffs (that slightly resemble bike shorts but let's not get ahead of ourselves here...that's next's week's post). I took this simple outfit combo and added those "special touches" with this Ace of Spades clutch and wishbone necklace. The simple gold necklace is a perfect everyday jewelry piece and the clutch adds a bit of streetstyle playfulness to the overall look.

The Essentials

Denim Cutoffs - The best ones are always vintage or homemade! My shorts from Amarcord (see Favorite Shops page) were the true beginning of my "vintage vice". If not vintage, dig up your old pair of bootcuts from high school or visit your local Goodwill and chop 'em off!

Nude Sandal - A neutral shoe can never do you wrong. It elongates your leg and goes with practically everything. I fell in love with these nude sandals from Zara with the perfect mid-heel in a festive gold.

Your Boyfriend's Tee - My favorite place to find the softest tees that hang perfectly= MENS section. Goodwill, Target, you name it, mens tshirts are always softer with a looser fit and "non-girly" graphics.

Leather Crossbody - This bag never goes out of style. The leather cross body is another great item to search for at vintage shops or garage sales. Look for real leather in good condition and in a classic shape. I found mine for $3 at an Estate Sale in Long Island.
