SUMMER BLUES

Lately, I've been so in love with over-sized button down shirts and this particular button down has got to be my absolute favorite one. I recently purchased this shirt when my boyfriend and I were having our "Sunday Funday" in downtown New Orleans. While strolling down the busy streets, we decided to stop into Urban Outfitters and take a look around. Originally, I was looking at a pair of sandals at Urban Outfitters but then in the corner of my eyes, I spotted a rack full of over-sized button downs and flannels. Boy, was I in heaven! If you know me, anything that has that over-sized, comfortable look has my name written all over it. There were so many different kinds but the one I decided to pick up was this blueish/gray pin-stripped top. I literally tired this top on five times in stores because I was so indecisive if it was worth the price point. For a top being $60, I really had to be in love with it to actually buy it. I definitely knew I was in love when I couldn't leave the store without it. This button down is seriously everything. The material is made out of linen, so it's really soft and comfortable to wear. It's also lightweight and breathable, perfect for the hot summer weather. Lastly, the pin-strips and color adds a classic and versatile touch that can be worn from daytime to nighttime and can be paired with basically anything.

I paired my button down top with my medium wash, distressed TopShop jeans that I bought at Nordstroms, my classic light-weight, silver Michael Kors watch, and a simple pair of tan block heels that I bought at Target.
