Classic

Thursday, September 20, 2012

The most classic staple in my closet- the button down shirt! Probably one of my most favorite items to wear because they’re easy and so versatile. They easily transition from day to night or from work to play time just by switching out your bottom! 
I always like rollin’ up my sleeves for that extra detail or tucking a part
of the front shirt into my jeans… those little details totally make a difference for me.
Now, I’m off to run some errands and do some work..
in the meantime, tell me what’s on your mind!
