Hi guys! Wow, it’s been so long since I’ve done an OOTD. I missed posting about them so much. I recently have been buying a few pieces to wear to London and Paris, but also to wear to my job at Nordstrom this summer. Yes, I’m working there again and I’m super excited! The look I put together today has all the summer vibes and will hopefully make for some great Europe photos and memories. I can’t wait to bring a little bit of California to London! Check out the full look below.
I’ve been finding myself buying a lot of white lately. Maybe because it makes your skin look way more tanned? LOL, whatever the case is, I’ve been loving it and it matches with so many different pieces. This top in particular is very out of my comfort zone since I rarely buy crop tops, but I’m glad I’m trying something new. I love the three buttons on the front, as they add a very bohemian/summery vibe. The tie is also one of my favorite things about this top. It’s super feminine and makes sense for the cut of this flowy blouse.
The textures and patterns of this top are simply stunning. I love how a white threading was used to create the shapes instead of some other color. The white on white is so elegant. I love a good top that has some longer sleeves as well, but they definitely aren’t too much fabric. The whole piece is light, airy, and perfect for warmer weather!
As for the shorts, I’ve never bought anything like them before! They are definitely a little longer than most shorts, but that seems to be a trend right now. I’m obsessed with the stripes and the muted blue tone. The best part though: these shorts have POCKETS! Yes, pockets! I didn’t even realize until after I bought them. Most shorts I’ve tried that are similar to these rarely ever have pockets, but they’re so helpful if you’re going to a fair, a concert, or a festival. I normally go to the OC Fair every summer, and these shorts will definitely be perfect for that occasion! I also love how there’s a cinched band along the waist, so they’re super stretchy and move with your body.
Lastly, as my choice of shoes, I slipped on one of my favorite pairs of sandals. They’re a tan color with two straps along the front and one around the back. I bought them at Tilly’s a while back, but they’re the perfect summer shoe. With this outfit, I think they look bomb and very laid back. They have a slight heel to them, making them a bit fancier than your average sandal. I love the white, blue, and tan colors together in one outfit. I’ve really been leaning towards these kinds of muted, toned down shades lately and I think they work well.
That’s about it for this OOTD! Let me know which piece was your favorite below in the comments. Also, what’s your favorite summer go to clothing item? I love hearing from you guys! Talk soon!
