Sartorial Power Player: Striped Shirt!

24 Feb

str3A Striped button up shirt is a classic wardrobe staple that transcends genres and will never go out of style.  I prefer black & white stripes, but any  color combinations will work. From casual to chic, the possibilities are endless when it comes to this sartorial power player. A striped shirt can be worn with distressed denim, luxe leather, skirts, shorts and slacks. Your mom can pull it off as well as your 20 year old sister. Every wardrobe needs at least one.

Scroll down for some ideas on how to rock the striped button up.

My Favorite Summer to Fall Transition Look.

16 Sep

Here in California, seasons can be tricky because we don’t really have any. September cools down somewhat but overall we  experience an endless Summer while the rest of the country is quickly cooling down. This is when my favorite end of summer look comes into play- Good ol’ blue jeans and a white shirt! (T- shirt or button up) I wear this outfit with or without a white blazer and with shoes ranging from white chucks to strappy heels. It really is the perfect end of summer look when it’s just cool enough to bust out your jeans, but not cool enough for rich colors, textures or Fall layers.

Find inspiration below and check out Yourstylejourney on Instagram to see how I styled my personal blue jeans & white T look.
