The Look for Less: Stylish Basics for Summer

Jun 27, 2017

Split Sleeve Tops Kobi Halperin Split Sleeve Blouse ($298) // Banana Republic Split Sleeve Top ($98)

Professional, yet vented for the summer heat.  Try them with a printed pencil.

Cross Strap Sandal Cole Haan Anica Sandal ($130) // Topshop Cross Strap Sandal ($35)

A simple, stylish option for summer.

Navy Sheath Reiss Navy Sheath ($340) // T Tahari Sheath Dress ($98)

The ‘I Have Nothing to Wear’ go to work dress.

Tassel Crossbody Bag Gucci Soho Disco Bag ($980) // Phase 3 Tassel Crossbody ($55)

I’m not much for designer bags, but this one keeps drawing my eye.

Business Casual Outfit: Linen Closet
