The old saying goes ‘No White After Labor Day‘…well I am firmly against that belief (as if that weren’t already obvious hehe :p). I LOVE wearing white jeans year round and decided to share some of my favorite looks featuring white jeans AND rounding up my current picks. Whether you are looking for a skinny fit, distressed style or flared out look, I got ya covered with these picks that are all under $200 from Nordstrom, ShopBop + Old Navy!
This chic look is a favorite of mine for the office or even date night 🙂
I just feel that white jeans really pull a look together. They are crisp, clean + can easily be dressed up or down! I think fashion rules have pretty much gone out the window as of late — I mean nowadays everyone just dresses how they like 😉 My personal preference? WHITE JEANS way after Labor Day hehe I suppose I am guilty of confessing a fashion faux paux!
Happy M O N D A Y ♥ I definitely have a case of the Mondays…I feel like the weekend simply flew by (although I spent the entire weekend binging Netflix — I watched Mean Girls + the Minions movie twice each haha :p). Any who, back to the Monday grind and what better way to get ready to seize a new week than with a chic and crisp look like this one! White jeans, white pumps + a simple off the shoulder blouse from Sammy Dress (P.S. it’s under $10!)…simple + classic…one of my favorite go-to styles!
I have had a slight obsession (ok, more than slight hehe) with off the shoulder blouses as of late. This striped off the shoulder blouse from Sammy Dress is under $10 (yup, not kidding) and is a great staple to add to your wardrobe for work or play. Even though this top is under $10, the quality is still amazing! Plus, Sammy Dress has pretty fast shipping even though it’s coming internationally AND their customer service is super response and you can receive text notifications for the shipping status! YES! Anyways, I styled the top here for the office with classic white skinny jeans (this pair from Old Navy…they fit like a glove) + white pumps.
I kept the outfit simple with a metallic silver clutch (similar options linked to below) 🙂
What I love about metallics is that they match with everything and can be dressed up or down depending the occasion!
Giving the cold shoulder ♥ Happy Monday! I finally got my hands on a ‘chic‘ off the shoulder blouse from my new favorite fast-fashion website, Make Me Chic! Can you believe they are selling this totally ‘on-trend‘ piece for just $22! I have been searching for an off the shoulder top all summer and this one is everything I’ve dreamed of (literally…dreamed of haha). This top is going to be one of my signature pieces for year round wear (joys of living in LA…I can wear off the shoulder pieces even in the winter)!
My shoes are a great pair to have for any occasion. I love a great block heel, since they are super comfortable to walk in no matter how long the time in them AND the nude color will match with every possible outfit!
This Vera Bradley crossbody bag (similar) is also another great piece to have. Whether you wear it for weekend errands or for a night out, this bag matches with everything and has room for your wallet, keys + makeup 🙂
Another new piece I am wearing this lovely Monday is this watch from Jord – Wood Watches! I never thought a watch made of wood was A) possible or B) cute…clearly I was wrong, because I LOVE this watch! It’s totally unique and honestly way more comfortable than wearing a metal or leather watch (who would have thunk :p)!
My sunnies are from Nectar (available on Amazon). I really love the shape and how they are mirrored and run under $30! No fear of loosing or damaging them when you can simply snag another pair without breaking the bank 🙂
My gold glitter acrylic necklace was an Etsy find and it makes me feel slightly preppy without over doing it haha :p I am not sure why, but I see tons of southern bloggers wear it haha!
Happy Monday Babes ♥ I am so excited to share this shoot because I finally spotted one of the most popular places to snap photos at in LA…the Made In LA sign over in WeHo! It’s funny after I moved out of WeHo + to Burbank, I found all of the cool spots to shoot at there haha oh well, guess that just means weekend field trips to West Hollywood! :p
Anyways, another reason I am loving today’s post is because as you may know, I LOVE white jeans year round, especially for summer…and especially when they are paired with stripes! This is one of my favorite affordable combos! My striped tank is just $10 from Target (here) + my jeans are on sale from Old Navy!
I can’t get enough of this striped Merona top from Target. Crazy to think it’s become one of my favorite summer tops considering it’s only $10 (I am stocking up on this style of tank in a variety of prints + colors it fits so well and it is such great quality)!
I feel similarly about my Old Navy Rockstar Jeans. For years they have been my go-to without fail. They have survived countless washes, date nights, weekend adventures + traveling cross country…they are truly my favorite pair of jeans + I stocked up on them in every color 🙂
These black ankle strap heels are perfect for any occasion. I found them on clearance at DSW years ago but found a similar style at a low price point from Oasap (here).
My black sunnies were a J Crew find but found that this RayBan style is verysimilar 🙂
My yellow hobo bag is from Hayden Harnett (no longer available)…I believe they are ‘rebranding‘ but I found similar yellow bags below!
On Friday’s I wear P I N K♥ I know the saying goes ‘On Wednesday’s we wear pink‘ but…sorry for the delay in posting, between playing tour guide to my little brother who is here visiting me from NY + coming down with a cold…I have been down and out for the count :p Plus now being sick sucks and kinda puts a damper on my LA tour festivities I had planned…hopefully I get better soon (at least before my brother heads home…what a lame trip that would be if I were sick the whole time lol).
Anyways, while I may be feeling glum, my outfit is far from it! Adding a bright ‘Pop Of Color‘ with this NordstromRack top is just what a sick Missy needed :p
Neon is a sure way to cheer anyone up. Wearing bright colors is a great way to stand out this summer! I LOVE this cami from NordstromRack because it’s perfect to pair with denim shorts for a BBQ or with white jeans + heels like I did here for a night out! Dressed up + ready to go…here’s how I got the look!
My white skinny jeans are from Old Navy (their Rockstar jeans fit me like a glove)…they are usually on sale + they have a little stretch so even if you ‘pig‘ out a tad at dinner, they are still comfy :p I have worn these to a few dinners at Craig’s while my brother has been in town hehe
I love this Shira Melody necklace because it is fun and adds color to any look (even a look that already has a ton of color :p) plus it is the go to accessory for gals on Instagram this summer and I can totally see why!
My gray suede pumps are from my boo Cameron Silver’s capsule collection with Nine West (Cameron owns Decades boutique on Melrose…aka my favorite place to shop for vintage designer pieces). While they are no longer available, the gray suede pointed pumps trend is perfect for work or play year round. They match with everything + the gray hue is timeless and classic.
My bag is from Nicole Lee. I love the structured satchel style because it reminds me almost like Chanel, classy, chic + very clean and neat. This satchel however has some cute details…perforation, floral embroidery etc.
