You can totally tell that everyone (at least downtown) steps up their outfit game. It’s a great week for outfit inspiration and also a good excuse to try out new looks. I’m sure by now you can tell I’m a jeans girl to the fullest. I think it’s mostly because I’m always so cold, not that I actually don’t like wearing dresses. So,…

When you really want something, be it a new handbag, shoes, sunglasses, I find that: 1. Constructive Daydreaming (ie. starting the thought process…

A Western Element

Bodysuit: American Apparel, similar here and here | Skirt: old, similar here, steal here | Shoes: Via Spiga (on sale for $65!!) | Bag: Chanel | Belt: Asos | Watch: Daniel Wellington (use simplybysimone for 15% off your order!)

This detail stems from the 19th century American west or frontier. This was a time of exploration, discovery, taking risks and a search for new opportunities. The fashion…
