Latest Outfit: Lighten Up

White blazer, powder blue silk and cotton tee, grey statement necklace, faded cuffed jeans, nude pointy-toe ankle strap flats
J. Crew tee | RW&CO. blazer (c/o) | Banana Republic jeans | Benji Frank shades (c/o) | J. Crew Factory necklace | BCBGeneration shoes (from Style NV) | Longchamp 'Le Pliage' tote | Lips: Revlon Lip Butter 'Tutti Frutti'

Spring is half over and summer well on its way, but I'm not ready to trade jeans for sundresses and ballet flats for strappy sandals quite yet. My solution for these in-between weeks is a mixture of wear-all-the-time basics (jeans, tee, blazer, statement necklace) in a lighter colour palette. Of course, the right shoes anchor the look, and these BCBGeneration 'Tilda' flats from Style NV embody my in-between sartorial approach perfectly: slightly more open than a ballerina flat, but still close-toed. I love the updated d'Orsay shape with the thick ankle strap, three-stripe buckle detail, and pointed toe, as well as the versatile nude leather. They're a sophisticated shoe option for everyday, but especially those times when I'm between pedicures (shhh).

    1. Thanks, Jennine! The tee is actually a very faint powder blue IRL

    1. You could always get a less expensive one and just try the look. I wore this blazer so much last summer; definitely a great staple to have!
