Centerpiece Looks


Shirt: H&M (Spain)
Shorts: Zara
Belt: Italy
Shoes: Gap
Bag: Lucky Brand
Earrings: Vintage

Sometimes I find it difficult to put together an outfit that works for an entire day's activities. So I usually pick one item of clothing that is the, say, centerpiece, of the look. Then from there you can change the accessories and accompanying garments. Yesterday I picked a long plaid shirt, sleeves folded up 3/4 of the way, as my centerpiece.
On a humid day grabbing a quick bite of lunch at a cafe or chain, such as Panera, I paired the shirt with a chunky belt, hemp shorts and flat sandals.



As it started to rain before I drove to work, I untucked the shirt, ditched the belt, and threw on some BCBG gray jeans, keeping the shoes. (Later when I met up with friends for dinner I cuffed the jeans, for a more casual look.)
