Keeping it neutral

Monday, June 06, 2016

Sometimes the simplest outfits are the chicest. 


This no-fuss look is super easy to put together and very comfy.  Flats can easily be substituted for heels for a more casual look.


I started with a great fitting pair of jeans. These mid-rise crops are by AG.



I love a white top, but so many of them seem to be super sheer. This blouse has an extra layer so you can't see through! 
Similar top HERE (I have this one in white and black--you'll love it!)



A pop of turquoise looks summery and beautiful. This ring is by Alexis Bittar.  A less expensive versions HERE .


Large gold chandelier earrings and a watch complete the jewelry for this look.


To keep things simple and uncluttered, my bag and sandals are both in a subtle pinky/nude color. Similar bag HERE and HERE.  Shoes HERE.


This blog was shot at the stunning Attwater Hotel in Newport, RI. Gotta love the fish wallpaper!




Glub glub (isn't that what fish say?).
