A summer wedding outfit you can rewear as separates, the white jeans I got, and other great things I saw this week
A LIGHT DENIM SHIRT
This particular shade is perfect.
A KNOTTED T-STRAP
My favorite sandal style. Love the knotted detail on these ones. Bonus that they’re made responsibly by a woman owned small business.
A SUMMER WEDDING OUTFIT
Wear it to a wedding and then wear the top and skirt as separates a million more times. I love this shade of pink, it looks good on every skin tone. Chic and fun.
A STRUCTURED TOTE
Works from the office to the beach.
I BOUGHT WHITE JEANS
After gathering options here, I narrowed to these four and then got #2. My criteria were medium rise, zero stretch, straight leg, ankle grazing.
From left to right:
These are a true white, even though they look cream. They look perfect. I would have loved to try, but they didn’t have a good international shipping option to Europe.
I got these in size 27 and 28 here. Pretty sure these are the same ones at a better price (but not good for shipping to Europe). I’ll share pics when they come!
These are my faves, but they’re on sale in the US and full price in Europe. They’re a soft oatmeal color, so I’d be open to getting them as an off-white jean option. They also come in blue. Keeping my eye on them.
This is Doen’s new style. The rise is a hair lower than the others, so I veto’ed.
A COZY V-NECK THAT LOOKS GREAT WITH WHITE PANTS
This sweater is a splurge, but the quality justifies it.
THE NAUTICAL SNEAKER
Everyone from Lauren Hutton to Paul Newman has worn them. It looks like these have a slightly narrower toe than a typical Vans? I like it.
A CRISP WHITE BUTTON UP
Such a key piece. Alex Mill’s is half off and looks perfect. Go up two sizes. I like this one too - generously cut.
AN OUTFIT MAKING KNIT
Easy to wear and packs a punch.
A HAIR PIN
An elastic band damages the ends of my hair when I wear a chignon, so I switched to a hair pin. Zero breakage. Has helped so much as I grow it out.
I also use a pin when I do a hair mask (I just use coconut oil from the grocery store). I put the product in, and then pin my hair up. People always tell me I look “fresh” haha. It’s a sleek look that is actually fine to wear out and about. Looks like gel.
GINGHAM CIGARETTE PANTS
Way too cute. I want these.
A TRUE WHITE SWEATER
It’s actually quite hard to find a white sweater. They’re usually cream. This one is the perfect shade of white, and I love how the sleeves and torso billow out. Ideal V depth as well.

I have Alex Mill’s Jo shirt in 4 colors! The perfect button-down 🤍
That white sweater is gorgeous, I agree with you finding a true white is far more difficult than one would think it would be! Now that you're on the other side of the pond I'd recommend With Nothing Underneath's denim button downs, the quality is beyond and the washes are gorgeous, plus it's always nice to support a smaller sized business that is woman owned. Happy weekend! xx
