I wore this casual look downtown yesterday as I meandered and sipped ice coffee at my favorite spot. This outfit is pretty basic--just a white tee paired with patterned shorts. What really puts together this look and any look is through accessories. If I only wore this shirt with the shorts {removing all the accessories} it would look quite plain. With that said, don't leave the house without some form of accessories--it transforms a basic look to an amazing well put together one.
PS, isn't this historic downtown gorgeous!? I think so. And a shout out to my brother Andy for taking these amazing photos!
Hope everyone is having a great weekend! xo

Hey girl! Cute post. I love that you actually have nice photos, with a lovely backdrop! Good for your bro for taking the photos. I enlist the help of my gf for all my photo taking and she does a great job and has a lot of patience with me. On another note, I TOTALLY agree about accessories! An outfit is never complete with out accessories.

The necklace and your skin look so amazing in these shots. Great job pulling it together. You must be comfortable in front of your brother. I think that helps so much in the quality of the pictures. Are you No. Cal or So. Cal?
