You know what's cooler than wearing black & white with a pop of color? Wearing black & white with a pop of neutral. I have to say, I really think it's probably my favorite combination to date. For this ensemble, I started with these amazing scalloped shorts I purchased last summer from Marshall's. Yup, you read that right, Marshall's. I jumped for this piece, because not only was it a simple, nude, short amongst an array of bold patterns, the fabric of these shorts is not the Marshall's norm. Expensive looking, durable, and easy, it's a pair of shorts in a million.
For the rest of the look, I wanted to get a little creative with a contrasting textile. I thought this graphic lace tee did just the trick. I purchased this baby back in Salerno last May, (omg, bring me back now) and it's become one of those staple pieces in my wardrobe that I don't think I'll ever give away or get rid of. It's simply too beautiful! The black lace adds a ton of dimension and really pops off the shorts. Obviously, this look couldn't be complete without a little pang of color, so I decided to add this gorgeous burnt red bag, and finished it off with these adorable and most comfortable slip-ons.
"How noble in reason, how infinite in faculty,
in form and moving how express and admirable,
in action how like an angel,
in apprehension how like a god --
the beauty of the world, the paragon of animals!"
[Hamlet 2.2]
