Don't you guys love how a white button-down shirt can smarten up an outfit? When I'm having one of those "I don't feel like getting dressed" days, I throw on a crisp white shirt and my problems are solved. A good quality white button down shirt is a must for every woman. You can pair it with jeans, slacks, skirts, and shorts. Regardless of what you pair it with, the look is always elevated and chic.
I chose to pair my white shirt with Levi's jeans and L.A.M.B open toe booties. These shoes are one of my faves. They're so unconventionally pretty and, despite their 5 inch heel, they're super easy to walk in. To top this look off, I pinned one of my favorite brooches to my hip and in two seconds I was out the door and off to the movies. Too bad I was a whole week early for the movie I actually wanted to see :(. I swear, I'm either a week early or a week late for everything!
Thanks so much for all the encouragement about the scholarship! I'm so happy that the idea was well received. I look forward to hearing from all the young ladies who may be interested.
Lots of Love,
Jillian

Hello,
ReplyDeleteStarted following your blog after Regine posted the link on her page. I visited the ASOS website and I just received my order. I love my choices even though one of the jumpers is too big, I will just cinch it with a belt because I love it so much. I love the idea of a white shirt and jeans and heels. I have been getting into the necklace thing and I found a shop in Atlanta that I visit on a regular basis. www.bombay-gal.com
Regine is definitely the flyest fashionista I know :). ASOS sizing is really tricky but it helps that they have a really great return policy and free shipping. I visited the bombay gal website and I must say I am in love. Thanks for introducing me to such a cool site.

Jillian
The return policy is great. I will definitely visit them again in the future. The owner of the bombay is great and she sends me updates when they get new items. What I really like about it is that she doesn't have more than 3 of one item so you won't find the whole neighborhood wearing the same item. : )
DeleteThanks for sharing that link to bombay gal... I live in Atlanta area and will most definitely be visiting the shop... :-)
DeleteI'm absolutely in love with you blog...This is extactly what I've been looking for..very classy and chic.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Jecinta. I appreciate your visits and your comment. It's always good to know that someone is out there. Plus, I looovvvveeee to chat!

ReplyDeleteThank you so much!!! Your comment just made me laugh out loud. I needed that!

That is too cute. Lately I've been on a hunt for a plain whtie button down. I don't know if I'm off for what im looking for but is your white button down rather loose on you?
ReplyDeleteLookingreat!

Yes missy! I usually buy my white button down shirt a size larger than I usually wear because I am a little busty. Stores like Banana Republic, J Crew, and Ann Taylor are good spots to find plain white button down shirts.
