the blues

hey nancy,

do you have a chambray shirt yet?  they are so perfect right now & can be worn with anything.  i love them with leather shorts or skirts.  they really ground any bottom & make it look casual.  you can even wear denim on denim, which can seem scary, but look great as you see here.



urban outfitters has this lark & wolff by steven alan chambray shirt.  it's a cute relaxed boyfriend shape.  it can act as a light jacket, especially in the southern california weather over there.


levi's has the annie western shirt & you know i love my western shirts.  the great thing about the western shirts is that they are usually more fitted & can look both feminine & casual.  also, there is less bulk when tucking them into skirts.  & of course, they add a rock & roll edge.  best of all, if you feel lazy, just throw it on with a pair of jeans & you have an instant cool outfit.  the levi's store often has great sales so i suggest going to the store to take a look.


j.crew has the short-sleeve selvedge chambray shirt, which can be a little more preppy in feel.  i like it though.  it kind of also feels more masculine when you roll up the sleeves a little, which can be fun.  i think they would look great with white jeans or denim shorts like they have in the picture.


now, i know you like a little something more exciting now & then & i think this urban renew cold shoulder denim shirt from urban outfitters would look so great on you.


i know the prices of these shirts can be a little higher, but it's because of the fabric & all the wash treatments the factories have to do.  they really are worth it in terms of how often you will reach for them in your closet.  i wear mine once a week at least!  sometimes, i have to stop myself from wearing it because i know i should wear everything else in my closet.

alright, talk to you later!
