I never managed to get my paws on the above (past season) J.W Anderson top, but now, (of all people!) comes to the rescue with this super chic and way less expensive . Sold!

Among all the new trendy fall looks trickling into stores right now, my favorite silhouette is the puff sleeve blouse. This voluminous style feels fresh and feminine, and the airiness reflects next season's oversized '80s vibe. Bonus: these blouses also work now.

French chic was on full display this past week, and this street style pic demonstrates how we can easily import that je ne sais quoi into our own wardrobes. Put simply: it's all about the classics!

Crisp white jeans always work, day and night, especially these flattering styles from , , and . A quilted Chanel bag and ballerina flats are timelessly chic.

All I wanted to do was a wear a pretty, summery dress for a work lunch in Malibu yesterday. I tried on at least five frocks before deciding to wear something else that felt just as summery: a one-shoulder statement top and wide leg cropped jeans (my favorite ever!). The skin-revealing top fulfilled my desire for something feminine but still was easy and comfortable. Now I'm thinking I can't have enough of these outfit-making blouses and loving these by (above), , , (I'd wear it as a top), (or this that I almost wore yesterday!), , and . P.S. The flared jeans, above, can be found .

Pinstripes add a little Southampton-chic to a pair of white jeans.

I love how LA-based designer and blogger Julie Sarinana puts a sophisticated spin on a pedestrian summer uniform-- shorts and a t-shirt--with some elevated accessories. Her choice extras: a woven past-season Prada tote (I like this current , or this one and this ), a structured straw hat (like or ), sunglasses, and embellished slides. An easy everyday look to emulate!
