not so plain.

via Kendie Everyday

In continuing along with this week’s plain white tee challenge, I thought I’d pull some inspiration from my Pinterest boards.  When it comes to styling a white t-shirt, there really is no limit.  Dress it up or down, or add a little punchy humor.  I’ll take all of the above!

floral fun.

Round two of my plain white tee challenge takes an unexpectedly girly turn.  I mixed the t-shirt with my favorite floral skirt (I mean, it was the skirt that started it all!). Topped with a ladylike satchel, a statement necklace, and a pair of pumps, and the result is effortlessly feminine.  Two looks down, one to go!

T-Shirt: H&M

summer sale.

It’s no secret that I’m a bit of a J.Crew aficionado.  Their clean cuts and preppy style blends perfectly into my closet.  But I never purchase anything from J.Crew at full price or even at sale price.  About every 3-4 weeks, J.Crew marks an additional 30% off its sale prices and let me tell you, the savings are definitely worth the wait.  The 30% off sale is going on now online (just enter “SHOPNOW” at checkout) until Thursday and I’ve rounded up a few of my favorite finds from the sale (marked with the sale price and the additional 30% discounted price).  Happy shopping everybody!
