la vie bohème.

Guys, I’m so torn. I’m not ready for summer to be over, but I’m actually excited to trade in my brights ensembles for something a little simpler (go ahead and rub this in my face in six months).  I mean, they don’t call neutrals a classic for no reason — they look and feel effortless and timelessly sophisticated.  So while I’m stuck in between seasons, I’ll be sticking with lighter layers, but reaching for more subtle shades.

We have a special guest appearance on the blog today!  Two weeks ago, the boyfriend and I took a weekend trip up to Rhode Island for my birthday.  As we strolled through the Brown University campus in Providence, I thought it would be the perfect backdrop to get him and his summer uniform out in front the camera.

We were both wearing chambray that day, making us that gross couple that wear matching clothes.  But I didn’t mind as much, because chambray is such an easy going fabric that it’s a staple for the both of us this summer.  Colored shorts and boat shoes and  voilà: he perfect outfit for another east coast adventure.  Man, guys have it so easy.

Want to see more of the boyfriend?  Slightly creepy, but click here and here and I promise I won’t judge!
