Details: Reverse jeans | Urban Outfitters pullover | (gifted) Vaalbara clutch | Steve Madden heels

TGIF and cozier than ever – yes, even in these heels. What I love most about this particular ensemble is the ability to make frump look chic, all by adding a little height. With an oversized top or even loose pants/trousers, partnering up with a tighter opposite garment can allow you to get away with it. I, for one, hate wearing constricting pieces in a match set – so why shouldn’t I be able to wear a sweatshirt that I can take a nap in AND wear out for fun?

Yes, I caved into the thigh-ripped jeans and indeed, they are white. Summer may be over but my love affair for white and all things in that hue will never die. I will say when a breeze picks up, you can definitely feel it. All the more reason to make use of them now before my legs freeze off in October. Also, I CANNOT get enough of this clutch. My good friends at Vaalbara surely know what makes a girl happy and this will become my fall staple without question. Shop similar below:
