Things I bought, things I want

A perky little lightweight cashmere sweater polo that comes in a number of good colors, though this green is my fave.

This ridiculously adorable crochet cotton dress could work as a beach cover-up, or on the street layered over a silk slip.

I dig the shape of this utility trouser from Frame Denim, and I’m also quite taken with this carpenter jean, which has a nice amount of stretch.

I found this pretty and versatile satin slipdress from Vince marked way down.

L’Agence makes this reliably good three quarter sleeve silk shirt in many colors, but I’m partial to this subtle champagne gold.

This embroidered shirt has a cool, tuxedo-y vibe.

How cute is this slouchy striped tee, especially with these matching shorts?

As you all probably know by now, I brake for shirt dresses (especially this time of year) and this striped one is just stellar.

Nobody could be more surprised than me that I’m suddenly liking ruffly tops: this one, from Madewell, is so feminine and elegant.

Also from Madewell and also kind of ruffly: an easy cotton popover with subtle tonal stripes.

This eyelet stand collar blouse is such an easy summer piece.

And finally, a cotton shirt with a really fun print for not a lot of cash.
