Alexander Wang singlet, T by Alexander Wang cardigan, Isabel Marant tundra skirt, Porselli ballet flats, Cuyana tote bag (similar), Karen Walker sunglasses It seems like a bit of a misnomer, wearing all black on a picture perfect sunny day. Why cloak yourself in darkness when there’s ample opportunity to dig out all your summer clothing which has received little wear since the early months of the year, right?

Trenery stripe top (similar), ASOS ovoid stripe coat, ASOS wrap skirt, Yvonne Kone sandals (similar), Cuyana tote bag (similar), J. Crew earrings My love affair with the breton stripe continues, and it truly only was a matter of time before it surfaced in coat form.
