Endless Summer

I know I haven't been blogging long enough for anyone reading (who doesn't know me in 'real life') to know my style, but like everyone, I have my style. It's a bit tough for me to define, but I tend to gravitate to cardigans, over-sized tops, and belts with the half tucked-in shirt. I'm all about the half-tuck. 

Lately, I've been really drawn to t-shirts with cool prints in the over-sized cuts I like. I guess it helps distinguish these shirts from the super fitted graphic tees with store names plastered on the front like I wore several years ago. 

Up until recently, nothing really fit the bill. It wasn't until last weekend when I was in the men's section of Old Navy that I saw this 'Endless Summer' tank. I think it was the colours that drew me to try it on, but once I did, I HAD TO HAVE IT. I think I'll need to check the men's section for gems more often. 







Tank: Old Navy (Men's)
Cardigan: Line (old)
Jeans: Seven For All Mankind via Sak's Off Fifth
Boots: Frye
Purse: Roots
Sunglasses: Ray-Ban

      Thank you! I find that longer sweaters are easier to come by in the colder months. The one I wore here is made of linen, but it's a couple years old. Everything comes back into style!

    Thank you for commenting on my blog! Secret confession is sometimes I buy men's printed shirts because they are more fun than the girl's ones! Excited to be following you on bloglovin now!

      Sometimes men's clothes are just more fun (on those rare occasions).

      I'm following your blog too, so I'm excited too! :)

    I love that tank! I've been on the look out for the perfect t-shirt that had some kind of screen print on the front...but I find so many of them to have sayings that don't mean anything to me...or make sense for me to wear...who woulda thought to look in the mens section!

      That's the problem that I find with printed t-shirts too! I totally missed the meaning on this too and strictly just loved the design/colours.

    great find! you know what else is a great "untapped resource" when it comes to shopping for clothes? the maternity section lol. one of my friends told me about this once, and if you buy a small enough size, they have some REALLY cute stuff sometimes!

      Hmmm....interesting. I've never thought to look in the maternity section, so I'll keep that in mind the next time I hit H&M!
