Concrete Catwalk // Cinched Chambray


Chambray just screams summer to me... add a drawstring, a paper-bag waist & an exaggerated cuff and you've pretty much got the perfect shorts in my book. 

Click through to see said shorts in action, and for the full look at what I wore to celebrate Independence Day in style...




My outfit definitely ended up being more playful than literal... no flag t-shirts here!  Just a tiny smattering of red, white & blue and a vintage top that ended up being an unintentional homage to the incredible fireworks show that we watched above the Hudson River

Quite possibly my favorite 4th of July yet. :)
