It's only the first day of July, and already I'm feeling kind of ...
bored, style-wise. Bored with my gladiator sandals, bored with my
maxi dresses, bored with my slightly billowy tops and short-shorts (which
I probably
should not be wearing anyway), bored with the whole
carefree Grecian-hippie persona I'm projecting to the world
. I want a new look that's not floaty, easy-access sexy, but more prim-and-sophisticated summery, like Grace Kelly in
To Catch a Thief. How to achieve this? Why, with shirtdresses, of course! This blue and black
color-block style might not keep you super-cool, but it does have a crisp shape I love. There's also this classic, well-cut
black linen version, which I know I'd wear for years. And, last, kind of prissy, but in a nice way: a pink
puff-sleeved piece that I'd pair with a neat little bun,
high-heeled brown sandals, and a belt.
