No matter what shirt you use, roll the sleeves and tuck it in, so it blouses. Īlternatively, if you picked up this Tencel high-low shirt from Banana Republic (now an extra 50% off), you can use it here too. I picked this one up at Nordstrom they run true to size. The drape is perfect, and they are deliciously soft and wash well. They are pricey, but if you have the budget, well worth it. This creates a long clean line, making your legs look a mile long and gives you some height. So have them tailored to cover your shoe and slightly break at the top of your foot. We have to get the length right to achieve this sort of effortless chic vibe. They have to be (1) wide legged and (2) altered to fit you body perfectly. The most important element of this entire outfit are the pants. Talbots has an incredible range of sizes, they run full but fit well once you nail down your size. If you want something similar but less full, these traditional Newport pants, also from Talbots, are an excellent alternative and on sale for under $60. They are a linen blend with a lovely drape that will mimic the look of our inspiration image. I did find these palazzo-style pants from Talbots. There are more options than lean super casual, like a linen drawstring bottom than a more formal trouser.

Currently, white pants specifically are a challenge to find. This time of year, a white bottom becomes a workhorse for me because it quickly brings a freshness to any outfit.

You may have similar pieces hanging in your closet, but before you pull them together, today is a lesson in FIT. Today for Pinterest in Real Life, I’m using an image I’ve seen on many of our readers boards. Sometimes, an outfit that looks simple actually requires more effort than you would think, especially warm weather looks because you are using fewer core pieces.
