I sometimes wish I could be one of those girls who manage to look completely “done.” I honestly have so much admiration for these types of ladies who look impeccably pulled together from head to toe – total Olivia Palermo types with everything from their coif to their pedicures attended to. Unfortunately, that will never be me – particularly in the summer! But at the end of the day, roughening up something like this stunning, femme 424 Fifth ballroom skirt with disheveled wavy hair (fresh from the beach!), a relatively makeup-free face and classic men’s sunnies stolen from the boyfriend makes the outfit feel more “me,” and consequently, more comfortable – what I always aim for when it comes to my style.

It’s these little quirks and details (even if it’s the omission of grooming or embellishing) that make what could be a totally classic look uniquely yours. Looking for more inspo? See the lovely Fash n Chips – the beautiful Christine has been committed to her style for years and I always love seeing the little tweaks she brings to her timeless style.
In other news, had such a great time shooting with my girls Lily, Ainsley and Jasmine yesterday – so excited to bring some guest-of-wedding style inspo to you soon! In the meantime, you can check out some behind the scenes snaps on Instagram!

    I'm a fan of the rolled-out-of-bed, tousled hair look as well. =) Great paired with the classic outfit!

    I think the tousled, effortless look is always more attractive than a perfected look! Plus, your beachy hair helps to make your ballroom skirt look more casual. Amazing look!

    That little striped bralette is adorable, dear Alex…and I think it gives your midi-skirt more of a "beach" vibe than even the undone hair does!!

    i think you always look polished! and totally stunning in every outfit. I love that you have beach waved hair, it always seems more real life and attainable!
