Vest: c/o Cigi Guz. Tank: Gap. Shorts: Jessica Simpson (old), here's a similar pair.  Purse: CoachShoes: Loft (old), here's a pair. Sunglasses: Ray-Ban. Necklace: KK Bloom Boutique.  Bracelets: J. Crew, Stella & Dot, vintage. Rings: Melinda Maria, TiffanyDiamonds Direct

This outfit is a pretty dead-on representation for my everyday street style look.  You may recall seeing the gold beaded vest from this recent post, paired with my green harem pants from Woman Shops World.  I so adore this vest belonging to budding designer Cigi Guz that I had to wear it again, this time more casually with my trusty denim shorts.  I also love this vintage Coach cross body bag that belonged to my mother.  If you look closely in the above picture, you can see an ink stain on the under body of the bag; certainly nothing to deter me from a Coach classic.

For the love of recycled style, never out of style...
Thank you so much for reading!  Whitley
