A blouse buttoned ALL the way up (super professional and conservative), and then worn untucked (messy and relaxed). A little bit of a paradox, but I like it. It’s different and unexpected, but still conservative and “DO-able” without getting too many strange looks – a nice balance of edgy. I’m OBSESSED with the contrasting, bright orange collar and the royal blue cuffs – so simple, yet SO cute and chic.

This look is easier than easy and cooler than cool. (ha! I say this humbly, I promise) What I mean is that you can totally do this, but just make sure you wear your hair up and/or kind of messy – it completes “the look”.
