Back in Khaki

I've been seeing the khaki blazer look popping up everywhere lately, especially street style sites (which means it's only a matter of time before it seeps into mainstream fashion). I especially love it in an oversized style a la Kate Bosworth & chictopia's Fashion Euphoria; it's the Summer 2010 spinoff of the infamous black boyfriend blazer.

I think I may need to invest in one for my summer internship wardrobe (only a few weeks to go)! Such an easy piece to throw on and make a simple sundress or basic tee & jeans a bit more polished.

On a side note, hope everyone is enjoying the beginning of sweet summertime!

Urban Outfitter

I've been really skeptical of the sweatpants as outerwear look, but this ELLE Italia editorial did it right! There's a fine line between looking sloppy like you just rolled out of beds and like a perfectly slouchy, causal city girl.

I think this editorial really captures the feeling of living in a city; people aren't always dressed to the nines like Carrie Bradshaw, but they have their own unique and comortable style.

How do you feel about the sweatpants & sweatshirts look making its way into fashion?
