FRĒDA'S ELODIE Crescent Bag
Our new ELODIE bag is so soft and lightweight, making it a dream travel bag. You can wear it handsfree as a sling, or casually/comfortably thrown over your shoulder. The bone calf is so beautiful, so it elevates everything while being neutral enough to be my one and only bag.
The most comfortable sandal ever. The suede and padded footbed is so soft I can wear these like sneakers for all day exploring. Because of the neutral color and studs they work with and elevate everything day-to-night. They are a fun statement that add the extra I always want.
I love this suitcase so much. The clay color way is beautiful, which makes me feel put together running through the airport and moving from place to place. There's an external pocket for my lap top and charging station for my phone, so I no longer have to carry my Patagonia backpack (lol Cris I know you will miss this when we travel!) It will take some planning, but for a carry on it's definitely big enough for 10 days away!
Lightweight silk track pants with a lace overlay detail on the side seam. With a vintage tee or crochet button up they will be a day look and with a silk camisole and light jacket they are perfect for night.
It's important to me that these are Bermuda style, loose, baggy and long. I can wear them casually during the day, but with my blazer it feels like a more elevated set.
I can dress this down by putting a baby tee under for the day and then dress it up at night by wearing it bare with something to throw over my shoulders.
I love this dress because it's a blank canvas but so interesting and cool with the flower straps. Very versatile day-to-night, especially when nights are in more casual seaside fishing towns
I love the boxer trend. Its nostalgic and I think it's pretty cute. I like the more refined buttons on this Donni version and I like that these are black, because for such a casual short, the color/buttons adds polish and I love the conflict/balance there.
Gah, I love pointelle. This shirt is beautiful and just like The Great embroidered one, even though it's a plain white tee, the texture makes it an interesting layer, not a boring layer.
I love this shirt because it's all the things to me. It feels beachy because of the material, colors and textures...it also feels dressy and polished when styled as such. It's a bold/beautiful layer that would make me happy to wear. An outfit maker.
Love the track suit trend happening and this one looks cute with the red stripes. Majority is subtle/neutral, so I appreciate the color pop and what that adds to my outfit.
I guess I have a thing for un-plain, white basics! A white button down is so versatile and I like this one because of the big lace pattern. It's beautiful, airy, and even though it functions like a basic, it's far from.
