This is what I wore to work yesterday-- fairly classic and simple. I was excited to receive my striped top yesterday from LL Bean [not a place I usually shop, mind you]. I have probably purchased 3 or 4 similar tops in the past two years alone, because I clearly have an obsession with French nautical stripes, and I am always on the lookout for the perfect one. I decided to buy this one because it is made of a thick-knit, high quality cotton [and also because I got chocolate on my favorite one...grrrrr]. Do you have a certain clothing item or accessory that you find yourself buying over and over again??
I have also been bringing out my Levi's light-wash denim jacket for a few weeks now -- thank goodness I kept it from...ahem...the early 90's.

Ooo I love this outfit! Very A.P.C. The cut of your trousers is so unique- they look perfect for warm weather!
Oh love that little jacket. The nautical look is *always* a go-to for me.
Lovely outfit.
Give us the downlow on the LL Bean top -- how's the fit? Does it run a little big, a tad small? Inquiring minds want to know!
my special stash -- I wish it were APC! Thanks!!
ambika -- I know, it just never gets old.
la mode -- thanks so much, and thanks for visiting my blog!
lily -- it fits slightly loose, but not oversized, just comfortable. I bought a medium, and I typically wear an 8 [sometimes a 10]. It is definitely not "slouchy" though because of the material -- it is a thicker woven cotton. It is nice!
keep thinking about the menu before as I'll be there in few minutes...
Thanks for the report on the llbean. I've got an Isaac Mizrahi for Target one that is going to have to be replaced soon.
Tell me about, I LOVE stripes. Your outfit is superb, very chic with the vintage scarf.

i think your stripes are my polka dots! i'm wearing my black with white polka dots cocktail dress with a black v-neck tee over it. two of my buy-over-and-over-again items.
