Found this Michael Stars Tee shirt with a tie hem in July's issue of InStyle and thought it would be perfect to style up or down.  Casual white crop jeans and cute sandals make this outfit perfect to run errands, pick up your kids from summer camp, and/or grocery shop.  
The Sole Society gray "pamelina" sandal is perfect for date night, or a night out with the girls.  Style it will a pair of boyfriend jeans and a funky necklace and statement watch and you are ready to go out. 
What do you think, which style would you prefer to rock with this fun Tee??

Anchor Necklace

Anchor Necklace by fitfashlife featuring bracelet watches

Aéropostale chambray shirt / Mossimo distressed jean shorts / Charles Philip Shanghai loafer shoes, $74 / Tory Burch handbag / Jules Smith anchor jewelry / Kate Spade bracelet watch

I found this anchor necklace on shopbop.  I'm really feeling the nautical trend that's hot right now.  Just in time for summer.  This is a great outfit to shuttle the kids to camp, soccer two-a-days, or BBQ'n with friends.  

Are you into the nautical trend or are you gonna pass on it?

Found this jumpsuit at zara.com and its supercute and great price at $70.  I styled it two ways, one for work and then you can totally dress this down for the weekend.  Throw on your pearls and you are work appropriate.  I added some funk with the leopard belt.  Some sandals and loving this anchor necklace for the weekend.  
How would you style this jumpsuit??

Mens: Travel Days

Mens: Travel Days by fitfashlife featuring a fleece hoodie

Fleece hoodie / Citizen Watch, Men's Two Tone Stainless Steel Bracelet 38mm Bk2284-54h / Zara Combination Nylon Weekender / Sperry Top-Sider® 'Authentic Original - Pop Neon' Boat Shoe / Gap Linen Patch Pocket Plaid Shirt / Gap Ripstop Cargo Shorts

As part of my last few posts, I decided to put the boat shoes and men's weekender bag together for a travel day post.  Traveling this summer shouldn't be about sweatpants and t-shirts.  Guys can still look put together while on a plane, on a ferry, in a car, (you get the point).  Side note:  You want to go easy and classic on the accessories when you have a pop of color shoe.  So, I picked this classic silver Citizen watch for this outfit. 
Safe travels to all this summer! 
 
What do you think, would you guys wear a pop of color or not brave enough??

Mens: Weekender Bag

Zara Leather Bowling Bag / Zara Combination Bowling Bag / Zara Rubber Weekend Bag / Zara Combination Nylon Weekender / Zara Bowling Bag With Blue Stripes

There comes a point in time when a guy can NOT rock a backpack while traveling.  I would say about 30yrs old.  At this time... you need to step it up and get something a little more sophisticated and age appropriate.  I found a bunch of nice ones at Zara and they range from $90 to $300 depending on your budget.  If you are just going away for the weekend and don't need your piece of luggage that rolls, and is huge, this is the perfect option to get.  This is a good investment piece that you will have for a long time and shows that you are more put together than the next guy. 

Which is your favorite??

Mens: BBQin

Steve Madden / Gap Lived In Wash Checkered Shirt / Gap Ripstop Cargo Shorts / John Varvatos Star USA 'Schooner' Boat Shoe / AX Armani Exchange Round Bracelet Watch

As part of yesterday's post about Mens: boat shoes, I decided to put together an outfit with my favorite pair for hubby.  Gap really has some great things for guys right now.  I already bought these shorts for hubby's bday and he's been wearing them constantly.  This button up is perfect for summer, roll up the sleeves and it's a nice light material. A pair of aviators and a nice watch and you are ready to man the BBQ and play a round of Baggo with a beer in hand.

With the Nordstrom Half annual sale going on, I started to browse the Men's section for hubby.  When we were in The Cape, boat shoes were all the craze!  EVERYONE was wearing them, men, women, even kids.  I really started to like the look of them for spring/summer.  These are all from Nordy's and range from $85 to $200 depending on what your budget is.  My favorites are the red and navy Sperry Top-sider and the grey John Varvatos'.  I def see one of these pairs in hubby's future!
