A Wardrobe Staple: The Long Sleeve Tee

{ Via: Sold Out New York }

I think we all want to hang unto summer as long as we can. But here in The Hudson Valley, we have needed long sleeves all week.  With one month to go until fall is official, these shirts can be worn now and layered for the next season.  Though these are wardrobe staples, each one offers something special like, fabric content, color, pattern, or details like covered buttons.

The Perfect Tee

Designed with a classic cut and crew neck on 100% Organic Peruvian cotton. Also available in black and navy. You don't see navy often! $98

Added to this mix because of the very chic color. It's called Plum Purple. The fabric is stretchy for comfort and a close fit. $80

Wedding Wednesday: Bridal Lingerie & Little Lovelies

I remember, back in the day, carefully selecting lingerie for my wedding and honeymoon. It was all of the utmost importance to me. In doing so, what I wore under my gown was perfect and beautiful. In fact, I still have those ivory silk undies with a touch of something blue. It was so much fun to have fresh "everything" for the honeymoon. So my challenge today was to pick some pretties for the modern bride, and a few little lovelies that will make her smile.
