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

The Jada Cotton Tee

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

A long sleeve organic cotton Tee Shirt that's different from the rest. I love the three covered buttons on each sleeve. The Rama print is perfect for denim.

Sleeves For Summer

Via: Banana Republic  

After a warm winter here in the Hudson Valley, we are getting hit with a hot and humid summer. What's a girl to do when she isn't comfortable going sleeveless?  I am asking for a friend, as they say. I mean, we all can't have Michelle O'Bama arms from her White House Days. Here's some stylish solutions for staying cool, chic, and covered.

Cruz Linen Maxi Shirtdress

Most maxi's are sleeveless, and few are short sleeved. But it all works in this style. The linen and side slits will keep you cool.

Banana Republic

Crochet Beach Sweater

Consider this your air conditioned summer sweater. Forget the crochet midi skirt, though it's fun, few of us have the nerve to wear it. This all cotton crochet sweater can be worn with so many other things. If you click the link or the photo to suggested ways to  wear it. 

J. Crew

The Blossom Tee

If you are going to wear a tee shirt, make it memorable. These balloon sleeves are everything. It's a stylish shirt that comes in seven shades. Less than $70, and all cotton.

Free People

Maeve Linen Shirt Dress

Made with responsible linen, something we should all appreciate. It's an easy breezy look that you could wear anywhere. Under $200.

Anthropologie

Yana Tuxedo Jacket

Perfect to pair with any sleeveless dress or top. On sale now at...

Reiss

Sequin Kirsten Gown

Just add sequins. Almost sold out everywhere except at Halston. I can see why. If you want to make a summer statement at your next soiree, this sparkling dress gets it done. The mesh sleeves camoflauge anything you don't want noticed on your arms.

Halston

The Miranda Top

I have brought this top to you before, but it is so good, that it bears repeating. I am shocked to see that this is not cotton. It looks like polished cotton, and it is not hot at all. The top stays put, and is available in four colors. I own the black and white styles. Under $100. 

Tuckernuck.

Ba & Sh Missouri Top

Add some cut-outs. A beautiful boxy blouse will be flattering on most of us.

Shopbop

Light Weight Jumpsuit

This is fun. And while you are covering your arms with those batwing sleeves, you show a little leg with the knee length hemline.

Natori

Cult Gaia Simona Dress

Puff it up! Lovely in a linen blend. The sleeves are everything! Now on sale with an extra 20% off through tonight.

Saks Fifth Avenue

The Bow Back Tee Shirt

The ultimate business in front and party in the back look. Made from organic cotton, available in three colors, and under $50

Cos

The Eyelet Lettie Top

Just add a little. Sometimes all you need is just a little coverage to make you feel more confident. These ruffle sleeves are pretty and practical. Crafted in 100% cotton, and it's 1000% beautiful. 

Hill House Home

Anne Fontaine Virtyl Bow Tee Top

Just add bows. My favorite designer of dressy and fun tops is Ann Fontaine. They are always feminine and sometimes sexy. This top with a sheer bodice  and beautiful bows is just so good. Wear it with anything, but above you can see how you can dress up denim with it.
