I usually do not wear peplum shirts, but this particular one has exceeded my expectations. It clings to my body, outlining my shape, and stretches where I need it to. In addition to its great fit, this shirt is an olive tone—a great color that happens to be trending right now. Olive shades add enough color to an outfit while also being incredibly neutral. The other great thing about olive/cypress shades being in this summer is that the trend won't die when fall approaches because it's traditionally an autumn style.

For those who have been keeping up with my recent posts, you'll know that the Tory Burch sandals I'm wearing were on my summer wish list. While being stylish and chic, they are also fairly casual, making for a versatile sandal. Although they were painful the first few days I wore them, they are totally comfortable now that I have broken them in. And though they are a little on the pricey side, I figured I could make the sacrifice for Tory.

After years of carrying cross-body handbags, I decided it was time to switch it up with this Tory Burch Reva clutch. Sleek, black and lightweight, this handbag makes even the simplest outfit pop. 

No longer do I suffer with the burden of a long strap weighing me down on a night out. Carrying cross-body handbags can be so annoying when trying to dance or move around a tight crowd. 

And these Zara jeans give outfits a more sophisticated edge, making them casual yet refined. They hug my hips perfectly and make my butt look good—an added bonus.
