Sometimes I get in my head (ok…all the time actually but that’s beside the point) about posting just simple, causal outfits on here. AKA the things I actually love to wear. I think that after blogging for 15+ years I compare how I *used* to dress for the blog as compared to now which is just how I dress. This outfit is a repeat offender because I love this top and I recently found these shorts in my closet and I have ZERO recollection of buying them. (No recollection of petty theft either, just to be clear.) Pairing it with this little raffia bag that has become my whole summer personality just feels so perfectly summery. I just love this look and I felt good in this look. So is it the most styled outfit ever? No, but it is something I would co-sign again and again. A good pair of denim shorts and a pretty blouse will always be my go-to for summer.
So I want this blouse to be on sale so bad but alas it is not. I got the notification that Madewell is having their summer sale and sadly this isn’t included. But I’ll keep an eye out because that’s what I do! So for now it is full priced and you can find it here. I’m in the medium and it’s a nice boxy fit. It IS see-thru at the eyelet holes so keep that in mind. But also v breezy so perfect for summer.
You can find this top here or find the cotton version here for half the price!
These Agolde denim shorts will always be something I push onto you, bless your hearts. I love Agolde denim but their shorts are my very favorites. 100% cotton, fit is true-ish to size (I typically take a 30 in Agolde, 29 if and only if there is stretch.) I have purchased so many pairs of Agolde shorts (and in turn, resold them in my pre-loved shop) over the years but the Parker is my very favorite. That is this pair here. I find them to be the right length for me and they LAST forever. I just listed a pair I got back in 2020 and they still look good as new.
You can find my Agolde shorts here!
This pair from Madewell IS on sale and a VERY similar look as well. I haven’t had much luck with Madewell denim recently but with my experience, I’d say go up one size if you have a wider waist. With the sale they end up being $35, so that’s a steal! Find them here.

It’s great to be so honest about your everyday style — sometimes the simple, comfortable, and “very personal” outfits are Monkey Mart the ones that make us feel the most confident and cute!
