Satin for a new season with a loud pump and boyfriend jeans.

I have been dabbling in satin pieces for some time now– and I have to say, I’m digging the vibe. As I’ve said before: to keep satin manageable and modern, make sure the fit is oversized. Think more TLC’s Creep video and less Katy Perry in the mid-aughts. (Shopping the men’s section is a good place to start.) This satin button-up shirt is a good example of that: it’s slouchy enough to make for a nice French tuck situation and also to keep from making too many wrinkles.

Speaking of French, the shirt is a deeper version of a French blue. Not quite jewel tone, but certainly not muted. I also love the little starburst print throughout– it was cute and it helped disguise the wrinkling.

Now, with satin you have to accept some degree of wrinkling; you steam the piece before you put it on, and then you go about and live your life knowing that the satin will wrinkle. (Note: it’s always worse on camera than in real life.) I did just that with this button-up and a pair of cuffed boyfriend jeans. (Super old, but here’s the current version and here’s a more affordable version.)

Slingback blue snakeskin pumps with an illusion feature were a fun way to dress this look up. Satin feels inherently dressy; I wanted to juxtapose that with the rougher denim without losing the overall elevation of the outfit. (Kept those cuffs loose, though.) Gold chains and pretty statement earrings with a bright lip helped, too.

Shop the look:

The end result is both chic and casual, dressed up and lived-in. You have some statement pieces happening in the form of loud shoes, flashy gold accessories, and a bold satin shirt, but the outfit is built on the foundation of basic boyfriend jeans. A really good outfit for a time when the weather is warming up and you want to hit a (safe!) patio with your (hopefully vaccinated!) friends.

  3. Wonderful! As you say, satin is inherently dressy so presenting it casually works well. And your trick about wearing over-sized works equally as well; I wouldn’t have guessed that. You know so much more about fashion than the rest of us!

    1. Yes! I don’t think super tight satin is very flattering- it creates lumps where there are no lumps! Oversized makes it so wearable!

    1. Haha, I am definitely going to have to re-learn how to be in pumps for longer periods of time and not just for shoots!

    1. It does wrinkle easy- definitely didn’t seem as wrinkled live as it did on camera; totally how it always goes, right? Haha. But you’re right- it’s all worth it!

  15. You look beautiful in that blue. It’s such a great colour on you. And the sandals are fabulous with the rest of the outfit. The perfect date night look, for sure!
