A longline shirt dress worn as a duster with stepped hem jeans.
How amazing is it that sneakers are now the shoe to wear with just about everything? When comfort meets coolâ I’m a fan. Thanks, athleisure. I’m wearing a pair of gray Nike’s with an outfit built from interesting basics. A cropped tank, pair of stepped hem skinnies (the latest jean trend; shop mine here), and a longline white shirt dress worn open. This turns the dress into a duster, which is a great styling trick. Love how the cropped tank and denim play with the longer hem of the duster. Metallic accents from statement mirrored sunglasses (last seen here) and a cool mixed metal feather necklace work well with the gray tank + sneakers.







Shop the look:
This outfit looks a bit fancyâ that’s all the duster’s doing. This is jeans and sneakers, with a twist. The bones of the look are basics. Despite the duster stealing the show, I really dig these gray sneakers. I plan on working these guys into more outfits because they’ll definitely play just as well with shorts and casual dresses as they will with yoga pants.

Ooh I like the way the duster adds such nice visual interest to the outfit, turning it from one of basics to something more. The new hem style is new to me. I haven’t seen it yet. It looks quite interesting.
