LACOSTE AND LINEN

I’M NOT THE BIGGEST FAN OF LACOSTE. I DON’T KNOW IF ITS BECAUSE POLOS AS EVERYDAY WEAR FREAK ME OUT OR THAT I JUST DON’T HAVE MUCH OF THAT PREPPY SPIRIT AS FAR AS MY FASHION IS CONCERNED. WHATEVER IT MAY BE, I HAD TO MAKE AN EXCEPTION FOR THIS LACOSTE SWEATER, AS I CAME ACROSS IT IN A GOODWILL. I HAD SO MANY VISIONS FOR IT. I DREAMT OF THIS GORGEOUS PIECE PAIRED WITH A FABULOUS PAIRED OF RIPPED, TATTERED AND TORN HIGH-WAISTED BOYFRIEND JEANS OR WITH THE PERFECT PAIR OF SATIN JOGGERS. IT’S JUST THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF PREPPY MEETS VINTAGE FOR IT TO BE A GOOD ADDITION TO MY CLOSET; IT ISN’T ONE OF THOSE ITEMS I “NEED” THAT ENDS UP SITTING THERE COLLECTING DUST. RATHER THAN JEANS OR JOGGERS, I PAIRED THIS LITTLE, CREAM SWEATER WITH A PINK, LINEN DRAWSTRING SKIRT AND MY GO-TO BIRKENSTOCKS. IT’S WARM HERE IN SUNNY SOUTHER CALIFORNIA, BUT THE SWEATER IS CROPPED AND LINEN LIGHT KEEPING ME COOL ON THIS GORGEOUS, BLUE-SKIES ONLY DAY.
