Embracing my inner Parisienne in the classic moment shown above and below. I am in love with the cropped jacket and the skort situation — so comfortable and practical. I was thinking these pieces would be great components of a travel or capsule wardrobe, as they can be remixed so many different ways. The skort with a white tank and black strappy sandals for casual tourism, or with the jacket and flats on a chillier day, or paired with a matching white blazer and heels for a dressed-up moment; the jacket over a dress; the tee with jeans; etc. Sizing notes: the jacket runs a tad snug, I think. I took a 0 and it fits like a petite 0 in my opinion — the arms and length are perfect for me (I’m 5’0). The jacket comes with shoulder pads that I think you could cut out but I actually like the structure they offer. I’m normally a shoulder pad hater, but these make proportional sense. I took the skort in a 0 (my true size) and say it runs just shy of TTS — if between sizes, you might size up. I think a slightly looser fit in these would be welcome so the front doesn’t pull at all. I adore them!
The tee is by Z Supply, but currently in low stock — you might try this one or this one for a similar look — and the glasses are my tried-and-true Le Specs.
