I spotted Julia Engel of Gal Meets Glam sporting this easy denim dress ($66), and a grush (girl + crush) was born.

I’m not as cray cray about the chevron front, but that back is to die.  I love the easy breeziness of it all — perfect against a great tan while traipsing around town.  My to pick for getting the look?  This A.P.C. number ($290):

With a dress this girly, avoid any frou-frou accents and stick with some simple brown t-straps ($100) and a perforated clutch from Cleobella ($118):

Or, how about this blousy tunic top (on sale for $39) with some white cut-offs (on sale for $107 — from my fav denim line, J. Brand…duh) and a pret-ty amazing tribal necklace from Lizzie Fortunato ($710):

I’d pair with simple flips from Tkees ($48) and a worn-in leather tote from Louise Goods (the one shown below has sold out, but check out this style):

Yes m’am.  So European and well-worn.  Love.  Or, how ah-may-zing is this gradiated amber necklace ($36) with a white dolman tee ($62) and some lived-in jeans:

Finish with either easy-on flips or — now, I know I’m leaning for fall — but these incroyable leopard booties (Alaia, on sale for $700…DIE.):

And…finish with the Phillip Lim Pashli in the mini size ($650) — I mean, I just die.

Ahhhh.  Fall.  Stupid, it’s now in my head, and we’re still bajillions of years away.  Only, not really so much for me anymore — I bet I’ll be regretting this post in about three weeks, once it starts snowing up here…so let’s shift back to summer, and the airiness of this lightweight caftan ($195), layered over a taupe bikini ($23!) —

I’d add a simple necklace ($68) — but check out the entire Palomarie collection while you’re at it!  Love it all.

And, finally, a simple straw tote  ($109) stuffed with lots of pool/beach essentials (in my book, this means trashy magazines + a mimosa with a straw)…and barefeet:

Oh, and just for kicks?!  one of these chambray bras ($59) from Atelier Delphine.  Totally impractical, but…I want.
