Pairing separates in a way that flows well can be tricky. Having a few cropped button downs and blazers helps this issue immensely.
The length of this button down hits right at the top of my pant’s waist line so they pair nicely with jeans and I don’t have to fuss with trying to tuck it in.
Then I layered a blazer for extra structure (+ a blazer is immediately slimming because it only exposes a smaller portion of the center of your waist).
I paired with a wide legged full length jean — I am loving the more dramatic look of a longer jean these days. I chose a super thin strap kitten heel because this type of heel shows off the foot more which visually elongates the leg.
Then I broke up the all solid look with a printed bag and tortoise sunglasses.
