hi everyone good morning good afternoon good evening whatever time this is reaching you if you are live it is


0:14

10 a.m and a chilly day in minnesota gosh memorial weekend can you believe it


0:21

i mean it is this weekend i still think it's like may 1st but


0:27

the reality is summer is upon us and it is time to start thinking about what you


0:34

need for that summer wardrobe you know i'm a huge fan of a capsule


0:40

wardrobe those pieces you can mix and match it especially i'm guessing is


0:45

going to come in handy this summer we were actually just talking here at the studio before i hopped on about all the


0:51

summer travels that everyone has planned i bet you are taking trips too so all the better to have a castle


0:58

wardrobe just to put it all together and figure out what you can mix and match throw on that suitcase or just put


1:04

on on any old tuesday to make it happen so we're going to start with what i'm


1:10

wearing and then we're going to break down some other pieces so i am a huge fan of a great relaxed button down now


1:17

what's great about this silhouette is that it's a dress-up dress down and you can wear it so many ways now a fun twist


1:23

i would say for summer is you can do it sleeveless now i grabbed this because i


1:29

think it's a little unexpected this is from velvet what i think is really fun about this blouse is that it has a


1:35

little bit of a gathering at the arms you get just a slight touch of feminine


1:40

detail it is a linen so it's a relaxed fit and body and it's actually a little bit shorter now i tucked it in


1:47

because you know me i'm always looking for ways to lengthen those legs but it's


1:53

not a very long length this is an easy one to wear out as well throw it out


1:58

with a pair of cutoffs put it on with a pair of jeans and you're good to go you can also dress it up with a pair of


2:04

white denim and wear it out at night now let's talk about the jeans that i'm wearing you need a great pair of jeans


2:10

and if you're going to lean into a great pair of jeans make it a boot


2:15

or a wide leg this is going to be your most versatile jean you have in your closet this summer


2:21

it's great as i mentioned earlier and this is going to be kind of the theme of today for dressing up or dressing down


2:28

they feel like a million bucks and especially if they have stretched now this is the citizens of humanity isola


2:34

now this jean has been flying we had it in a lighter wash now


2:39

we have it in this awesome medium wash with a raw hem it is a boot more of an


2:46

ankle length so much stretch in this puppy and a


2:51

little bit higher rise but as comfortable as you can imagine so an


2:56

easy easy one just to put on without giving it any thought and the best part about this jean is that it retains its


3:03

shape then i popped on a neutral slide absolutely something you need in your


3:09

closet these are from tiki so let me tell you this brand i think when it first came into the market everyone was


3:15

like oh it's my beach slide it's my pool slide but they have absolutely upped their game i love this double strap


3:22

sandal it's really comfy and it's great because when you go with something more neutral it really just kind of


3:29

disappears and lets the rest of the look do the talking so let's talk about the


3:35

woven shirt and what you need lots of variations in this kind of camp shirt silhouette


3:40

i'm going to start with solids and i'm going to give you a couple unexpected pieces more towards the end


3:46

so first piece this is from cloth and stone what's fun about this guy is that if you are not a tucker this does the


3:53

waist accentuating for you so great tie here a little bit of a shorter length


3:59

not cropped this is not cropped it's still going to hit you a little bit below your waist but i love


4:04

that it has this tie in the front just to give you some nice shape now this is more of a cream it is a little bit of a


4:11

linen no it doesn't need to be perfectly pressed that's one of the things i'm loving about this summer is it is about


4:18

ease and breeze and comfort so we're not looking for that perfect perfect pressed


4:24

look speaking of another great cloth and stone piece if you want to catch my stories on saturday you'll see me


4:31

wearing it there this is so beautiful it's really like a sandy


4:37

kind of blush so very very flattering more of a camp shirt a relaxed fit so typically in


4:43

clapping stone button downs i like to go down a size this one i found it my true


4:49

size worked beautifully because it is by nature kind of more relaxed looks great with white i also


4:56

just love it with denim very very chic easy one to just pop on and can you


5:02

think of anything better than an already rolled sleeve so you don't have to fuss and mess with that thank you love that


5:09

okay twist what if you are a t-shirt gal i know there's so many of you out there


5:15

who just live in knits and the idea of wearing a woven top no thank you you'll


5:20

pass guess what i have a button down for you this is from goldie they are such a fun brand


5:27

now you might have remembered some of our goldy pieces from earlier this year we had some yummy yummy long-sleeve teas


5:34

a great ringer tea that i loved well check out this silhouette it is taking your camp shirt and putting it in a knit


5:42

so really fun it's a slub knit again you'll see this is a little bit more of a


5:47

relaxed fit meant to be that way not too long on this one so this is also a


5:53

really easy one just to pop on and leave out or you can do a full tuck i love


5:59

that this feels like a t-shirt looks like a blouse so you can really elevate this guy and play with


6:04

it and last but not least if you caught jamie with our new arrivals on monday


6:11

you might have caught her in this amazing blouse from citizens of humanity a couple of things that i think are


6:17

really special about this number one the stripe now i like adding a little bit maybe a print and pattern into my


6:24

capsule wardrobe just to mix it up a little bit but if it becomes too much of a statement piece


6:30

it's hard to wear over and over again i think stripes make that really really


6:35

easy right because they're kind of a neutral print not a lot of fuss and mess with this guy


6:41

looks great with denim looks great with white what's also really fun about this is this great pleating right here on


6:48

kind of that shoulder adds a touch of feminine detail much the way this blouse


6:54

does with the sleeve just a little bit to really soften it up gives a great


6:59

great finish to it of course you can pop the color or you can wear it down your choice in a little bit more of a relaxed


7:05

body can we also call it a really amazing make detail on this covered


7:10

buttons how fun is that i love it when a button kind of just disappears on a shirt and this guy not only disappears


7:17

it like blends right in so fun and this great match collar so really chic really fun piece here and


7:24

it's in this yummy yummy double face cotton which is literally like wearing your most


7:30

comfortable t-shirt you've washed nine thousand times it almost feels like you're in like your cozy bed in this one


7:36

it's so nice so one of my faves there okay what if it's hot


7:42

there's hot days they're coming we haven't really seen them yet here in minneapolis but i know they're out there


7:47

somewhere i was just in california last weekend and it was hot there let me tell you


7:52

so for those warmer days a great tank is such a staple to have in your closet and


7:59

i'm not necessarily talking about the layering tank i'm talking about a tank that can stand on its own so something


8:05

you want to pair back to denim something that you want to pop on maybe with a pair of cutoffs you're wearing this up


8:11

at the lake over the weekend or for a fun trip that you're taking you can wear it underneath the jacket so


8:17

lots of ways to style this but i'm always looking for that piece is just maybe one notch up from my core tank


8:23

that i used to layer so starting with this fabulous tank from michael stars


8:28

what i think makes this guy great is it is more of a henley silhouette so this


8:34

is called the luna wanted to make sure i got that right in this yummy yummy green with this


8:39

actual heather gray stripe which is so fun and fresh you can see that this really does act as a neutral same as my


8:46

shirt that i'm wearing now runs true to size you know this fabric it is the same fabric as our nolah tank


8:54

as our one shoulder tank as our maya as our dresses so it's that fabric that hugs you but doesn't squeeze you so it


9:01

skims the body really flattering it comes in this great stripe as well as


9:07

your classic white and of course your black i absolutely think you could dress


9:12

this guy up too in your white or your black with a great pair of jeans and then a fun little like


9:19

stacked sandal throw on some gold jewelry like the chain i'm wearing today which i think is like the perfect


9:25

finishing piece and you're done for a night out or throw it on with a pair of cutters and you're like knocking around the cabin so


9:32

lots of ways to style this guy a really fun one and it's a you know great price because you're gonna wear it so so much


9:39

i this one might be a temptation one to buy more than one coloring because it's so good


9:45

now a different way to go with tanks and a fun trend that we're seeing this summer is the sweater tank now i've


9:51

heard from a few of you and i'd like to know if you're out there that this one's kind of a stumper for you


9:57

is it are you supposed to wear it when it's warm are you supposed to wear it when it's cold like what is the occasion


10:02

you put a sweater tank on and here's my answer you wear it just like you'd wear a tank it is just a fun new way to kind


10:10

of style your top now what's great about sweater tanks now is that they are really light weight so they're not heavy


10:18

they're not going to weigh you down you're not going to get hot on it it's not meant to be a heavy layer it's supposed to function just like your


10:24

normal tank would so really fun one i wanted to talk about first this has been a best seller here at every this is i


10:31

want to give you the name of it so don't forget the mave cable tank now this is exclusively at every


10:38

so pretty you might have seen this in our may catalog we styled it with no surprise a pair of flare denim


10:47

so chic on now what i love about this guy is you can kind of go two ways of the color you can go with this great


10:52

kind of denim navel blue or my personal favorite you can go with a


10:58

yummy yummy neutral don't let the cable trick you this is a cotton sweater so


11:04

super super light really fun to wear love this double v because it's so


11:10

flattering and then you've got that great back and yes you can wear your normal brow with


11:16

this which makes it all the more delightful another really fun tank and i think this


11:22

one's great because it kind of gives a little going out vibe i can see this guy maybe


11:27

with the paris heels so fun but also i love the silhouette because it's really forgiving that nice


11:33

swing body so nice open stitch here rounded neckline this is also from every


11:40

still high enough on the under the arm now this has been one of my beefs i've noticed this is happening out there


11:46

right is you're seeing that these arm kind of holes are coming way down showing your bra i don't want that i


11:52

don't need that let me wear my normal bra with this so this definitely comes up high enough that you can wear your normal bra you


11:59

can wear eraser back with this guy or you can wear a strapless i love the fact that it's open so easy one to kind of


12:06

pop on with a pair of either i like this with a long flare or a cropped wide leg


12:12

would be really really cute and then a flat little sandal the neckline of this is really dramatic


12:18

in statement making so you don't need a lot of jewelry to really turn up the volume on this guy so cute
