WIW: Summer Uniform

Style Fan

Veteran

My excitement for the week was taking the car in to have the snow tires removed. I think it is safe to say that winter is over here.
I have a uniform, which is fine. I am happy with it. I knew Angie had posted an ensemble similar to this at one time, and I found it.

Denim Jacket - Mavi - late 1990s
T-Shirt - Roots - 2006 - it is my favourite tee
Pants - Sanctuary - June 2020
Sandals - Birks - 2019

That's a great summer uniform. What a mix of favourite older pieces with new ones.

Birkenstocks are on my list for next summer - I haven't had a pair for about four years and feel ready to get some back again.

Excellent uniform. I had forgotten snow tires even exist - left snow 23 years ago and do not miss it!

Love it. Right up my alley. Your outfit reminded me how much I've missed having Birkenstocks. I just ordered a new pair of Arizonas!

This is a beautiful look and a perfect uniform. You have such a great sense of what works for you, how great that your classic denim jacket is from the 1990’s and looks current and in great condition more than 20 years later.

Looking fabulous! My uniform is similar, and I also mix old and new, and sometimes home grown vintage

Oooh I love this on you! I have a denim jacket and chinos in my holding zone - you've inspired me to give them a shot.

Love the new pants, and the Mavi jacket which is timeless. My favorite jeans right now are an old pair of Mavis.

That is a great summer uniform - very relaxed and pulled together. I love seeing older pieces getting in the rotation.

I love your uniform! I would wear the same thing if I had it, and if it were warm enough for my toes to come out. I'm wearing sneakers as part of my summer uniform, for the moment. I really like your graphic tee; it must be just the right fabric and fit, too, to be your favorite.

YOU LOOK KILLER FABULOUS. You wear your trendy classic look with verve, ease and panache

You are all so kind! The people at the car dealer working on my car probably didn't realize what I was wearing.
Sorry, I am not responding to everyone personally, but I am having a terrible day with allergies. The pollen in the air is in full force. My eyes are driving me nuts.
Firecracker, the Roots tee, is the softest cotton and is cut perfectly for me. I love the graphic. It is of a deer. Also, it brings back a lot of memories of my dear dog, Tasha. I bought the tee when I was taking care of Tasha during her last days. I wore it a lot that summer.

Outfit looks perfect for you!

Polished and classic. I can’t believe the denim jacket it that old. I swear , they just never go out of style ! YLF!

I wish we didn't need snow tires! Or 4 wheel drive!

I have a new denim jacket on my shopping list. I may get a new one this weekend.
Thank you, everyone! I will be sad to say good-bye to my Roots tee. I probably should stop wearing it so much.

This is an excellent summer uniform - polished and relaxed. Lovely!

Laughing at your snow tires comments ... I washed the snow jackets the other day and I'm not kidding when I say I thought for sure we'd have freak June snow the next day, just to punish me

Thank you, TG. I know exactly what you mean about being punished by the snow gods. That is why I wait until June to prepare for the summer.
