Top Topshop (another fun fav) | Shirt J.Crew | Skirt Zara  

Bag Kate Spade | Heels J.Crew (old, similar here)

Throwing a long white button down underneath just about anything makes sense in my book. To me, the trick is buying your shirts in size Tall, to get the perfect oversized-yet-fitted shirt (so long as you don't mind a longer sleeve).

Dress Tracy Reese (sample sale find!) | Shirt Anne Fontaine | Shoes JCrew | Jacket Zara

This dress is one of my favorite finds from NYC sample sale season last year - from Tracy Reese. While it has a beautiful pattern, it still feels almost like a "neutral" to me - with endless outfit possibilities. Layering is the best way to move a piece of clothing from one season to the next, and this dress has unlimited pairing potential for just about any season.
