[bigletter]Finally there’s an appropriate term for the underpinnings of my classic style! Encouraged by breezy beach sunsets, clambakes and chilled white wine, well planned dinner parties in the garden, an affinity for upscale SUV’s and poodle mix dogs, embodied by the emotionally and physically layered women portrayed in Nancy Meyer movies, alas, #CoastalGrandmother![/bigletter]
And despite the clarity of the term one doesn’t have to be “coastal” or a “grandmother” to embrace the style mantra that’s perhaps the most accessible type of fashion out there! It’s perhaps one of the reasons it resonates so deeply in me, a coastal millennial; easy to layer, comfortable and forever chic. It all starts and ends with any shade of white, cream and blue.
Feeling extra? Add a stripe, throw a sweater over your shoulder, add good quality, tan leather accessories!
LOL!
Whenever I’m feeling overwhelmed by trends and not enjoying the creative process of being obsessed with fashion, I revert back to my classics. For me these staples remain white jeans, linen shorts, collared shirts and my endless collection of cream sweaters. One good pair of tan leather sandals or a preppy patterned loafer will always work with a straw bag and when I’m feeling sporty I may even add a tennis skirt! It’s a simple, clean atheistic that’s timeless and worth investing in or rotating out when the bleach stops working. Thank you Nancy Meyer’s for encapsulating the most effortless look of the century!
Now all I need is a Spanish style house in Montecito and invite to the Catalina Wine mixer.
