As a kid, I remember my mom’s silk blouse. It was the essence of femininity and the fancy piece she afforded herself in an otherwise simple wardrobe. With flowy sleeves and pearlized buttons, she only wore it for the most special of occasions. Whether it was date nights or weddings, this piece made it’s appearance when mom needed a break from being mom and wanted to express beauty unlike any other. As I aged, I learned that silk processing has come a long way from the blouse that once lived in my mom’s closet. A perfect basic for ripped skinnies, a flowy tank for date nights, or a summer dress paired with a simple sandal. Silk has stayed premium and luxurious, while more accessible to the public. Today we’re teaming up with our friends at Grana as we style our favorite silk dress for the spring.

When it comes to summer we love to keep looks simple, classic, and put together. This piece does it well with well thought out editorial basics. With the touches of gold in our favorite minimal gold jewelry, a lace up sandal, and nude lip, this look is perfect for summer and can be elevated for the office or a bit more laid back for a bonfire by the lake. (Around here, our day can span both pretty easily.)
