Do you have a summer go-to-outfit?
You know, the one you throw on when you’re meeting friends for lunch . . .
or just heading out for a little shopping trip . . .
or dinner date . . .
maybe it’s that summer wedding reception . . .
or even the work day or meeting. . .
But one that fits them all?
Well, my friends, this one does the job for me.
A simple casual black skirt (banana republic), a pop art tee (jcrew), simple pearls, fun flats, and, a vintage summer hat.
What have you found this season to be your go-to-outfit that fits many occassions?
AS ALWAYS MY FRIENDS, THANKS FOR DROPPING BY, HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY!
Linking up with Patti and the gals for Visible Monday.

Love your “go to” outfit! Especially those shoes! They look so comfy!
I do have many “go to” outfits; and that sometimes changes rather quickly! xoxo
trinagrandinetti says
I bet you do have many ‘go-to’ outfits just knowing your fun style. And, yes, the shoes are extrememly comfy.
Patti @ NotDeadYet Style says
The shoes, the hat! Your whole summery look is wonderful, Trina. Thanks for sharing it with Visible Monday.
trinagrandinetti says
Thank you Patti, I could use a pair of the cute shoes you are sporting right now.
woodlucker says
Crisp and cool go to outfit! I do like your style, black and white outfits are one of my favorite combinations. The flats are just adorable and your skirt looks comfortable and chic. I like the mix of a brown bag and interesting jewels. My go to outfit in the summer is mostly knit dresses, easy wear and easy to laundry.

Ann, I do love your knit dresses, and you make them look so stylish. I definitely need to find a fun knit dress to add to my collection.
Spashionista says
You’re so FIERCE! Love it all, from head to toe, and you clearly look like you own it. I’m seriously digging the way you put your outfits together – so bohemian without going into crazy hippie territory. I’d love to snatch those shoes right off of your feet!

Alicia, I would be happy to share my shoes anytime you would like to borrow them, they would look so dang cute on you. Thank you dearly for the compliments, maybe I need to surprise you one day with a crazy hipper territory (jk).

Trina, I really like this black and white ensemble, is a nice combination. The shirt and shoes are two cuties. I love the hat with white scarf. It’s a great look, you look stylish, and, at the same time casual. The skirt design is very nice, too. I like the jewelry you wear. You are magnificent.
trinagrandinetti says
Thank you, thank you. I, too, love black and white combinations, so easy to put together and look a bit classy as you do it.
Lady of Style says
Perfect, Trina! This is so chic and sophisticated.
Your shoes are amazing and your jewellery just adds to your whole look. Beautiful!

Thank you Annette, especially coming from the chic and stylish icon.
Sylvia @ 40PlusStyle says
Great outfit Trina! My go-to outfit would be white pants and a nice top although it could easily be something similar to this.
trinagrandinetti says
Syvlia, I can totally see you in this complete outfit. I do love your white pants and the many ways you style them.
Marta says
You look great,I love your blouse,shoes,really ,really great;))
trinagrandinetti says
Thank you Marta and thanks for dropping by. You have a very fun blog (from one shoe lover to another)
kathleenlisson says
You look great in black and white!
trinagrandinetti says
Thank you, Kathleen.
Suzanne says
Your top pattern is cool the way it fades out but I have to admit I prefer you in colours. They seem to match your personality better than black and white.

I totally agree with you, I am a colored gal, although at times I do try to calm things down a bit. Love that you have gotten to know me, we would make great shopping buddies. Oh, guess what I saw today while I was out shopping? Yep, that great bunny bag (I wouldn’t give it back), that thing is even cuter in person.
Kristina says
I’ve been wearing shirtdresses more than ever this summer. I love how little styling they require and always look put together.
trinagrandinetti says
Couldn’t agree more. I purchased my new denim shirt dress and I seriously find myself spending way too much time in that little item. I need to go check some of yours out, have you posted them?
Jan Graham-McMillen says
Such a “Wow!” outfit … I see why you love it and use it as go-to! It’s a simple black and white outfit, but it’s your taste in putting these particular items together that makes it rock so steadily.
Love, love, love this one.
Good gams, girl!
trinagrandinetti says
Thank you, thank you Jan!
nofearoffashion says
That’s my gal… Black and white.. Right up my street. Looking terribly good. And like the others, I would very much like to have your shoes. But, as I have a very low instep, they would not look half as nice on me. Never mind.
As my go to outfit. Unfortunately I don’t have one. Depend on the weather. But i suppose boring fitted white capri trousers and a soft white/yellow (horizontally) striped long shirt. Perhaps throw in a scarf.
trinagrandinetti says
Oh, believe me, your fitted white capri trousers are anything but boring, especially on your amazing legs.
The Style Crone says
Your vintage hat is fabulous with your black and white summer ensemble. I’m sure that you’ve turned many a head in this ‘go-to’ outfit!
