That definitely doesn’t mean boring, it just means that elevated simplicity is more my thing. Take today’s look.
The fluid wide-leg pant paired with a sweetly seductive lingerie-style top takes these better-than-basics to the next level.
I love the juxtaposition between the fun and fiery red pant and the floaty floral camisole top.
And speaking of the top. The lingerie-style top is one of my favorite warm weather styles. It’s choosing what I’ll wear underneath this style that’s the hassle for me. I’ve never liked strapless bras. They slip and slide and eventually end up falling down to my waist. I’m forever pulling them up, which makes me crazy.
No one wants to be distracted by uncomfortable undergarments, so for this particular shoot I ditched the bra altogether. I know, not an option for everyone, but it definitely works for me. It certainly added to the free-spirit aesthetic of this look and makes it a perfect choice for the summer ahead.

Amazing look! Love the top and the color! I wish I could ditch my bra!
I am a huge fan of red and you wear it so well, Mary. Those red wide-leg trousers look divine on you and I just love the girly floral camisole. I may have to order it from Nordstrom. I too hate some (not all) of strapless bras lol.
Welcome by and linkup with me tomorrow. A brand-new linkup is up every Thursday. Come share your great sense of style with myself and other bloggers. Thanks, Ada. =)
Happy Hump Day!
Love this look… Fantastic…
Yes for ditching the bra! Always lovely…
Wow! Just gorgeous! The slip top is so sexy and feminine and those wide leg pants are fabulous! The color really adds to the chicness of it all. Lovely! Good for you that you are able to go braless! I would trip over my own boobs if I tried that! Plus it is not a flattering look for me. So, rock it if you can!!!

Fabulous look! I love the wide legged pants on you! Gorgeous color. And the lingerie-style top is very pretty, and looks amazing with the pants! I usually stay away from tops that make it difficult to wear a bra as I can’t ditch it…

I love this look, and I think it’s elegantly simple, just like you said. Those red pants are so fun–I love that they make a bold statement and you don’t need much else going on.
Beautiful look Mary!! I love the red wide leg trousers, and your top is so feminine and stunning!

These red wide leg pants are gorgeous and such a statement piece. Very pretty cami and it looks so comfortable and breezy. I just purchased several Barcelona camis from Express and cannot wait to wear them, however, I will have to deal with a strapless bra. :\
I love this outfit! I have some red trousers and wear them lots, they are surprisingly versatile!
