Those of you who have followed me for a while would know that when it comes to my personal style, I love minimalism best. I’ve never shied away from playing around with prints and embellishments, but my heart still belongs to pieces with clean lines and shapes. Minimalism with a twist is something that I love in wardrobe and this pleated Jil Sander gem – available at Matchesfashion.com here, also in white and beige here and here – captures that aesthetic exactly.

It doesn’t have any obvious details, just skinny pleats and voluminous sleeves. Yet, it managed to get quite a few stares when we took this around town. It’s a statement piece for sure, but still very simple at its core. The blouse is versatile, too, but you know me, I can’t help falling back to my routine of jeans and sneakers.

The weekend isn’t here yet, but we see no reason not to begin the celebrations and self-pampering just a little bit earlier. Shop pieces from my look below, along with my top picks from the latest drop at Matchesfashion.com (we’ve got more in our Picks of The Week bar above, too). They’ve just recently launched The Style Social, a new social shopping platform that allows you to share what you’ve just bagged, see what everyone else is adding to their cart and then shop it directly, all in one place. Just tag #MATCHESFASHION on Instagram and you’re in. Find out how to join The Style Social here.
