I'm crushing hard on two style things right now: band tees and cropped trousers. So why not try them together? The celeb example is pulling it off perfectly and served as my inspiration. My other inspiration is the reader who asked for a recommendation on a classy way to rock a graphic tee last week. I suggested wearing it with a blazer and jeans, and the cropped trousers elevates the look even more. Would you ever wear a graphic tee with a suit?

Blazer: Express, old (similar below)
Tee: Express, $38
Pants: Express, $42
Shoes: Charles David c/o (same)
Purse: Michael Kors/Macy's, $270 (similar, similar)
Approx. dates: Blazer is 10 years ago. Purse is 3 years ago. Shoes are 1 year ago. Tee and pants are new.
