Today we are sharing our summer take on the Canadian Tuxedo. We borrow a lot from the boys and today is no exception, we like the classic silhouette of this shirt and the true relaxed attitude of a dropped shoulder that you get from a boys fit. We also love the tonal eyelet detail on the skirt, however, we think it would be just as great with a simpler denim skirt as well. We had some fun on this one changing out our laces for a longer length and wrapping them up the leg mimicking lace up sandals and flats.
