Boho Bombshell: Alessandra Ambrosio's Floral Blouse and Ripped Denim Look for Less

Alessandra Ambrosio Look for Less
Summer may be winding down, but that doesn't mean it's over — especially when clearance sales and endless celebrity looks are inspiring me to continue wearing my favorite pairs of shorts. In this look, Alessandra Ambrosio styled a long sleeve printed top with ripped denim shorts, studded ankle strap espadrilles, delicate gold jewelry and round metal sunglasses. This look is perfect for those lingering warm days, but if you're looking to extend this look into fall or if you're already in the midst of chillier weather opt for skinny jeans. Plus, the pair I've featured has a similar style to Alessandra's so the overall feel of the look is unchanged. Shop my picks starting at just under $4!

Nicole paired a gold crewneck sweater, black frayed shorts, a navy floral scarf and flat ankle booties.
