If you are following me on Instagram, you probably already know that I am currently in Amsterdam. I arrived here yesterday morning, so today is our second day in this beautiful city. It is my third time here in Amsterdam, and I am still not bored of it. 🙂 Have you ever been to Amsterdam?
Because I really wanted to enjoy this trip, I prepared two outfit posts for you guys. So today I won’t tell you more about what we are doing here in Amsterdam, and I won’t share the first outfit I was wearing here, I will share an outfit I was wearing in Berlin last week instead. And tomorrow you will get to see another outfit taken pictures of in Berlin. I hope I will have enough time to edit the first pictures from Amsterdam as soon as we are back so that I can share the first Amsterdam photos at the end of this week. Stay tuned and have a closer look at this outfit for now:
Summer Outfit: Levi’s Shorts and Off Shoulder Shirt
I was wearing this outfit at the beginning of the last week. It was such a hot summer day in Berlin, and I actually didn’t want to wear anything at all. But I had to get a lot of work done and spent most time of the day at the office, so clothes were much needed 😉 I opted for one of my Levi’s shorts – because you can never go wrong with them – and combined them with an off-shoulder shirt. Thanks to the off-shoulder shirt at least my shoulders weren’t covered, and the sleeves are very airy, so that’s a huge plus point. Wearing off-shoulder in summer generally is a good idea, as long as it is airy and comfortable.
I finalised this summer outfit by adding one of my Birkenstock sandals, my Agneel bag and, of course, my Ray Ban sunglasses. This was the best outfit combination I could have chosen that day; it is both perfect for a day at the office and a day by the water or in a park. We first planned to drive to a lake or an open-air bath after work, so that’s another reason I opted for this comfortable and airy summer outfit. In the end, we didn’t go somewhere but home after work because we were too tired and exhausted, but at least I was prepared for other plans 😉
How to Buy the Perfect Levi’s Shorts
I’ve never bought a pair of Levi’s shorts for it’s recommended retail price, I always got them at sale around 20€. That’s why I would always suggest keeping your eyes open for sales and vintage Levi’s shorts. I got mine from several online shops, so I can’t even tell where it’s best to find them for a discounted price. They can be found everywhere; you just have to keep your eyes open. And when you’ve found a pair of Levi’s shorts, don’t buy the size you usually wear. I always get them one or two sizes up, that way they will be super comfortable and not too tight on the legs. These are the two tips I wanted to share with you today. Levi’s shorts are my favourites, I don’t know how many pairs I got, but I wold buy them again and again.

Very nice outfit! These shorts suits you perfectly! I've never been to Amsterdam but it's one of my dreams which maybe will come true in the future ;)
