I already posted my What I Bought for Fall post but since then I’ve added a few more pieces. They are some items I posted in my Instagram Stories but since many people won’t go looking for them in my saved Shopping highlights on my bio page, I thought I should post them here as […]

I used to get too excited about wearing fall clothes and would end up sweating to death in September. I finally learned my lesson and now I try to plan better transitional outfits for warmer weather. I’ve partnered with Net-a-Porter to help you figure out what to wear early in the season with their new […]

Style vs. Fashion

08 . 26 . 23

Style vs. Fashion There seems to be something afoot in the fashion world. One of my most fashionable friends sent me a message recently lamenting that “every (fashion) influencer has the same voice and cadence today” and was annoyed when they post the same items on the same day. “Nothing is organic or cool! Literally […]

I reposted this cover from the September 2023 issue of Harper’s Bazaar France in my Instagram Stories Wednesday night and was disappointed that some followers couldn’t identify the signature blonde hair of one of France’s most famous actresses. They must not have been paying attention since I have posted her many times including just recently […]

Navy Days with ME+EM

08 . 23 . 23

A few followers asked me for navy fashions for fall and ME+EM has some great pieces right now. I chose styles that can be mixed and matched for work, travel, and going out. A lot of people have told me that they have to go back to the office this September so a navy suit […]

The days are getting shorter and the light is getting lower which means summer is almost over. While I might be shifting to wearing more neutrals instead of bright colors, I don’t plan to give up wearing white just yet. Cutout stretch-jersey midi dress Knot flat sandal Large textured-leather tote One shoulder seersucker swimsuit Lace […]

The French brand Sézane just launched a fabulous new collection of bags and shoes that make me very excited to see their full autumn collection when it’s available. Until then, here’s a few of my favorites. Nothing says fall like a burnt orange sweater. These two tone loafers would be great with white jeans or […]

As you know, I’m beyond excited for fall but I know that most fashions are too heavy to be worn right away. So I’m partnered with MATCHES to show you how to style a leather skirt from September to November so you can take it from crisp to cold weather. The best part is that […]

If you follow me on Instagram, you may have already seen some of these pieces but I thought it might be nice to put a post together of how I will wear them this fall. Since I plan to wear these pieces with things already in my closet, I tried to find similar items so […]

I reposted a meme this weekend that asked, “Before Instagram, were people always on vacation?”. It has felt like people have been away all summer but right now it’s compounded by the fact that most Europeans are on holiday for two weeks or even the whole month of August. So if you can’t beat ’em, […]

I realized that just telling you to add a pop of red to your outfits isn’t helpful without showing you how. I’ve put together five outfits from dressy to casual to give you an idea of how you can incorporate this bold hue into your wardrobe for late summer into fall. I loved the yellow […]

Color My World

08 . 09 . 23

I’m a little nervous about this post. I know it feels a bit out of left field but I like to keep you on your toes. Everyone is clamoring for fall fashions which usually means neutrals and wool fabrics but there is another theme for fall which is pastel and bright colors. You can wear […]

The reason I get so excited about fall is because it’s New York’s best season. It can still be quite hot into October though so I’ve put together an array of pieces that can be mixed and matched when it’s still warm and then can easily transition to cooler temperatures. If you aren’t into skirts, […]

The Dries Van Noten store on Quai Malaquais is one of my favorite places in Paris. I always tell people to go inside to look around even if they can’t afford anything since the flowers, fashion, and interior design is infinitely inspiring. Down the way at 9 Quai Malaquais is the equally impressive men’s store […]

There comes a point each summer when I want to burn my summer clothes. I have not reached that point yet but I am ready to start thinking about fall fashions and planning out my wardrobe. I’ve already started buying some things too so I thought I’d put together a first look post. I’m sure […]

I don’t recommend ever visiting NYC in July but August can often be quite pleasant. Not the whole month mind you. I’m sure we’ll get another oppressive heat wave at some point but the weather this week has been delightful. The light in August also starts to get lower and warmer and you can feel […]
