The Net-a-Porter Sale has started today and I could not be more excited. I was just about to buy the blouse above when it went on sale so I already placed my order. This sale would have normally started before Memorial Day weekend but everything is off schedule this year. But better late than never! […]

Since most of us don’t even know what day of the week it is anymore, you might have forgotten that Father’s Day is coming up on June 21st. I tried to put together a gift guide this year that takes into account our present circumstances of being at home and not traveling very far this […]

Pearls of Wisdom

06 . 03 . 20

I had originally planned a post on pearl jewelry for this week since pearls are the birthstone for the month of June. Even though my birthstone is diamond, I prefer the luminosity of pearls. The post didn’t seem as relevant after the events of this week until I came across a feature on 55 Black-Owned […]

I took an informal poll of my friends and asked them if they had any plans to wear heels any time soon. The consensus was no. Most are working from home for the foreseeable future while juggling homeschooling and daily walks for sanity. There is actually no where to go to wear heels so I’ve […]

I can’t think of a better time for the new Sézane Lifestyle Collection to launch than during a time when we are all quarantined at home. The floral prints on the wallpaper, tote bags, and pillows sing of spring and new beginnings and are the result of a personal passion project from Sézane founder Morgane […]

It might be cold today but it will be in the 70s next weekend. Perfect time to think about the house dress, a loose and comfortable dress that can be worn for Zoom calls and a walk around the block without feeling constricted. I’ve put together 20 of my favorites to get you started. I’ve […]

After a very rainy and grey April, it feels like blue skies are ahead which means we can finally start wearing cute clothes. I’m ready to burn everything I’ve worn so far in quarantine so far and if you are too, I’ve put together some colorful options to get you excited about warmer weather. I’ve […]

If there was any year when moms deserve some really great Mother’s Day presents, it’s this year. She’s probably been juggling working from home, grocery shopping, cooking, cleaning, homeschooling, and keeping everyone safe while trying not to loose her mind. You owe her. Here are some gift ideas to get you started on your shopping […]

I’ve shared a lot of my at home hair and beauty secrets on Instagram Stories during the last few weeks but thought it was time to put them all together in a blog post. Before I begin talking about hair color, I want to urge you to do a test of the color whether it’s […]

“April is the cruellest month, breedingLilacs out of the dead land, mixingMemory and desire, stirringDull roots with spring rain.” – T.S. Eliot I don’t think even T.S. Eliot could have predicted just how cruel April would be in 2020. April has always been my favorite month since it contains the day of my birth but […]

It has already begun to feel like Groundhog Day under quarantine and that’s probably because I keep wearing the same few outfits. I thought maybe I should rotate some new sweaters into the mix but no one is seeing me so I usually don’t bother. I might pull out some dresses later if this lasts […]

Spring 2020 Sales

03 . 26 . 20

In quarantine it feels like there’s not much to do except eat and shop. I have yet to start my closet clean out and organizing projects but they might have to wait until I see what’s new on sale. If you need a little pick me up, perhaps some more pots and pans, or even […]

In honor of spring, my lovely friend Heidi Wynne is offering Habitually Chic customers 25% off site wide which includes her luxurious cashmere and straw bags. I like to carry a cashmere scarf year round, but especially during spring and summer. They comes in handy when the weather is changeable, restaurants have the air conditioning […]

It was 70 degrees in New York on Monday which makes me glad I’ve already been buying dresses for spring and summer. I just know it’s going to be consistently warm very soon after a record warm winter. I’ve put together 20 dresses that are perfect for everyday, events, Easter, and more. I also tried […]

There’s a feeling of concern in the air in New York right due to the Coronavirus threat. I don’t have enough food purchased stockpiled in case I have to quarantine at home for two weeks but I do have enough beauty and skincare products to keep me occupied thanks to the Dermstore Beauty Refresh Event […]

Just when I had decided that my spring and summer wardrobe would consist exclusively of neutrals, navy, and black, the new Emma movie comes out and makes me want to wear pretty pastry colored pastels. I suppose I could add in a few pieces or wear them on my Southern trips or I could just […]

I came across P. Johnson Femme tailors on Instagram today and immediately fell in love with their chic jackets as well as their look book that was photographed in Paris. The collection of single and double breasted blazers and trousers are part of the women’s tailoring line from P. Johnson Tailors for men who are […]
