Warm weather is finally here, and that means garden parties, outdoor dining, and special events. As you start planning your spring wardrobe, my friend Heidi Wynne has you covered with her beautiful new collection of block print floral dresses and lighter weight cashmere. She is generously extending a 15% reduction, site-wide with no exclusions, until […]

I bought quite a few things for my April trip to Paris when the forecast was showing warmer weather but I ended up not packing any of them when it became clear that it would be rather chilly. I had the cool grey weather this year that I was expecting last year but it was […]

Long time readers know that an ivory blouse and jeans is my favorite transitional outfit. Now that spring is here, it’s time to update the look for the new season. The cream ruffle-trim silk blouse on the left looks a little darker in the photo than reality but it’s the perfect option to tuck in […]

I was asked for suggestions on what to wear to summer weddings so I thought I would put a dress edit together. These could be worn for Easter and other events as well, including bridal showers and rehearsal dinners. It was a little overwhelming to put together full accessories for each dress so I just […]

Chic in Paris

I haven’t died. I’ve just died and gone to Paris. Sorry for the lack of posts. Three weeks is the longest I’ve ever gone without blogging in the 16 years of Habitually Chic but hopefully you will forgive me since I have been celebrating my birthday in Paris with friends. I had grand plans to […]

The Sephora Spring Savings Event started Friday for Beauty Insiders with Rouge status. It opens to VIB on April 5 and Insider on April 7 and runs through April 11, 2022 for everyone. Rouge members discount is 20%, VIB is 15%, and Insider is 10%. Members earn their status through purchases made but I think […]

I apologize for the lack of posts for the past week and a half. I was having issues with the website, I also had a friend in New York, and then war was waged on Ukraine by Russia. Every time I think there is a light at the end of the tunnel, something else happens. […]

There comes a time each winter when I want to burn all my cold-weather clothes. That time arrived today. I’m sick of all my grey coats and sweaters and could use a pop of color. I’ve been loving all the pretty pastel coats I’ve been seeing online lately and they’d be a great way to […]

Tulip season is over in New York and the city is now lush and green. Traffic is back too which is a sure sign the city is back to normal. It’s going to be a bit chilly and rainy here this weekend which makes it perfect for watching a new show or movie if you’re […]

It’s going to be 80 degrees here on Wednesday. Time for a pedicure and a new pair of sandals. I’ve picked out 24 of my favorite pairs if you’re ready to change out of your sweats and put on some chic shoes again. I’m personally not ready to wear heels again but I saw many […]

April in New York

04 . 19 . 21

Rumors of New York’s death have been greatly exaggerated. The city has been fully operational since last summer but it’s really come to life this spring thanks to the vaccines. It mirrors the blooming of the flowers and trees which is putting everyone in a great mood. We all predict that the city will be […]

April showers are upon us in New York and that means trench coat weather. I still haven’t found the perfect replacement for my beloved Gryphon trench that finally had to be retired so I’m hoping one of these options might be perfect for me. But if you need a new trench, hopefully one of these […]

It’s finally warm enough to wear dresses in New York and I could not be more excited. I already turned over my closet and realized that most of my dresses are either blue, blue striped, or black so it’s time to add a little more life into my wardrobe for this spring and summer. My […]

It’s finally warmed up and I’m ready to lighten up my wardrobe and my apartment for spring, I’ve put together the chicest bags, furniture, and accessories in wicker, raffia, and straw to change up your outfits and interiors. I bought this Celine Medium Triomphe Basket Bag last year right before quarantine. It was my birthday […]

It was over 70 degrees yesterday but we might get snow flurries next week so dressing in March and even April can be a challenge. This year, I’m inspired by Sofia Coppola who has the perfect wardrobe for unpredictable weather. Her closet staples include navy sweaters, black pants, blue shirts, navy coats, striped tops, ballet […]
