As we’re dreaming of what we might wear when life returns to normal (and maybe doing a bit of online shopping as well), we might start thinking about what exactly we can be shopping for

I know I’m already dreaming of the perfect outfit to wear for my first venture out the door into a post-social distancing world. What better time than now to start building up your wardrobe for spring and summer? I’ve always enjoyed learning about the zodiac signs, but being isolated in my own home has given me even more time to deep dive into their meanings.

This morning when I was getting dressed, I realized it would be cold enough to wear my wool wrap coat and I did a literal happy dance to the delight of no one (I live alone)

Fall dressing just makes me so damn happy. Cinching my wrap coat, hearing my boots click on the sidewalk, letting the wind tug tendrils out of my ponytail. The simplest pleasures. And since fall dressing is my one true nirvana, here are all the pieces I recommend investing in for peak fall and winter wardrobe success. Go forth and get cozy, friends.     Honestly, at the end of a long work day the only thing I want to do is come home and fall into a pile of cashmere turtlenecks. They are just. so. damn. snuggly.

I Tried Making Juicy Couture Tracksuits Happen Again in the Year 2019

The year is 2004. I’m sitting in a pedicure chair (bowl: empty; shoes: on) and waiting for my mom to finish up work at her nail salon so she can take my fifth grade ass home.

Fifteen years later, that wish came true. First off, yeah, 15 years is a damn long...

I hope you’re having a good week! Today I’m taking a look at an easy-going fall staple that I was really excited to test out and style into not 1, not 2, not 3, not even 4 but 5 different looks for the season!

One essential cold weather style that never lets me down is a classic turtleneck. They’re just such a great base for so many looks and activities and the moment the temps start pointing south I find myself reaching for them. I was thrilled to see that my pals at Tradlands had released the Monty Turtleneck within their FW19 lineup and in a perfectly striped cotton no less. This piece was an instant hit in my closet and I wanted to share some thoughts on why this contemporary take on a classic is unique along with some ideas on how to wear it. Let’s get to it...
