Since I can’t quite bring myself to dress literally for a holiday (but power to you if you do!), a few pops of red is about as festive as it gets this Valentine’s Day. Wishing you a day filled with love, regardless of who you are spending it with!

THE CLOSET ESSENTIALS NO.1: The Black Pump
After going through the process of downsizing your closet, then comes the fun part: building it back up! I’m excited to start sharing some of my “Closet Essentials” list with you, starting off with the super classic, tried-and-true black pump. I personally like mine single soled (i.e. no platform), pointy, and between 3-4 inches, as I think those features make for the most flattering and chic pump. I’d also recommend buying the best quality you can afford: it’s worth it […]

Because while I don’t want to complain (and I’m thankful for clothes that keep […]

Missoni Inspired
I’m a big fan of dresses, but find that they’re more often than not hard to style for winter since the details usually disappear under layers. As such, most of my frocks only come out in the Spring/Summer months. This one, though, has been on repeat since its thick knit material makes it entirely colder weather appropriate. The graphic, Missoni-inspired print is just the icing on the cake! Wearing: YesStyle dress (c/o), Mackage jacket, BCBGMAXAZRIA belt, Stuart Weitzman booties (c/o), Artessorio […]
