The layered turtleneck has somehow always felt super sophisticated to me, maybe because my mom has always incorporated it into her wardrobe for as long as I can remember. Doesn’t it have that balance of cozy-sleek-slightly-academic that is perfect for fall? And no, the Cold Weather Grinch (moi) is not about to wax poetic about […]
Sometimes you just want to wear a sweatshirt, can I get an amen? I don’t know about you, but for me there are days when I want to let my body hang loose and snuggle up in some soft, fuzzy cotton. But you see, there are days when vanity still shows up for duty, even […]
I almost titled this post “Accidentally Isabel Marant,” but decided against it – because although this look does strongly resemble some of Marant’s recent work, I hadn’t even seen her latest runway show when I put this look together. What this look is really about is the Magnificent Trend of the Oversized Jacket – with […]
Is your Instagram feed full of people talking about how woooonderful fall is? Mine is and I’m feeling very resistant to all the kumbaya-fall feelings. As much as I love fashion, I actually only like having to wear ONE layer at a time. I like warm sun, not stifling layers! Maybe I’m so resistant because […]
Yesterday was not a lazy Sunday for me – lots of errands, work obligations, and running around, it just didn’t have the rhythm of a Sunday. But my body was feeling that lazy weekend vibe and just wanted to be in something stretchy. An easy, easy, easy outfit. Ribbed bodysuit: check. Sweatpants: check. Suede (esque) […]
One of my pet-peeves is people jumping the gun with the seasons – back to school ads running in July, Halloween candy in September, Christmas music before Thanksgiving, and, most relevant to today, saying that it’s fall when it is Still. Summer. And here I find myself, posting a sweater outfit when we have two […]
Welcome back to the land of the workweek! Haha! How was your Labor Day weekend? We spent ours assembling a new dresser from Ikea. I see it as a marriage-enhancing exercise – and I’m happy to report that we assembled the whole thing as a team, with no bickering. A. Maze. Ing. Some friends of […]
Today’s offering is a mini-post of sorts, since next week kicks off Fashion Month and it’s going to be very content-heavy (who’s excited?!? Moi!). So let’s get to it: May I recommend Nicholas maxi dresses? Hear me out. Last week, my mom and stepdad were in town, which meant lots of delicious family dinners and […]
Last week, one of my dearest friends turned 31 years old and huge group of us turned out to a restaurant in North Beach to celebrate! I love birthdays, but this one was special – Michelle and her husband Shaun are moving from SF to London in a few weeks. While I’m happy to visit […]
They’re HERE! The outfit photos of the look that had such potential for tackiness that my sister double dared me to 1. Wear it in public; 2. Make it look good; 3. Post on the blog. For the Internet to see. Challenge accepted, executed, and now, delivered. For a recap of allllll the border-line inappropriate […]
