So what if my ideal power suit includes a crop top and a belly chain? In the Stig boardroom, there are only two rules: 1. Wear what honors who you are and what you’re up to, and 2. Never hang knits. Nowhere in Company guidelines does it say to never mix midriff and shoulder pads. […]
Every now and then, an outfit comes along that surprises you – this knit set was one of them. I mean, a polo shirt? A midi skirt? All knit, like an extra’s outfit from The Queen’s Gambit? And in lime??? Ah, yes, people: it happened. It was just so clingy, so shiny, so demure yet […]
We’re talking KNITS! Specifically doing it up SWEATER DRESS STYLE! Whoop! They’re slinky, they’re cozy, they’re sweet – but not at all demure. This specific combo, the sweater dress over a turtleneck, was a fixture in my childhood. All of the Moms and Teachers wore sweater dresses like this, with chunky gold jewelry and pumps. […]
Business first: my Thanksgiving 2020 OOTD! Friends, trust me when I say that the most effortless holiday outfit is the knit midi dress. Yes, even when you have a food baby, this thing looks GOOD, and here’s why. First off, if you’re like me and like a smooooooooth silhouette, you gotta put your Spanx on […]
Today we tackle a Fashion Nemesis: cargo shorts. Surprised? So am I. I was just minding my own business, doing whatever we millennials are doing in the time of ‘Rona, and my jerk lovely sister sends me this Reel on Instagram: She then follows with a series of words that, between siblings, is not a […]
This is the trend that made real what I had been hunting for for months, yet hadn’t put into words – The Nap Dress. An idea so pure, so on-point, so rich, that journalists have been tap-tapping away at their keyboards since the start of summer, singing the Nap Dress Praises. I mean, it even […]
Whether or not you’re a clotheshorse, we’re all becoming more attentive to how our buying habits shape working conditions and environmental impact of the fashion industry. We have a conundrum – the world is on fire, brands continue to use sweatshops, and information on brand sustainability and ethical practices is often obtuse at best. There […]
I’ve fallen in LOVE with tangerine and am here to evangelize its appeal for those hazy days between summer and fall. If you’re not convinced, read on! The end of summer is always a doozy here in the Bay Area. For whatever reason, our hottest days often come in September, and many of us near […]
It happens naturally. Every few months, a handful of items pop on my radar and I simply can’t put them out of my brain. They’re these little fixations on very specific pieces – some of them trends, others not. This summer was (shockingly) no different, and before I knew it, I had a running list […]
If you’ve been on Instagram, Pinterest, or TikTok lately, you’ve seen it: yes folks, that Oughts favorite, the peasant top, is ba-aaaaaackk! Let’s be clear – the 2020 iteration leans heavily on shape and proportion in ways that the 2000s-by-way-of-1960s tops never dared. These bbs are more fitted, cropped, and have punchy sleeves or sliding-off-the-shoulder […]
