Moving this series from instagram stories to substack so they can live here indefinitely! I’m personally in the business of filling my wardrobe gaps with intention, and logging pieces I know I can actually use before pulling the trigger. Here are 5 things I’ve either thrown in my cart & plan to checkout shortly, orrrrr already received.
: )
STILL HERE ‘The Sweatshirt’ - Just ordered this in white, size XS, and as it came in the mail, I immediately started to game plan my next color choice. It is unisex, with a vintage feel / fit and feels classic. I plan to wear the white with a pair of white jeans for the spring & for my second, I am gravitating towards the gray but in a size S for a more oversized fit.
CUYANA ‘Travel Beauty Roll’ - Specifically in the color ‘ecru’, I got this ahead of my recent trip to El Salvador for a wedding, as I needed to pack wedding makeup & it did not disappoint. My brushes were in tack, liners of all sorts where organized, and it tucked away nicely into my carry on. The quality of leather is quite impressive - I have a few things from Cuyana and they withstand wear and tear seamlessly. Couldn’t recommend enough!
JIL SANDER ‘Knotted Leather Flats’ - To me, Jil Sander is like the Row’s wiser, older sister. She’s been around the block, values function, remains minimal, yet a bit more innovative AND willing to take a risk or two. Cue in these flats, that remind me of the jellies trend we all coveted last summer. This take on a spring / summer statement flat hits the same mark, but feels a little more reliable with quality leather. The knotted details are both eclectic / clean tandemly and I think I am set on the red versus the black pair!
An alternative route for a similar vibe would be these by Freda Salvador, in black.
GUEST IN RESIDENCE ‘Collegiate Stripe Polo’ - I’m a big fan of GIR, despite making our own INSANELY good cashmere at CLYQUE. I think for more unique styles / silhouettes, they crush the category. Quality is always top tier, and for polo fits especially, they have nailed the fit. I don’t usually opt for color, yet I do like a pastel situation in the spring back to light washed denim. This particular knit is calling my name, and I did just wear this one in mint over the past weekend for brunch with friends.
HEAVEN MAYHEM ‘Sloan Clear Glasses’ - Arguably one of my favorite recent purchases, as I have been searching high & low for a flattering clear pair of glasses. I REALLY tried to make the viral Miu Miu ones work, but they didn’t fit the bridge of my nose nicely whatsoever. A girlfriend of mine was wearing these IRL and as I tried hers on, and used my phone camera to scope them out on my face, I felt the search was over. Immediately ordered / love them.
Happy browsing! xx
Been on the hunt for new glasses! Thanks for this👏🏽
