September is my birthday month and this year it truly snuck up on me. I had just gotten back from a wonderful road trip and visit with family so I wasn’t in much mood to do anything. Instead, I decided to treat myself to some new wardrobe items!
I have to thank Instagram for serving me a very convincing ad for my first purchase, the One Quince leather moto jacket. I have always found a classic black leather jacket to be a closet staple, and unfortunately my last one had to be passed on to my sister when I sized out of it. Ever since I have had a small gap in my jacket collection… until now. This one is super affordable, lightweight, and the perfect balance of fitted but roomy enough to layer with.
I also picked up a couple of maternity items to accommodate my growing bump and were super pleased with this super soft striped dress and this lounge set. Both of these will (hopefully) also work postpartum. I typically try to avoid H&M, but tbh I didn’t want to invest much in clothing I may not wear for very long.
Last year I fell in love with my black Brooklyn Lug Boots, so this season I jumped at the chance to get them in this brown color. These boots are incredibly comfortable and a practical yet timeless take on the chunky utility boot.
Lastly, although late in the season, I finally got myself a pair of Birks! I desperately needed comfortable everyday shoes, and since I live in LA these Arizona Sandals are essentially wearable year-round.
These are the Sézane pieces I reach for every summer without thinking twice: dresses, tanks, basket totes, and more that have genuinely earned their place in my closet year after year.
A cotton poplin midi skirt in black or white might be the most quietly versatile thing in your closet. Here are 8 outfits that prove it.
I've been a jeans and t-shirt person my whole life. The poplin maxi skirt is the one piece that changed that. Here's how I wear mine, and why I reach for it more than almost anything else when the weather warms up.
A bag I reach for constantly, leopard jeans I wear twice a week, the best book I've read this year, and a Costco dip that's changed my snack life. May favorites from someone who's pretty selective about what makes the list.
I slowed my shopping at Everlane around 2019. Not because the quality slipped (though it did) but because they union-busted their customer service team. The Shein acquisition isn't a surprise because they stopped being ethical and sustainable long ago.
I admired the Maison Margiela Tabi flats for a while but could never justify the price. Then Steve Madden released their version for $120 and I had to see if they were worth it.
Quince is one of the best value options out there for wardrobe basics, but it takes some trial and error to figure out what's actually worth buying. That's why I do these in depth try-ons and reviews (so you don’t have to)!
I've been seeing the Gerard Darel 24H bag everywhere, and when it arrived in khaki green suede, I understood immediately why people love it — and then I surprised myself by loving it too.
I spent over $1,200 at Sézane this spring. Seven pieces, all natural fibers, and more hits than I expected from a single order. A few things did not fit quite right but the ones that worked really worked. Here is everything...

Refreshing my closet this spring felt less like a makeover and more like a quiet homecoming. Personal style, like a wild garden, isn’t something you build overnight. It’s something you grow into with patience, care, and a little trust in the process.
Each season, I love creating a wishlist — not just to dream, but to be intentional about what I bring into my wardrobe and life. In this video I share what I am currently lusting after…
Five sandals that will genuinely carry you through the entire summer, from beach days to dressed-up evenings. These are the styles worth investing in and the ones I keep coming back to season after season.
