repeat after me: life's better in a sweater. except maybe when it's still 80 degrees. i was so kindly gifted the spruce sweater from darling society's fall collection which just launched september 1st. while the temperatures aren't quite sweater weather yet, i know this cozy knit will get plenty of wear in the early months of the ...
by now i'm certain you've seen some form of this turtleneck in your instagram feed. probably worn by some effortlessly chic european paired with tossled hair, a straight leg denim, designer loafers on a cobblestone street. or maybe that's just my feed? at any rate, beloved blog readers, meet this season's IT knit. oh that's ...
as someone with a small instagram following (small in terms of fashion influencers), it's always a big deal when a brand reaches out to collaborate. it's an even BIGGER deal when said brand is one of my absolute favorite ones.

despite the fact that fall doesn't *officially* start for another week, as far as i'm concerned, it's time to start dreaming up autumn outfits --outfits that incorporate my newest closet addition, the perfect light-weight puffer jacket in the dreamiest toffee shade. buying jackets when it's still 90-degrees outside is kind of like buying swimsuits in february, ...
well, well, well. i never thought i'd see the day i'd belt a dress again. but here we are. mango vichy check dress (4/small) || loft leather wrap belt (xs/s) || target univesral thread dahlia mules (sized up 1/2 size) i went hard on this trend back in the mid-aughts, so much so that once the ...
