You guys have seen me in this blazer a million times by now, but I just want to finally put it on the blog along with a few other ways that I've been styling it recently. If you've been following the blog and my social for a while, I'm sure you know by now, how I feel regarding the fashion industry and being conscious with my consumption. There are more and more talks about sustainable fashion every single day, but the one way that I have found this to be adaptable for my lifestyle is just making the most out of my clothes and taking good care of pieces over time.

This Anine Bing blazer has gotten a lot of attention recently even though I've picked it up well over a year ago. I think, with the rapid revolving door of trends coming through and exiting lately, houndstooth just sticks out as a print that feels a little more timeless, making it perfectly apt for a classic piece like a blazer. I've worn this jacket through the Spring, and have been finding it to be a piece that's quite sufficient for Autumn and even early Winter. It is really well made and sturdy and I would also recommend similar styles of blazers under this brand.

Cozy Up + BF Sales Picks

November 25, 2021

I've been working with Kenneth Cole for the past few months on a long-term partnership, my longest partnership with a brand, yet. I shot these quickly on my fire escape when I was back in New York a few weeks ago and thought these photos were worthy to document on the blog. Every single year, I look at all of the new fashion trends and predictions, and it blows me away how relevant a good trench coat always is (this pleated one has me drooling). For outerwear, I'm a firm believer that you should always shop them on sale. I've gotten some of my best coats that I wear years after years off season and on some of these major sales period. While not many winter coats will be going on sale now, many great lighter jackets that can be super cute next Spring or Fall will.

I went ahead and selected a few of my jackets and coats from the Shopbop sale that's taking place throughout this weekend for you to consider. I especially love these structured but oversized, fur, and puffers styles.

All The Feels + UO Gift Guide

November 24, 2021


Gifting season is just around the corner and I’m looking forward to giving as much as receiving. With so many deals and stores to choose from, I figure it would be best to share a series of gift options all in one place, Urban Outfitters. From gifts for her, for him, and even for those loved ones who seem to have everything already- here are some of my picks in price ranges for you to consider.


Under 50

Sometimes the best gifts don’t have to be the most expensive gifts. Something as simple as a silk eye mask, a unique flower vase, or an aromatic candle is just as thoughtful and heart-warming for the holiday season. For something more personalized, a corduroy bucket hat would be so cute. And for those who love hosting, a fun card game is the gift that keeps giving.

Wide Wale Corduroy Bucket Hat
Slip Silk Eye Mask
Chloe Glass Candle
We’re Not Really Strangers Card Game
Female Form Vase


Under 125

There’s no harm in spoiling the people we love just a little extra this year because these are gifts that will be useful every day. I’m a sucker for a good bathrobe, and I think this would make a great gift for the men in my life. For friends that are getting into a more healthy and conscious lifestyle, a Crosley record player or a Vitruvi essential oil diffuser to relax, a cute Fujifilm Instax Mini for capturing moments for journaling, and even Bala weights for easy at-home workouts would be so useful.
Bala UO Exclusive Bangles Wearable Weight Set
Polo Ralph Lauren Lounge Robe
Vitruvi Essential Oil Diffuser
Fujifilm Instax Mini 11 Instant Camera
Crosley UO Exclusive Wood Voyager Record Player


Under 500

If you’re feeling generous, these are some of Urban Outfitters’ top gift ideas and they will surely make someone’s day. I personally already have a pair of Dr. Martens and a pair of classic Ugg as well as a great wool jacket, and I can’t recommend them enough (especially if you’re thinking of getting any of these as a little something for yourself). Everyone, of course, has a plant and a music love in their life, so I think there’s no going wrong with a cute plant stand and a quality Marshall speaker too.

UGG Classic II Boot
Rattan Plant Stand
Dr. Martens Jadon Platform 8-Eye Boot

Laidback Fall

November 23, 2021



It has been a while since I have last updated my sneakers rotation. When it comes to casual sneakers, comfort is a priority, and then, of course, colorway and style. I have been eyeing this pair of New Balance 574 for the past few months and finally decided to grab it as I think it'll be a good addition to my everyday errand look. When it comes to styling a pair of New Balance sneakers like this, I find that keeping my outfit neutral is the way to go. So far, I’ve been loving how it works perfectly with my favorite oversized coat here. I can also see it being a great pair of sneakers for cozier sweatsuit outfits and thicker socks.

As I use this occasion to share my new sneaker purchase I also want to share that New Balance will have an awesome Cyber Week Offer dropping soon. For now, feel free to check out this grey 574 pair that I'm wearing here, and look out for 25% off select styles that might catch your eyes.


25% off sitewide at NewBalance.com from 11/26 – 11/30 (exclusions applied).

Jacket: Stand Studio
Top: Citizen of Humanity Ribbed Tank
Denim: GRLFRND Denim from REVOLVE
Sneakers: New Balance Core 574 (Grey)

I haven't been in New York for fall the past few years so I was pleasantly happy to catch some early foliage in Central Park this year. Most of my current wardrobe is in Spain so I'm wearing pretty much everything that I have in New York, which includes this autumn-toned plaid oversized coat and my By Far boots. I did pick up a new top that I paired with everything here. I'm a sucker for more skin-tight tops for the fall as I find that they actually retain heat much better. This Jacquemus top is quite the statement despite how simple it seems. I love how it pairs casually with my monochromatic outfit.

Everytime I wear this coat, I always get a ton of questions, but unfortunately it's from a few years back at Aritzia (Wilfred Prescott Wool Coat) so I'm linking some plaid coat options in this post. If you haven't caught up yet, I'll be sharing a few snippets of my NYC trip on my Instagram this week. Happy Fall.



Coat: Aritzia (Wilfred Prescott Wool Coat, a similar option here)
Top: Jacquemus Lucciu Top
Pants: Trave Denim
Shoes: By Far Sofia Boots
Bag: Chanel WOC
