My favorite boots from last year are in dire need of a shining and/or buffing. I wore them tirelessly through a slushy winter and it apparently shows. I love these boots because they’re dead ringers for Loeffler Randall’s classic Matilde boots, which I wanted badly a couple years back; instead, I paid a fraction of […]
I headed back to the homeland to see my parents and sisters this past weekend. The best parts about going home (rather than the obvious company of loved ones) include: the abundance of food in the fridge, suburban malls, roads without traffic, and raiding my sister’s closet. We are similar in size and build and […]
When I got this tan leather jacket a few months back, I hung it at the front of my closet just waiting for the day it would be cool enough outside to wear it. That’s the blessing and the curse of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale–you can buy fall items for a significant discount, but unfortunately, […]
This is what a desperate last attempt of summer looks like. Tank tops + sandals. Actually, I’m lying…these photos are from Rome and it was quite toasty for our time there. As much as I love fall (ex: I bought $40 worth of socks today), I’m always sad to see summer leave. Do I really […]

I’m going on vacation in 21 days (but who’s counting) and while I’m totally unprepared, my excitement is overwhelming. I know my days will be jam packed with sight-seeing, walking, and shopping, but I take comfort in the fact that I’ll have some spare time to leisurely meander in Paris + Rome, as I’ve already […]
Nautical for spring. How groundbreaking. Stop fighting it! Nothing gets your gears grinding for spring like a set of stripes. Yes, it’s mainstream and expected, but it’s the American (or is it French?) way. Even hipsters can’t deny the lure that is stripes this time of year. As soon as you don some, it’s automatically […]
