Love Story

On the plane ride home I watched Love Story, a series documenting the whirlwind relationship of John F. Kennedy and Carolyn Bessette. The best part of the series for me was reliving the fashion from the early 90’s. The minimalist fashion and simple color palette consisting of black, white, and khaki. There was such an ease to her dressing that captivated so many. I’m sharing some pieces that can achieve some of her iconic looks below.

  1. Maje Double Faced Wool Coat, $965 All her coats were belted or tailored.
  2. Leset Kick Flare Cropped Pant, $260 She loved a cropped kick flare, denim version from Alex Mill, khaki version High Sport.

Ciao

ME+EM Blazer // Nili Lotan Leopard Cashmere Crew // Quince Cashmere Crew // Jeanerica Jeans // Toteme Clutch

Usually when I travel to Florence, it’s a quick two or three day trip packed with activities. This time I’m seeing it a lot differently without a ton of scheduled plans. The past two nights we sat outside Il Santo Bevitore having aperitivo and watching all the beautifully dressed Italian men and women. I could sit there for hours, the fashion is so chic yet practical for city living. There is an ease to the way people interact with one another and enjoy life at a slower pace than in the states. While roaming the streets, I stopped into the original Gucci store to pick up a new pair of loafers and mules. I also checked out the new IT suede Borsetto bag along with this belt and sunglasses. Also on my list was a stop at the Hogan store to replace my sneakers (I got these & these). Lastly, was the Ferragamo store to try on the Vara pumps. I bought them many years ago in Rome, they just revamped the Vara with a block heel and a quilted ballet flat (love them all, classic!).

We are staying at the beautiful Collegio Alla Querce – the decor, service, and architecture is truly magnificent!

This is a picture from the Gucci Museum which was a very cool exhibition.

Sal’s

Last night I had an early birthday dinner at Sal’s in West Hollywood. Sal’s, normally based in Provincetown, touches down in West Hollywood for the winter months, serving Italian classics like linguini alla vongole, orecchiette with sausage and greens, and a chopped Caesar. It’s a warm and cozy atmosphere with dim lighting, beautiful flowers adoring the tables, and interesting people. I wore a ME+EM blazer, Mother jeans, Loeffler Randall boots, White + Warren cashmere sweater, and Toteme bag. While I was getting dressed I was missing a couple items from my wardrobe, a silk blouse (I like this ref one), a simple camel cashmere crew, and a fine rib turtleneck. I will be adding these items to my replenish list. Have a great day everyone!

This & That

I’ve been looking to replace my black jumpsuit and settled on the above one by A.L.C.. Everyone should have one in their repertoire, it can be worn over and over again and refreshed with shoes, jewelry, and shoes. I love the A.L.C. Kieran wide leg (runs true to size), the fabric is so flattering and it has stretch which makes it so comfortable. If you are looking for a sleeveless version this one at A.L.C. is one sale (also very flattering) along with this one.

Yesterday’s rainy day cozy outfit comprised of this Jenni Kayne sweater (mine is last season), Polo Ralph Lauren utility pants (I love!), Mansur tote bag, and Officine boots. While out and about yesterday I stopped by Faregrounds Beverly Hills to try the viral miso caesar wrap and it was delicious.

J. Crew teamed up with five independent New York based designers to put their unique spin on J. Crew’s iconic roll neck sweater. To check out the collaboration click here. My favorite from the collection is the above one by Eckhaus Latta.
