Boot Scoop

I have an upcoming girls trip to Sun Valley and I was told to leave my fancy clothes at home and pack casual. All I need is a Patagonia (or this cute shearling teddy), boots, a flannel, jeans, and a fedora. I have everything except a pair of boots so I’ve narrowed it down to the below.

  1. Villa Rouge Miloh Hiking Boots Shopbop, $195. Also comes in black.
  2. Montelliana 1965 Camelia Boot Neiman Marcus, $465.

Perfect Black Dress

We all need a Perfect Black Dress in our closet like the above Saint Laurent one Katie Holmes wore to the Nordstrom grand opening in NYC. I love the way she accessorized it with Giuseppe Zanotti pumps and Item M6 polka dots tights (nearly sold out but similar here and here). For all of us who can’t spring for the Saint Laurent mini some additional options are this Jonathan Simkhai (also like this one), Ulla JohnsonC/Meo Collective, Other StoriesAlice + Olivia, and La Maison Talulah mini dress.

Free Peeps

I love when I come across a Ulla inspired top but not with an Ulla price tag. That’s the case with the above Free People Laura top that I plan on wearing with my Levi cropped flares, and a pair of brown suede boots like these from Vince (more sizing here).

Chanel-ish!

Over the weekend I stopped by my local tailor to get some dresses altered. While I was there, a woman came out of the dressing room in a beautiful tweed dress. I said “I love your Chanel dress”. She gave me a bit of a smirk and said it’s “Chanel-ish”. Turns out her Chanel-ish dress was from Shein and only $32 (see it here size up runs small). I ran home and clicked buy!
