Spring is springing which means it’s time to finally (almost) swap out your sweaters for short sleeves. My favorite weather of all time is a crisp 63 degrees and sunny, and we get about six days a year of this glory. On an unrelated note, my personal goal of systematic shopping has pretty much gone out the window and I’ve been browsing for all kinds of things — primarily on my mind are new jeans (edit coming soon…), event dressing, and the tragic (impending) passing of Matches Fashion. Has anyone figured out what is happening to their in-house brand Raey?? It’s good. Like, real good, so I think everyone should start stocking up in case it’s gone forever.
Live from my cart:
1. This very cute little tie situation 2. Celine sunnies that *aren’t* the ones everyone (including myself) already has and are chic chic chic 3. These Prada shoes that I have seen everywhere and really do think I might need 4. OKAY hear me out. Expensive but worth it. I have a Khaite leather jacket in a similar style and I swear I will wear it to my grave 5. Just bought these babies from Marc Jacobs. Size down… 6. I needed something simple and fun for my second hole and I haven’t taken this off since it arrived. Can barely tell it’s there! 7. Still loving a pop of red and a short sleeve sweater seems like the perfect answer to 63 degrees. 8. This is a classic and I have been staring at it every since it came out. I’m trying to get over hefty price tags if it means pieces I’ll have forever because girl math you know? 9. This white dress is perfect with a little jacket in spring and nothing at all in summer.
Potentially the best new event dress…
From COS! Of course! 1. Here it is in red and it’s so gorgeous. I love the all-red styling but would also mix it up with silver or gold and yet again a great candidate for a killer statement necklace (and/or earring). 2. Still not over these shoes from Manolo Blahnik. They’re almost sold out but they’re good. 3. A great and easy bag from Leandra Medine’s new collab with Soeur. 4. Here it is in black!!! Woo! It’s really just the best and I think we all need it no? 5. I’m really over bad evening bags. I always struggle to find one I like that isn’t tacky and this one comes with a chain so you can wear it as a cross body or shoulder bag if you don’t want to tote it around. Yet again, price per wear ladies…. 6. Super cute statement earrings from Marni 6. I have these in the flat version and they are one of the biggest work horses in my summer closet. Might just need to get these bad boys as well.
Raey don’t go <3
Really am serious, if anyone has any kind of info on Raey’s fate please LMK…. 1. Their denim is unmatched. Not joking. I am going to need to buy appro. 10 pairs. 2. I’m kind of over my studded Khaite belt as I’ve seen it so much which is sad, but this one seems like a happy (and more affordable) alternative. 3. The neck on this simple tee makes it kind of sexy, no? 4. This is a really fun wrap and I run cold, so always finding myself in wrap-appropriate situations. 5. Also love the neck on this black tank, especially with a fun necklace. 6. The best color denim!!! So fun. 7. I’m not usually one for a tuxedo jacket but this one is fab. 7. The neck!!!!! The stripes!!! The knit!!!
