Dental Chic

June 18, 2024

Last week, a (male) coworker of mine stopped to ask if I’d borrowed my super-chic Club Monaco waistcoat from the dentist’s office.^

After a brief trip to the bathroom for some mirror examination, I determined that my new favorite find may, in fact, look like a lab coat… Either way, owning it!

I haven’t been this excited about a purchase since, well, whenever it was I made my last Zara haul (RIP). I’ve been really impressed by Club Monaco’s spring and summer collections (mainly, the modern military prints and bright white basics). I knew I had to have this piece after seeing it on one of my new favorite bloggers/stylists, Anna of Tulip Louise, a few weeks back - it’s incredibly versatile and such an easy way to make an ordinary outfit look instantly trendier.

Music Festival Fashioning

May 21, 2024

Over the past weekend, music festival season kicked off here in New York City. A few girlfriends and I spent Saturday gallivanting around Queens, which was a rather in-your-face reminder that, well, I’m gettin’ old.

Publicly rocking out the sounds of Calvin Harris - and soon, Vampire Weekend, Pretty Lights and St. Lucia — while soaking up some sun (not enough, apparently — those GAMS!) seems to naturally lend itself to street style best described as either beautifully bohemian or… Slutty Pocahontas. To each her own.

I didn’t attend Coachella this year, but this was an outfit I dreamt up a few weeks back during a bout of wishful thinking. Although I’d probably have opted to trade these insane Rocco pumps for a more modest pair of daytime flats.

A part of me wishes I was still raging in the company of teens and tweens up north, but a larger part is looking forward to the outdoor concerts ahead this summer: GovBall, music in Central Park, the list goes on. In a few week’s time, I’m making my first return to Chicago since the big move to New York for a three-day, non-stop festival extravaganza and reunion of friends. Excited is an understatement!
