Nick and I snuck away to Charleston for two nights on our first parents-only trip since becoming a family of four! It was so nice to experience some sunshine in one of our favorite charming cities to visit.

I’m excited to partner with Reformation, a brand where I’ve purchased several favorites over the years whether it’s the perfect everyday square neck tank or a little special occasion dress that’s cut to show off some skin. I love that they make petites, and I can also find many pieces in their regular sizing that fit well (read my section about sizing at the bottom). Reformation also offers free shipping on all orders.

This time I wanted to highlight a few of their blouses + one dress in particular that I found to be petite-friendly. Their blouses are mostly made of organic cotton or silk, and have some really ..read more

In recent years I’ve been gravitating more toward looser, oversized fits (especially with long jackets!), but there can be a fine line between oversized chic vs. looking like you’re a kid trying on mom’s clothes. I usually recommend getting alterations for items to fit properly, but sometimes you may need to just quickly and temporarily adjust the fit on something that’s too big.

Happy Monday! This edition of work outfit ideas features a new-to-me affordable brand that turned out to be very petite friendly (Tuesday), a quality Sezane find (Monday), and a $25 Amazon sweater that’s still a favorite after many years (Thursday)!
I know many of you have ditched the heels, so wanted to mention that both ankle pant outfits below work well with my favorite loafers (I have both Black and Soft Beige), and for the trouser pant outfits you can sub in block heeled ankle booties. To see these outfits in motion, check out my Instagram video.

I’m eagerly anticipating a few vibrant pieces I ordered for spring, but the gloomy cold weather here still has me in neutrals mode. My wardrobe has become neutrals heavy over the years since it makes getting dressed just so much quicker, but I’m looking forward to bringing back a little more color in the coming months. For now, here’s a few of my go-to neutral combos that always feel polished!
1. Olive + Black + Cream
Drop skirt xxs (I also have this Quince skirt – see my review), Vero Moda cardigan xs, Madewell top xs, similar shoes, Polene bag, Sezane earrings, Edited Pieces mini belt xxs ..read more

I’ve been building out my silky scarf collection as a way to add print and pops of color to my mostly neutral, solid wardrobe. If you’re worried about looking like a flight attendant with one of these around your neck, an alternative easy use is to dress up a purse handle! The scarf can protect delicate leather handles from your natural skin oils and lotions, and also change up the look of the bag to coordinate wit ..read more

I’m working with Sézane on an IG project, and wanted to do a deeper dive on their sweaters I’ve tried on (including 2 styles I bought a while back and still LOVE)! I almost always tuck my sweaters and know it can be hard to tell how a piece actually fits after it’s been “styled,” so included some photos below of the full length, untucked fit.
If you’re new to Sézane, the Paris-based brand got its start selling vintage clothing, and is focused on creating “high quality, perfectly cut pieces that can be worn forever.” A lot of their piece ..read more
