Spring Style: Cropped Faux Leather Jacket + Wide Leg Pants
Avec Amber
by
3d ago
The last two weekends have been decently warm, sunny, and springlike here in Seattle, and I am very much enjoying the ability to stow my wool winter coats in favor of lighter jackets. This spring I am loving all types of cropped jackets such as the one I am sharing with you today: this Cropped Cargo Faux Leather Jacket unfortunately is now sold out, but I linked it here in case more sizes become available. Today's outfit is inspired by a relatively new show called "Death and Other Details" that I just finished watching via Hulu! I really enjoyed the murder mystery storyline, but more impo ..read more

Spring Style: Floral Embroidered Sweater

Spring is only a few weeks away and I am already starting to notice the longer days here in Seattle. I did a recent closet clean-out, donated a number of items, and created room for some new seasonal pieces. If you have been following me for a while, you already know how much I love crisp white tops with jeans any time of the year Today's look continues that theme with a new addition to my closet: this floral embroidered sweater. I followed the size chart, ordered a size XS, and am very happy with the fit. Now I know what you are going to say: florals are groundbreaking for spring, w ..read more

Transitional Style: Oversized Sneakers
Avec Amber

The oversize trend really took off in 2020, for good reason, and shows no sign of going away anytime soon. The combination of comfort and style without looking like you are trying too hard has massive appeal, and I appreciate that there are so many options to incorporate oversized pieces into every closet. Back in December I decided to shop for a pair of black sneakers to wear during our end of year Paris trip (you may have seen me wearing them in this IG post), and fell in love with these chic oversized sneakers. I had seen this particular style before in white, but there is somethi ..read more

Transitional Style: Bustier Top + Blazer

Wishing you a restful long weekend if you have one for Presidents' Day in the US! I count myself lucky to not be working today, and also to be home this week after a couple of busy weeks of work travel with typical winter flight delays. This weekend I have been catching up on sleep, catching up with friends, and catching up on workouts. In addition, I had a chance to assess recent purchases including this beautiful bustier top. The bustier or corset top trend is back this spring, I always need new seasonal tops to refresh my closet, and I decided I needed to jump on board. I followed the size ..read more

Transitional Style: How to Style Silver Shoes This Season

 Gong xi fa cai (恭喜发财), xin nian kuai le (新年快乐) to all who celebrate Lunar New Year! Wishing good health, happiness, and good fortune to everyone in the year of the Dragon. Some of you know that I studied Mandarin in college and had the amazing opportunity to work in Shanghai for a year-long project about ten years ago. I created a series of posts on my China adventures that you can see here. It is so fun to look back at those posts--I feel like it was a lifetime ago and I have so many great memories from that time. Today I definitely feel older, not sure about wiser (haha), but I still t ..read more

Transitional Style: Neutral Basics + Faure le Page Tote

 Neutral basics are the core of a capsule wardrobe, and the key pieces to your capsule wardrobe may look different than mine depending on where you live. The milder weather we have here in the Pacific Northwest means that late fall, winter, and early spring are all similar (with some exceptions, of course) and my go-to basics are the same. Today I am sharing a casual look made up of several of those neutral basic pieces: a tailored wool coat, a cashmere sweater, skinny jeans, booties, and a roomy carry-all tote. Most of my outfit is made up of existing pieces, with the one exception being ..read more

Winter Style: Plaid Wool Shacket & Skirt Matching Set

Are you a fan of bright colors or neutral tones during the winter season? I love and wear both, but as we are currently in the darkest days of winter I feel like pops of color are a great way to brighten up a dreary day and my mood. This fuchsia plaid wool shacket c/o Sézane and skirt set do just that! You saw me style this shacket earlier this month with a faux leather skirt and over the knee boots in this post, and I liked the print and style of the shacket so much that I purchased the matching skirt. Both are 100% wool in a warm winter-friendly weight and fully lined so as not to be it ..read more

After relatively mild November and December, this month we have finally gotten hit with our first real dose of winter and sub zero temperatures. I took today's photos two weekends ago, on my favorite kind of sunny Saturday that was warm enough to run errands in the city without a heavy coat. If there is one clothing trend that you buy into this year, I strongly recommend a classic cardigan like the one I am sharing here today. If you have been following me for a bit, you saw me share this mohair cardigan last spring in this French-inspired work outfit and I am back today with a casual wee ..read more
