Le Pliage Original L Tote bag … curated on LTK

What I wore for a day at The Plaza Hotel.

Looking chic and elevated doesn’t have to break the bank. I’ve mixed some high and low pieces to bring this look to life and make it feel chic and polished.

As always, I’m tagging everything I am wearing plus also sharing some similar items at different price points.

Layers are your best friend this Fall season. Once the weather turns, your outfit is more about your outerwear. This Fall. Oat for women is one I grab for routinely. Lightweight. Not lined. Perfect for layering while still looking polished.

It’s the season for layers. I’ve been in Zurich and it’s been raining and cold. And it reminds me how much I rely on layering. Cool mornings, warmer afternoons followed by colder evenings - layers will be your best friend!

Dinner in Zurich? Yes, please. Whether traveling far or enjoying a night out, these pieces are vegetative fall staples that can go from day to night to travel.

Everything fits true to size.

Summer dresses are still relevant for Fall. You just need the right layers and accessories to transition them from warm summer days to cooler Fall weather.

My 9-5 look can go right into evening plans with a few accessory changes.

I swapped out my slingback heel for an elevated flat slingback, added a belt and a clutch.

While I love a heel, my back doesn’t not. And these shoes, while stylish, are equally comfortable.

Wearing my true size in pants and top (6 and small)

My holy grail for at-home skin care. I have been using La Roche Posay moisturizer for years. It’s hydrating but not sticky or oily. And super affordable!

Routine:

I start with Skinceuticals C E Ferulic® with 15% L-Ascorbic Acid, followed by P-Tiox (it’s like Botox in a bottle and much safer), then I put on one pump of Advanced RGN-6, which is designed to reverse visible signs of aging.

I then finish with my moisturizer. I have noticed significant benefits since starting these products last year. They are pricey, but totally worth it. And these bottles last 3-4 months, so while the initial cost is high, the products last a good bit.

Looks designer is buttery soft and doesn’t break the bank? Yes!

While I have a pair of Gucci loafers I’ve owned since 2005, I recently bought these on a whim and can honestly say, I am in love!

Wearing some of my favorite AFFORDABLE jewelry brands.

I love accessorizing my looks with gold accessories and jewelry. It works for my skin tone and works for my more neutral color palette.

These are pieces I wear several times a week. And I swear by their quality.

Stylish classic staples never go out of style. This lady cardigan is under $35 but looks and feels more luxe than its price point.

Wearing size small. Wearing a size 6 in pants. Have tagged several shoes at different price points. I’m wearing the Stuart Weitzman slingback.

Every day staples always get a workout in my closet. I’m looking forward to cooler weather and more button downs.

Wearing size small in blouse, size 6/28 in jeans. Tagged additional items at different price points. My shoes are the Hermes Oran Sandal, tagged others that are more affordable.

Do not miss my fashion hack!

Transform any long necklace to a shorter style with this simple trick.

Pinch the necklace where you want it to lay, secure with a clear elastic band, drop the length in the back down your top, dress or jacket.

It’s that easy!

I love a monochromatic look. It looks chic and elevated and it’s easy to coordinate.

These pieces are from one of my favorite British brands that provides high quality, yet affordable staples that you will wear on repeat.

Added a cropped trench because it’s been raining here all week and the temperatures have dropped. It is one of my most worn coats.

What I wore on the plane to Vegas.

Paired a comfortable, stretchy pair of cropped white denim with a white tank, denim button down and a striped cashmere sweater.

Planes are cold, and I find layers, even in summer, work best.

These pieces are great staples that can easily be worn with other staples I have packed.

Cashmere sweater is from last year but tagged this year’s style which is similar. Also tagged some others.

What I wore to dinner in Venice.

This sleek vest is a head turner and I had two strangers stop me about it while on our way to dinner in Venice.

It is stunning and equally versatile. You could style this with black pants, over a tank dress or pair with a skirt.

Wearing size small.

Jeans are ones I share often because the healing and fit are SO good!

And let’s talk about these necklaces…one of my favorite brands to travel with. The quality is exceptional.

What I wore for afternoon tea at The Plaza Hotel. I’ve had this dress over a year and it is my most worn. You can easily change the look by adding a belt, a cardigan, a jacket or blazer. I travel with this dress and it rarely wrinkles.

Under $50, which makes it budget friendly.

#LTKSeasonal #LTKOver40 #LTKFindsUnder50

When ever I travel I do two very important things:

1. I never wear or bring anything expensive. I even swap out my wedding bands for something similar. I learned this lesson the hard way in my early twenties when a ring slipped off my finger at a beach. I was devastated.

2. All jewelry travels in this case. Then, once at my destination and I remove my jewelry before bed, it all goes in a glass at the hotel. Once I shower in the morning, everything goes back on.

If no glasses are provided, I use a coffee cup or request one.

I never leave jewelry on a nightstand as the hotel room is unfamiliar territory - some nightstands being very close to the bed or higher to the bed where things could accidentally get bumped at night and fall on the floor.

This serves as a nice “catch all” for jewelry I will want to wear throughout my travels.

💎Always leave delicate chains or bracelets draped over the edge of the glass so that they do not become tangled.

💎When keeping jewelry in the bathroom, be mindful of the sink. I never handle any jewelry over the sink area ever. Too risky.

I wear most of these pieces daily while traveling and they have held up incredibly well to wear (showers, pools, beaches, etc.)

I recently purchased this jumpsuit for a few upcoming trips and I am beyond thrilled with the fit and the comfort level. It’s a 10/10!

Travels well. Also comes with straps if you don’t want a strapless look. You can add a blazer, cardigan or jacket to change up the look.

I sized up to a medium as the reviews said it ran a little small. I typically would order a small and the medium fits like perfection.

Affordable but elevated staples. The ruffle trim on this blouse just adds such a pretty touch.

Wide leg cropped denim in white - perfect jean for summer.

Gold jewelry for some polish. Plus a super affordable gold sandal (under $25).

A darling market tote that is so fresh for summer.

Wearing a small in blouse. Size 6/28 for denim.

If you’re looking for an affordable, luxurious looking bag that can go from day to night, look no further.

This bag from Melie Bianco, the Monroe, reminds me of Marilyn - sexy, stylish and has a certain je ne sais quoi!

Available in several colors.

Both dresses are super affordable- under $125!

They fit true to size and look and feel more luxe than their price tag.

If you’re looking for a fabulous black dress that you can wear to a wedding or a formal event, these wedding guest dresses are sure to wow!

Affordable date night pieces that look high end but are affordable. I share NYDJ jeans often because I love how they are tailored for women. They hug in all the right places.

*Note: photo for my blouse shows white below. But it will take you to the black one.

Elevated, everyday staples that are super affordable.

Paired this short sleeve lady cardigan with a cuffed cream denim that feel like sweats but look like jeans. Comfort and style are not mutually exclusive over here.

Sandals are from several years ago. You can find them on resale but have also tagged additional ones.

What to Wear in London this Summer.

Brunch in London is a must. It’s a fabulous time to enjoy local fare and have a mimosa.
