Roni on LTK

Uniqlo's quality has shifted, but these pieces still deliver: natural distressing on the denim, sculptural collars on the cotton shirts, and smart pocket construction on the barn jacket. Here's what's actually worth it. I'm wearing the Uniqlo x JW Anderson Oxford Boxy Crop Shirt and the T-shirt beneath.

High-rise jeans engineered right: from Khaite's $620 cult favorite to more affordable options that nail the construction details. 🏆high rise jeans, straight leg jeans, dark wash denim, Khaite dupe, designer jeans alternative, quality denim, jean fit guide

True to size except the $50 crewneck, whose sleeves are short on me (I’m 5’7”). Same goes for the $80 cardigan. I still love them, just scrunch up the sleeves 🤎Cardigan | Sweaters | Cashmere | Jenni Kayne | Quince | Affordable Finds ✨

Not all Quince cashmere is created equal. The baby cashmere ($250) falls short of luxury standards with short fibers that create surface fuzz and stiff drape. The $50 crewneck has inconsistent quality and runs short. The sweet spot: Mid-range pieces with current silhouettes and 5+ years of wear: Oversized Crewneck ($120) - The quiet luxury uniform, competes with Jenni Kayne's $495 version with smoother surface Fisherman Turtleneck ($120) - Chunky look, polished feel, perfect for layering (I sized down to XS) Structured Cardigan ($160) - Double-faced knit creates sculptural shape without sacrificing smoothness Fisherman Quarter Zip ($120) - For the Chanel formula: wear over a white tee and a pearl necklace These pieces give you Grade-A Mongolian cashmere (34-36mm fiber length, 7-12 gauge construction) at prices that make sense. With proper care, they'll last years while maintaining that refined look. quince cashmere review, best quince sweaters, cashmere quality guide, loro piana alternative, jenni kayne dupe, affordable cashmere, Grade-A Mongolian cashmere, oversized cashmere sweater, cashmere cardigan, winter knitwear

Button-up shirts that pass key construction tests: aligned collars that frame your face beautifully, properly interfaced plackets, and thoughtful details that last. Investment pieces across price points. I'm wearing a Polo Ralph Lauren shirt in a relaxed style that's been discontinued, but the new ones here look the same to me! I have the Banana Republic oversized style and another one thats' been discontinued. BR overachieves with shirting. The Uniqlo x JW Anderson cropped shirts have been favorites since they came out. Slightly different, but I also have the Jules from J.Crew with the ruffle collar. | white shirts, button up shirts, classic shirts, wardrobe staples, quality basics, timeless pieces

Before you save for that blazer - or even try it on - here's what to check. These construction flaws show up even at luxury price points, while some affordable options get the details right. The seam allowance ridge, the collar that doesn't rise properly, the bubbling interfacing - these aren't subjective style preferences. They're technical failures that only get worse with wear. Whether you’re going for an hourglass blazer or something more relaxed, you can check for these red flags.

The Chanel formula elevates quarter zips, and it’s also excellent with chunky crewnecks or high v-necks 🤍 Quince, J.Crew, The Met Store, Mango

My Gap picks: wide-leg jeans that rival Khaite's $680 version for $71, plus the baggy style with Tencel drape that keeps you from being swallowed by the cut. I usually wear size 26 in jeans, and I’m 5’7”. High Rise Stride Wide-Leg Jeans (similar to Khaite): 26 2T (need to order the regular length); Mid Rise UltraSoft Baggy Jeans (baggy Tencel jeans): size 25 0R 👖gap denim, wide leg jeans, khaite alternative, affordable jeans, tencel jeans, workwear, classic modern style, capsule wardrobe, dark rinse denim
