When pain and health conditions make it hard to wear typical shoes, try a fashion-forward sneaker! My advice is 2-fold: 1- Choose a pair of sneakers in white or very neutral colors if you can. That will minimize their impact. If you can do a New Balance 327, they are stylishly chunky. But if you need a Hoka or OnCloud, try for one that’s white or neutral. 2- Honor where you’re at! Style isn’t a pass/fail subject. You have to be able to actually live your life and your clothes should serve YOU. So having shoes that make it possible to live with less pain is PART of your personal style right now. Wear them with gratitude and confidence as much as you can and you’ll be golden!!

This is the number one request in my community- what basics do you need to build a wardrobe that actuates serves YOU.
These are the 15 items I use most often to create outfits I love over and over again. They work amazingly well mixed and matched among themselves, and are equally versatile when bringing new pieces in. They are my workhorses. My go-tos. The foundation of my fully FUNctional closet!

Notes:
• Beatles tee - I recommend the men’s fit in your regular size and choosing white for the color
• Ecco sneakers- these will be tight on the first wear. Choose your regular size. I recommend white.
• Button-down shirts- if you’re big busted, consider sizing up or choosing a style suited to your bust line. The Gal chambray is perfectly relaxed at your true size for small to regular bust lines.
• Choose a skirt in a color that works with your current clothes.
• The cream loafers run a bit large, so consider going down a half size.
• Chelsea boots run a bit small. They’ll typically stretch, but you won’t regret going up a half size, either.
• Choose the gauze white button-down if you get uncomfortable in button-downs. The fabric is thinner. Otherwise, a structured white button-down is my recommendation.
• If the Ribcage denim doesn’t work well for your body, try a curvy fit subtle barrel jean or a slightly wider leg jean

I’m cheering for you!

Which combo is working for you? I think I’m loving the red heels and red coat!

This outfit is so dang fun and would be so perfect for a Valentine’s Day dinner with your person. Maybe you should send this to them as a lil hinty hint! 😘

💁🏻‍♀️📝 BIG SISTER STYLE TOOL (NOT RULE):

• When styling an outfit, it can be really fun to think about “conversations” your outfit can have. Balance between top and bottom or some kind of reference point that calls back to another part of the outfit.

• Don’t underestimate the power of a great lip! The @maybelline SuperStay matte lipstick will last all the way through dinner. And at under $10, it’s a game changer! Color is PIONEER

I’m cheering for you!

Realistic vacation capsule for the North Shore of Oahu!

You don’t have to spend a fortune on resort wear for vacation, especially if you’re traveling somewhere with a super casual vibe! Everything here works with my real life back home AND feels elevated enough from my enjoyment on vacation.

#LTKTravel #LTKSaleAlert #LTKFindsUnder100

I really do recommend sizing down, but I know that’s scary!! Read the reviews and decide for yourself????

Also also also, don’t sleep on the Colette cropped wide legs- they’re on mega-sale, too! I recommend your true size on those. (I’m grabbing the pointe knit ones finally!)

Okay, send this to your friends who need some freaking COOL, COMFY pants that they can wear winter, spring, summer, and fall.

💁🏻‍♀️📝 BIG SISTER STYLE TOOL (NOT RULE):

• These look great with a pointed toe boot or even the Chelsea boot and cool socks.

• Try them with an oversized hoodie or sweatshirt and sneakers.

• An elevated better than basic top gets a new vibe with these and a pair of loafers.

#LTKMostLoved #LTKFindsUnder100 #LTKSaleAlert

Target in-store try on!

The bottoms were true to size for me. The baby-doll tee was definitely a snug fit at my true size.

I loved the cargo pants!

#LTKFindsUnder50 #LTKOver40 #LTKTravel

Harper Wilde NAILED IT with this workout set! The color, the fit, and the breath ability!

I hiked 3 miles without tugging and pulling or getting overly heated. This one is a winner! (I’m in an XS)

Vacation outfits you’ll wear at home, too!

#LTKStyleTip #LTKTravel #LTKOver40

Vacation doesn't have to mean a whole new wardrobe or floral dresses every day. Especially in Hawaii. The island vibes are chill, casual, and easy to achieve with things you'll wear at home, too.

#LTKStyleTip #LTKSwim #LTKTravel

✔️Warm enough for breezes and post-swimming chills
✔️Breezy so I don't get too hot
✔️Easy to wear with regular clothes
✔️ Cute!

I love a chunky knit sweater as a swim cover up!

#LTKSwim #LTKStyleTip #LTKTravel

If you’re a sensory issue girlie (hi! Same!), let me hold your hand and change your travel life.

The Izzie pull on barrel pant and a relaxed sweatshirt is FOREVER more comfortable than a lounge set.

Relaxed, elastic waist, loose at the thigh, and layered for weather. Perfection. I’ll die on this hill.

Fit notes:
SIZE DOWN in the pants! I promise.

#LTKOver40 #LTKTravel #LTKStyleTip

I can’t quit these jeans from Old Navy!

They’re making a long winter feel a little brighter and more fun.

Typical Old Navy sizing, meaning I order one size down from what I buy other places!

The sweater is a men’s large!

Shoes are true to size-ish. If your heels slip out when you order, go down a half size!

#LTKFindsUnder50 #LTKShoeCrush #LTKStyleTip

But are you having fun????

Getting dressed is pretty much a non-negotiable, so why not have a little fun with it? You’ll feel more confident AND teach your brain that you’re a person in your life who matters!

My exact loafers are nearly sold out, but the alternative listed is TERRIFIC. Maybe better?

Cream loafers, camel bag, gingham socks, chambray shirt, cropped pants, sweater vest, spring outfit, outfit ideas, easy outfits

You’re truly going to love this dress. The colors are incredibly vibrant. The fit is DREAMY (I’d consider sizing down, especially if you’re in between sizes). And it’s over 50% off, making this high end dress under $55!

💁🏻‍♀️📝 BIG SISTER STYLE TOOL (NOT RULE):
• A dress like this does so much heavy lifting in the style department, but you can amp it up even more with a gorgeous heeled shoe in a vibrant color and a great lipstick! (This one is Maybelline SuperStay matte in Pioneer.)

At this price, you might want to grab a few colors.

I’m cheering for you!

Two gorgeous outfits from closet basics!

I loved the leopard print skirt paired with a black tee and leather jacket with knee high boots.

And then to be able to change right from the skirt to comfy barrel pants was a 10/10!

Pink and red with florals for Valentine’s Day! Wear this for date night, for your Galentine’s party, or for Sunday services!

I highly recommend going up at least one size from your typical - maybe two if you’re bigger in the bust.

When Pumiey contacted me to ask if I’d like to try their layering tees, I immediately agreed because I bought and have loved the bodysuit version for months. There’s a good reason these are one of the most viral pieces on Amazon!

💁🏻‍♀️📝 BIG SISTER STYLE TOOL (NOT RULE):

• Layers make every outfit more interesting. The high neck on this tee makes these perfect under sweaters and creeks.

• Let the compression material be your best friend and pair this with a sleek satin skirt.

• Play with contrasts! The oversized puffer vest with the fitted tee is an easy combination that adds instant interest to a basic outfit. AND it keeps you warm!

Give these a try. You’re really going to love them.

I’m cheering for you!

If you want loungewear to be part of your style rotation, some thoughtful accessory choices can take them from just rolled out of bed to NYC street style.

💁🏻‍♀️📝 BIG SISTER STYLE TOOL (NOT RULE):

• A wool overcoat has the biggest impact on your outfit in this scenario! Choose a long one in a complimentary color for the best payoff.

• Baseball hats are elite when employed correctly! Do your hair. Put on a little makeup. Add a well-shaped hat and you’re the effortlessly cool mom in the pickup line!

I’m cheering for you!

Essentials for a 15 minute morning routine.
This routine doesn’t include makeup, but even that takes just a few minutes when you’ve cared for your skin!

HAIR
• Boar bristle brush
• Hair serum
• Curling Iron

SKIN
• Vitamin C
• Sunscreenn

#LTKStyleTip #LTKBeauty #LTKOver40

Build a nighttime routine that makes it easy to get ready quickly!

My nighttime essentials:

HAIR

• Boar Hair Brush (distributes oil from the scalp to the ends)
• Dry oil (keeps ends healthy without weighing them down)
• Silk scrunchies (secures the bun without damaging hair)
• Silk hair bonnet (absorbs excess oil and prevents hair damage while sleeping)

SKIN
• Red light (has drastically improved my skin texture and brightness)
• Retinol (dermatologist recommended)
• Skin Bae serum (reduces redness and blemishes and keeps skin moisturized and smooth)
• Eye cream

Chunky sneakers are essential to a great shoe collection! The NB 327s are my personal favorite, but I also regularly reach for my Converse and Nikes, too!

#LTKStyleTip #LTKShoeCrush

A roundup of terrific animal print skirts! When shopping animal print, I look for low contrast between the colors and shades that work well with things in my current closet. The AE slip skirt is the gold standard, in my book. Grab it if your size is available! (Currently 25% off, no code needed)

#LTKSaleAlert #LTKFindsUnder50 #LTKStyleTip

A great wool overcoat instantly upgrades sweatsuits and matching sets. This is my favorite New Yorker style hack!

Mine is a vintage find, but I’ve rounded up some great ones at different price points.

I prefer 100% wool (the Aritzia marked as “exact product” is the best quality/warmth choice) or as close to that as possible for the warmth factor, but do what your budget allows!

#LTKSeasonal #LTKOver40 #LTKStyleTip

Save this one for the next time you feel stuck getting dressed.

I took my regular size in both the button-down and vest.
Pants- I recommend sizing down one full size.
Loafers - I recommend going down one half to one whole size

(Pants are sold out in this color, but any of the Izzie Relaxed Barrel pants fit similarly and are fantastic, comfortable, interesting bottoms!)

💁🏻‍♀️📝 BIG SISTER STYLE TOOL (NOT RULE):

• Layer a white shirt and cream sweater, then switch out your typical jeans for pants in a fun silhouette or color! Throw in a fun sock and shoe and you’ve got a low effort, high impact outfit!

• Wear this to a lunch date, doctor appointment, or church activity. You’ll feel comfy and confident with minimal effort.

If quick ideas like this one are helpful, leave a 🙌🏼🙌🏾 in the comments.

The Athleta Endless High-rise Pant sits dead, bullseye center in the pajama/workwear Venn diagram.

Tailored like a trouser, made from yoga pants material and with a yoga waistband. Oh, but with POCKETS.

It’s perfectly at home with a button down and sweater vest AND with your favorite hoodie

#LTKStyleTip #LTKOver40 #LTKActive

Basics paired with animal print are a perfect match!
I am loving this chambray shirt and sweater vest combo - the leopard skirt gives texture without pulling the focus from my face and the cream loafers give a cool finished touch, tying the top of the outfit to the bottom

#LTKSaleAlert #LTKStyleTip #LTKOver40

So many requests for this graphic tee and I’m so sad to report that it is from Abercrombie earlier this year and is SOLD OUT. 😭
I’ve rounded up some other options that have similar vibes and fit to this one.
Main things to look for if you want to style this way- think boxy, long, oversized, but still fits in the shoulder.
Some tees will be listed as “oversized” in the listing. I typically take my true size when that’s the case. Otherwise, I consider going up 2 sizes from my normal and see how the shoulders fit.
We aren’t trying to look like we played dress up in our dad’s closet.
It can feel like a tricky needle to thread, but you only have to find one perfect oversized tee and you’re set, so keep trying!

#LTKOver40 #LTKMidsize #LTKStyleTip

💁🏻‍♀️📝 BIG SISTER STYLE TOOL (NOT RULE):

• On Instagram, we are going to spend the week looking at all the ways you can rethink animal print so it becomes a basic in your closet.

• A great place to start is finding a bold color you feel GREAT in. Make that the top of your outfit, then play with leopard as an accent. Either in a belt, earrings, a skirt, or jeans!

• Consider a more subdued animal print like the one shown here. It has fewer colors and less contrast, which makes it a little easier to pair with tops!

• Don’t forget to think about your shoes! They’ll change with each top you choose, but try a few pair and trust your eyes. You’ll be able to see what works as you experiment.

I’m cheering for you!

My nighttime routine varies based on what skincare I’m currently hyper fixating on, but recently, I’ve been going back to products that offer great moisture benefits at affordable price points. I’m learning that I’d rather spend my skincare money on Botox every six months, as that has the most impact dollar for dollar.
Of course, you don’t have to do any of that! And a good skincare routine at night is plenty, as long as you wear sunscreen daily!

#Skincare #skincareroutine

#LTKOver40 #LTKFindsUnder50

Red and leopard are such a killer combination. I love this look for a Valentine’s Day dinner or night at the theatre!
The bow heels add a really whimsical touch, while the gold and black chandelier earrings and gold bracelet stack tie everything together
