Bet you didn’t know I could talk so fast! I actually increased the video speed 🤣

Well, I tried very hard to pack for a two week trip in a carry-on and personal bag, but I just can’t make it work.
Epic failure!
One week yes, two weeks no way.
But I did give it my best try!

What to wear when visiting
Ogunquit, Maine? 🌊

@tinitravelsblog and I kept it simple and casual with easy pieces, comfy shoes for wandering the shops and Marginal Way, and outfits that can go from lobster rolls to cocktails. 🦞🍸

#LTKOver40 #LTKSeasonal

I am so ready for warm weather… but for now, I’ll happily take sunshine pouring through the windows ☀️

Meanwhile, it’s going to be 80° here on Wednesday… and I’ll be landing in Ireland where it’s 50° and raining ☔️🍀
Timing? Not exactly my strong suit 😂

But let’s talk about what is working—this set from @flaxmaker_swim. It’s that perfect “is it swimwear or is it an outfit?” situation… and the answer is YES.

Pool ➝ lunch ➝ dinner… no outfit change required. We love a multitasker.

If you haven’t checked them out yet, consider this your sign 💦

I have a slight addiction to sets.

Here’s why:
1. I don’t have to think about putting pieces together (and at this stage of my life, it’s one less thing to stress about).
2. It looks like I tried way harder than I actually did — effortless but a no-brainer.
3. It’s the closest thing I can get to pajamas but still wear it in public and get compliments.
4. I can break up the pieces and wear them in different ways.

Tell me I’m not the only one with a “set situation” 😏

my nose looks a little red, it’s because I have a terrible head cold. 🤧

I always get excited to open up new @julievos pieces. #julievospartner
Their new spring collection is absolutely gorgeous.✨

My favorite is the green necklace…no the pink heart…no the white earrings. 🤷🏼‍♀️
I can’t make up my mind! How about you?

Let’s style two amazing skirts that are under $100 and can be worn in the cold weather and warm! Dress them up or down. They are both incredible.

#LTKOver40 #LTKSaleAlert #LTKgrwm

If these dresses had arrived before I packed for Palm Springs, they absolutely would have come with me. Although honestly… the weather was so cold I basically lived in sweatshirts and jeans.

I love that they transition so easily from winter to spring — boots to sandals, even sneakers 👟

The fabrics are super lightweight too, which makes them perfect to toss in a suitcase without a second thought.

And the best part? They’re both under $40 🎉

It’s chilly here in Palm Springs so I added boots and a leather jacket to my sleeveless dress. This belt is a new favorite!

#LTKSaleAlert #LTKTravel #LTKOver40

Well, I’m in California and the skirt came with me. It’s so versatile!
I just wish the weather was better. It’s been cold and rainy!

By the way, the skirt is under $25

Choosing comfort in a world that tells women to suffer for style is a quiet act of rebellion.

I’m in the middle of a huge closet cleanup. If you are on @substack I wrote a piece on it.

As a former wardrobe stylist, I’ve revamped hundreds of closets, but of course it’s always harder to be objective when it’s your own!

But I found so many great clothes that I haven’t worn in forever- like this two piece skirt set. I can’t wait to wear it again.

Don’t forget that you can break up sets (pants or skirts! ) We often get stuck only wearing the pieces together.

I hope this video gives you some ideas!

Are you a denim girl? So comfortable right? Plus you can dress denim up or down!

It’s officially holiday party season! Are you going to any? 🥂🎁

If you think that a metallic skirt can only be worn to a fancy event, think again! Tone it down with a leather jacket or bling it up! I love this one from @whbm 🩶 #whbmpartner

#LTKSeasonal #LTKHoliday #LTKSaleAlert

I have to wear a winter white outfit for an @uncommonthreadsboutique staff photo on Wednesday and this look from @lyssenewyork will be perfect! ❄️🤍❄️🤍
#lyssepartner

🛑But wait for the second look too! It’s equally as good!

Both pants have elastic waist so I can have extra dessert! 😂

The first sweater has the most gorgeous rhinestone embellishment—and it’s not itchy!

The metallic shirt is incredibly soft and comfortable. You can even wear it open as a jacket!
