I’m so excited to finally wear my denim jacket. This season it’s all about jean jackets with embellishments. I picked one with studding all over the top. Love the retro look from years ago. Jean jackets take in an edgy street-style look. Pair with anything you own!

A well-chosen handbag can effortlessly tie together your entire look, adding a touch of sophistication and flair. Right now designer bags are so on trend. Anything from Balenciaga, Bottega’ Veneta, YSL, Chanel and Chloe is sure to make an impression.

I’m wearing gold huggies with mini pave diamonds which I adore. When it comes to jewelry you should have fun, mix it up and always “wear it your way”.
The current trend is multiple piercings rather than the traditional way which is one huggie on each ear. For a cool vibe wear two or three huggies side by side on one ear. I love this look which I’m sure is here to stay. It’s hip, edgy, and chic all rolled into one great style.

Getting Original Sambas or the adidas Original Gazelle Shoes (sambas with a slight platform) has become difficult. It’s the most sought after shoes. As fast as they’re available the timeless sneaker is sold out. I started my samba collection with the most sought after sneakers. The black and white samba with the three iconic white stripes was introduced in 1950 and known as the soccer shoe. The khaki samba with the light blue stripes is a recent collaboration between adidas and Pharrell Williams. Whatever samba you choose you’ll be in the most trending and stylish reimagined sneakers!

Polka dots are the epitome of timeless fashion, but this classic style feels on-trend at the moment. The latest designs are elegant, playful, and sure to attract attention. Heels and swimsuits provide especially enjoyable opportunities to bring polka dots to the forefront. What better way to make a statement!

No tutu’s necessary. We’re so excited that leather ballet flats are still the shoe to own. I wear ballet flats all year round except when it’s snowing. They’re so easy to wear especially if you get the right size! You probably need to go up at least a half size. Sometimes with a rounded toe you can feel your toes right at the edge. It’s definitely a chic fashion staple for this upcoming season. Ballet flats look amazing with jeans, cropped pants, barrel leg pants, long skirts and more!

#LTKstyletip #LTKshoecrush

Now, it’s time to experiment with a more daring, yet surprisingly refined concept: barrel-leg jeans also known as horseshoe or balloon shaped jeans. These jeans deliver the ideal blend of comfort and style with its exaggerated pant legs.
What better way to pair this style jean with Autry’s low top sneakers. Pairs perfectly with a tee, tank or cropped jacket.

So many women are drawn to Bottega Veneta’s Knot Intrecciato clutch. It’s Knot detailing gives a chic bag an appealingly edgy look. The evening bag boasts woven velvet, lambskin, satin or leather with python trim. It is Italian made (of course!). It comes in just the right colors (love the shimmering gold color), and it measures in at 5 inches x 7 inches x 2.5 inches. The python trim is decidedly understated – a purposeful design choice, one that separates clutches like this from other bags. The Khaite coat we just had to have!

Level up your shades with an undeniably pair of stylish sunglasses. The designer sunglasses I’m sharing are the very definition of effortlessly cool. Whether cat eye, rectangular, oval, geometric or embellished with studs or logos their status sets them apart from all others.

Probably one of the most distinctive sandals year after year is the infamous comfortable Birkenstocks accented with the iconic buckled straps. Birkenstocks are one of those shoes that never goes out of style. Perfect for every season except winter unless you’re traveling to a tropical climate. Birkenstocks are the mainstay of comfortable and easy to wear footwear!

In this world of luxury fashion, trends come and go, but some styles leave a lasting impact such as the belt bag. There’s nothing more versatile than a belt bag. You can wear it around your waist, your fanny or sling it over your shoulder or wear crossbody. Having just been on crutches wearing a belt bag was a game changer. Thankfully this was the perfect option to a handbag. Made my life so much easier. I have no desire to use a handbag. Eventually I will. For the time being the belt bag is happy buckled around my waist.

In the realm of fashion’s ever-evolving landscape, a few trends stand out like a beacon of edgy and contemporary allure: bold jackets, denim, leather and silver tone studs.
First up is my spring jacket by khaite in a stunning camel color. The jacket features a boxy style, exaggerated shoulders and sleeves and a swing style back.
Baggy jeans that sweep the floor and denim jackets are number one for your daily casual style.
Leather jackets, boots and bags are right up there embellished with silver tone studs. All inspired by the 90’s.

#LTKshoecrush #LTKstyletip #LTKSeasonal

I was so excited to receive my cropped spring jacket. I’d been debating whether to get the camel or the black. I always err on the safer color so I decided to take a leap faith and go for the camel. I’m really glad I did. I can’t wait to start wearing it.
Edgy stying with boxy shoulders, exaggerated sleeves and a swing back. Pairs with everything from jeans to trousers.

#LTKstyletip #LTKSeasonal

Are you ready to connect the dots?
Did you know the polka dot print dominated in the 1980s? Do you think it will dominate in 2024? My research shows it’s a popular trend that’s back.
What’s old is new again!

#LTKshoecrush #LTKSeasonal #LTKitbag

Jean jackets and studs are hsving a major moment. It’s one of this season’s hottest looks! Jean jackets take on an edgy street-style look with oversized studs inspired from the 90’s. Remember..what’s old is new again. Pair with leather pants, jeans or jean skirts .

It’s time to toss the winter puffer jacket and add a puffer vest to your wardrobe. My vest is a collab between Nike and Yohji Yamamoto. March and early April are still puffer weather. These are easy to wear pieces. Elevate this style with an irresistible cashmere sweater in neutral tones.

#LTKstyletip #LTKSeasonal

Yes, I love hats and wear them every season!
I bought this raffia bucket-hat two years ago for spring and summer. It’s still front and center on many sites featuring Prada. Will keep your face from the blazing sun. It truly shades my face along with sunscreen. Spring is on its way and the perfect time to step it up and shop my straw bucket-hat collection.

Army green bags, shoes, sweaters
and accessories have a well established cult following. Earth tones are forever colors! They are an easy unfussy colors that work with so much in your wardrobe!

#LTKshoecrush #LTKitbag #LTKstyletip

When I recently mentioned the biggest color trends being Brown, Pink and shades of Garnet I forget to mention Army Green which has been one of my faves for years. It’s timeless and can be worn for season to come.
Love and want Khaite’s velvet suede boots which are also available in chocolate brown. I’d pair with my Loewe bag, sweater or pants in the same tone. They look with jeans. Let’s start shopping!

#LTKitbag #LTKshoecrush #LTKSeasonal

How much do we love this look? Stunning white shift with organza layering paired with two gorgeous woven leather bags. This is the outfit to rock to a party, wedding or just out to special dinner. Bags are day to night.

#LTKSeasonal #LTKstyletip #LTKitbag

I recently posted about the latest color trends: pink 🩷brown 🤎and shades of garnet ❤️ I’m sharing loafers , boots, pumps, sandals and more in these trending colors. Hope you find a style and color that suits you!

#LTKSeasonal #LTKshoecrush #LTKSpringSale

Pink, brown and garnet are the newest colors for spring. I’m on it! Hence my timeless brown cashmere sweater which I bought this past fall. Treat yourself to a luxurious cashmere sweater which will surely compliment your stylish wardrobe, day or night! Experiencing a color you love is totally cool!

We are quickly approaching white-shirt navy-blazer season which has been my staple for as long as I can remember! A white shirt goes with just about everything in your closet. I’m sharing tons of staple shirts that you’ll love!
Have fun shopping with Betsy!

This is my most favorite palette next to black. I’m very comfortable in neutrals.
The pieces I’m most drawn to are cashmere sweaters, cream pants, sock sneakers and a designer bag that matches everything in my closet. These pieces are timeless. Details are not even needed with this silhouette. Do you like this palette or do you prefer color?

#LTKitbag #LTKshoecrush #LTKSeasonal

Let the cool season begin with a few of my favorite casual go-to pieces. I’m having fun with this edgy style. The slouchy jeans, the baseball cap, Pharrell William’s sambas (for adidas) and the overcoat create a serious street style look. Can’t forget the Dior lip oil.

#LTKstyletip #LTKshoecrush #LTKSeasonal

Whichever style you choose it’s always important to possess your own vibe. I love having my own distinctive style...beanies, cashmere sweaters, sneakers, lipgloss, sunglasses and a few piercings. I’m always elated when people DM me to incorporate some of my pieces into their look! That’s the best compliment in the fashion world!

#LTKSeasonal #LTKMostLoved #LTKstyletip

Although I love my cashmere sweaters my daily look is mostly cool sweatshirts paired with leggings, joggers, or midi skirts. I create my own style but comfy is on the top of my list. I’m always wearing a trusty beanie!

#LTKMostLoved #LTKSeasonal #LTKstyletip

Sometimes you just want to wear a fall-spring jacket in the winter. There are times you don’t want to wear a puffer which can be cumbersome when driving or running errands. Love the attached fringe scarf…one less step when getting ready to leave the house. Best is you can layer a sweater or two under this fab jacket..

#LTKstyletip #LTKMostLoved #LTKSeasonal

Camel bags in all different tones are my very favorite. They go with everything.
Always looking chic and elevates any outfit. Check out Veronica Beard’s “Goody” bag. Just love the name.

#LTKstyletip #LTKMostLoved #LTKitbag

I’m all bundled up to get my newspapers and packages. 📦 I love getting packages although I don’t always remember whats in them. So it’s a surprise! It’s still beanie and shearling coat season. I’m wearing my latest Max Mara shearling jacket with great detailing on the sides. The perfect jacket and beanie are sure to elevate your style.

#LTKstyletip #LTKSeasonal #LTKMostLoved

Sharing some great sweaters for spring but you can still wear them now! It’s sweater weather! Always love a cream palette that goes with almost everything in your wardrobe. I’ve paired with army green cargos for a wow look! This comfy sweater will quickly become a treasured part of your wardrobe.

#LTKstyletip #LTKSeasonal #LTKMostLoved

I’ve been eyeing some of my daughter’s belts. I’ve found a few that I’d like to borrow! Now that I’m starting to wear jeans more I could definitely use this belt featuring eye-catching silver hardware.
Wearing leggings most of the time I forgot how great belts look. Can’t wait to buckle up!

#LTKfindsunder100 #LTKMostLoved #LTKstyletip

Every season jeans styles are so unpredictable. The silhouette is recycled every season. They go from a tapered leg to cropped to a baggy leg. There are still many choices if the latest trend is not for you. Jeans are an everyday staple and you can always wear it your way.

Looks like I’m knee deep In snow! We still have time to take our winter vacation and it’s not going to be skiing! I think we’re ready for some sun even though I love winter fashion,
