My Collections

A BEAUTIFUL SHOE As sandal season wanes, the closed toe shoes emerge. My go-to for the last several fall seasons has been a loafer. But there’s been a shift in the visual balance and a more tapered, perhaps feminine, shape has emerged. I tested the waters last year with The Row Park pump and appreciated the versatility of the toe profile with both skirts and wide leg pants. When I saw the Christian Louboutin low heel black pumps, I immediately thought of The Row Park pump and had to make sure you all saw it too. The toe shape peeking out from a wide leg jean or pant is the gamechanger in making that silhouette more flattering. The trend in shoes continues to move towards a slimmer profile with a minimal sole. #LTKSeasonal #LTKStyleTip
NORDSTROM ANNIVERSARY SALE FIND: On a recent trip to Portugal in May, a padded black bomber became the surprising hero. I loved its sporty vibe that gave my wardrobe a contemporary edge. I only wished it wasn’t so heavy. Note to self…find a lightweight style to wear in warmer weather. A contender popped up online, but I wasn’t sold based on how it was styled. I scrolled on. In store, I spotted it again and saw its relevance. The slightly textured sheen, subtle interesting details, lots of pockets - it was a definite winner I wouldn’t have considered if I hadn’t seen it in person. I purchased it in navy (so dark it almost reads black). It’s available in ivory too which I’m seriously considering. When I love an item, I buy doubles, and this may be one of those special pieces. #LTKSeasonal #LTKSaleAlert #LTKStyleTip
LOOKS
One of my in flight uniforms is topping off a very basic ensemble with a stylish coat or jacket. I love having one with me for comfort plus it ups the style factor even if the rest of the outfit is so-so.Same pieces with a shorter coat and sneakers: Chloe peacoat, Hogan sneakers, Vince pants (I also like these from Theory), Vince top (on sale), Moncler sweater #LTKStyleTip #LTKSeasonal #LTKTravel
THE UNIFORM Wearing Nili Lotan jacket. The Paige is my favorite style. Goes with everything! Blue may be sold out but olive green and an ecru stripe are equally good! Mother Denim jeans - my go to. Universally flattering. Prefer this silhouette with a mid heel shoe. Love the mini Flamenco bag from Loewe. Extremely versatile with the option of a short chain strap, a long leather strap or neither for use as a clutch . #LTKSeasonal #LTKSaleAlert #LTKStyleTip
FAVORITE TRAVEL FRIENDLY PANTS For any of you tempted by the travel friendly Jet Set pant from Frame, it’s on sale. I’m wearing the Jet Set Crop here in a size 1 (they’re sized 0,1,2). I also have the longer version of the same pant. These styles, plus others in Frame’s Travel Collection, are 25% off until 3/30 using code TRAVEL25. #LTKSeasonal #LTKsalealert #LTKtravel
THE CLASSICS
NORDSTROM ANNIVERSARY SALE PREVIEW My fashion picks include one of my favorite Max Mara insulated jackets I’d want for travel. The fabric lends itself to day or night activities and the color is beautiful. I also love Max Mara’s classic double face wool wrap coat (not pictured) which is $1,100 and will go up to $1650 after the sale. The Frame jeans I’ve been wearing non-stop the last few months are part of the sale and I may get another in the dark wash…they’re that great! My sneaker wardrobe needs a refresh and a retro inspired style will do the trick. Love these from Vince in black or cream. I have the Vince crew in camel and it’s a go-to for silhouette, neckline and weight. I would get tons of wear from one in black or white. Out of all the stripe sweaters I have in my closet, none are sleeveless. The Rag & Bone top is an easy addition to layer under jackets. And a classic poplin shirt dress from Lafayette round out my picks. #LTKStyleTip #LTKSaleAlert

PACKING TIPS
Elevating the Ordinary I love tech ring jackets. I wear my OURA ring every day and wouldn't mind dressing it up on occasion. Suzanne Kalan has several gorgeous options in the brand's signature aesthetic in both mini and midi sizes. I'm also fond of a single eternity band as a simpler but equally chic statement. #LTKSeasonal #LTKActive #LTKStyleTip
Elevating the Ordinary I may never purchase a pair of black flip flops this season, even though they've been on my radar. They're incredibly versatile and very much in style, but I've reached fatigue with the overwhelming availability across price points that run the gamut. I'll probably pass on the basics now that I've found a more elevated style from Tom Ford - so simple in softly braided suede with a delicate gold T-bar adding major style points. They're a notch above the rest. #LTKSeasonal #LTKStyleTip
