Sometimes you just need a few really good pieces.

The Nordstrom 6 Drop is exactly that — six stylist-approved staples for fall.

I’m wearing a few of my favorites here — that plaid coat has been on repeat, and this velvet embroidered bag is my current obsession.

Easy, wearable, and elevated. That’s my outfit formula.

Hi! Just wanted to give you a little introduction to who I am and what I do! I’ve been a professional personal stylist for the last 13 years, 10 of which I worked for Nordstrom. I’ve dressed hundreds or maybe even thousands of women over the years! I edit closets and I help people pack! I also love sharing the fantastic things I find in fashion beauty, and a little bit of home! Thank you so much for being here and let me know how I can help!

OOTD: a knit maxi dress, dress coat, belt, earrings, faux crocs knee boots, a red lip & scarf for color, and a sexy scent.

I got SO MUCH for SO LITTLE during J.Crew Factory’s 50% off sale! I got sweaters, a skirt, barrel jeans, booties and more…so many outfits, so little time.

Everything I’m wearing IS TTS!

#LTKStyleTip #LTKSaleAlert #LTKOver40

Quince has the best basic sweaters! The quality, style and affordability are HARD TO BEAT! Here are my latest recommendations. I’m wearing a small in all of them TTS. First two are cotton, and the last one is a luxurious cashmere.

#LTKFindsUnder100 #LTKOver40 #LTKSeasonal

Girls night out or date night-this flirty little dress in dark florals looks great bear legged with boots, but you could also do a sheer black tight if you’re more comfortable. Add a blazer over your shoulders if it’s chilly. Gloss, then go.

#LTKOver40 #LTKSaleAlert #LTKStyleTip

Silky ruffles will perk from the lapel of this plaid oversized coat. Black wide leg jeans and a soft taupe shoulder bag finish this pretty outfit.

#LTKOver40 #LTKSaleAlert #LTKStyleTip

I fell for this soft minty floral cardigan from Rails. It stood out amongst all the browns, burgundys and deep autumnal shades in Saks. A cropped trench with high waisted wide leg jeans make the perfect pair. Light boots add some flair and this navy crossbody will work with all your denim looks. Go for it. Saks is offering a “Spend More Get More Off” deal thru 10/11/25!

#LTKOver40 #LTKStyleTip #LTKSaleAlert

Everything I tried on today is 50% off (yes, really).

These sweaters feel designer-soft, the barrel jeans are the perfect relaxed fit, and the loafers? Classic forever.

A few easy fall wins, all under budget — just how I like it.

I’m wearing a small (TTS) in everything but the tan hoodie. That’s medium (but a small would be better).

Here’s my top 15 tried and true beauty products that are on sale during the Amazon Prime Event!

#LTKSaleAlert #LTKOver40 #LTKBeauty

Plaid-but make it fashion. This weekend we went to an event in the country. I live in the country and certainly appreciate its beauty but I don’t want to LOOK too country. I paired my mandatory plaid flannel with baggy jeans and western-inspired boots, not classic cowboy boots. When I go “western”, I like small doses and that’s the modern, more fashionable way to do it as a stylist. Now feel free to add a bit of plaid to your wardrobe this fall!

Any shirt or sweater (including my plaid shirt, BTW) is BUY ONE, GET ONE 50% OFF WITH CODE HALFOFF for 2 days only!

#LTKSeasonal #LTKStyleTip #LTKFindsUnder100

J.Crew just made fall dressing very easy… and almost everything I tried is 40% off.

I popped into J.Crew to see what’s new for fall, and friends… I couldn’t resist. From sharp jackets to polished denim, effortless tops, and even a dress that feels like it was made for crisp October evenings — these are the kind of staples that slip right into your closet and stay.

Classic, versatile, and now 40% off — it’s the perfect moment to refresh your lineup. I added a few more must-haves to the list as well!

Shopping with a tall slim client today. She had a very specific list of things she needed. Here’s what we found at Nordstrom! Black slim jeans (model’s own that we found in the Rack)

The Effortless Outfit That Always Works Classic OOTD Staples

Today’s #OOTD is my go-to formula for first impressions:
✨ Dolman sleeve sweater (Quince)
✨ Katie trouser jeans (Fidelity)
✨ Block heel pumps (Ally Shoes)
✨ Gold earrings + RMS Beauty glow

Simple. Polished. Effortless.
The kind of outfit that works for client meetings, coffee dates, or anywhere you need instant confidence.

💡 Pro tip: Build your wardrobe around classic staples—they’ll always carry you.
Use code INSTYLEWITHSTACEY for 10% off your first order any pair of Ally shoes!

As a stylist, I hear it all the time: “Beautiful shoes always hurt.” But here’s the truth—they don’t have to.

ALLY re-engineered heels, flats, and boots with a podiatric surgeon so they’re chic, timeless, and actually wearable all day. Think: cushioning exactly where women need it most (heel, arch, toes) + handcrafted luxury leather.

And because every woman’s foot is different, they offer 18 sizes, 4 widths, and 2 calf fits. That inclusivity is what makes the difference—you get style that feels like it was made just for you.

My best advice? Don’t settle. You deserve shoes that love your feet back. ✨

You’ve heard the horror stories about retinol, right? Let me tell you why that’s not the case anymore!

Retinol is the gold standard in skin repair -but maybe you’re nervous about trying it? We’ve all heard the retinol myths: it’s too harsh, only for night, only for “serious” wrinkles.

✨ The truth? @nakerybeauty SkinRepair Retinol Deep Wrinkle Serum changes the game. With encapsulated retinol + NAD+ Complex, it smooths, firms, and brightens without irritation. I have sensitive skin. I’ve been using it. I know.

Think: collagen support, smaller-looking pores, even tone — all gentle enough for daily use!

#LTKOver40 #LTKBeauty

This looks JUST LIKE the amazing $700 VB blazer. But this one is under $150 for BOTH the blazer and the removable hoodie insert (sold separately)!

I was shocked at how good the quality is for such a small portion of my wallet. Thanks, Quince, for helping me look like 1 million bucks on a budget.

The blazer is true to size by the way. I’m wearing a size small and I’m typically a 4/6 and a 34DDD bust. Fits like a dream, no alterations necessary.
Those beautiful cap toe pumps are from Ally and you can use code INSTYLEWITHSTACEY for 10% off your first pair!

$700 Look for Less”

…and wait until you see the detail: this blazer isn’t just chic, it’s convertible thanks to the Quince dickey.”

Quiet luxury without the splurge. ✨
This blazer gives you the same polished tailoring you’d find in a $700 designer piece, for less. Bonus: the removable dickey makes it a true two-in-one investment. Wear it sharp for the boardroom or relaxed for weekend coffee—effortless style, endless options.

#LTKPetite #LTKStyleTip #LTKWorkwear

I’ve been living in loafers.

More elevated than a sneaker-more comfortable than a heel. I’m a personal stylist and loafers are on repeat for me lately. With cropped denim, a slim sock under trousers, wide legs, or even a dress—they just work. The trick? Proportions. Once you nail that balance, they feel like the most timeless shoe in your closet. 🖤

The brown leather loafers are from a company called Ally. They’re not linkable here on LTK, but let he know you’re interested and can send you a separate link!

#LTKStyleTip #LTKOver40 #LTKShoeCrush

Because not EVERY woman wants a wide leg/relaxed fit. I see you. It’s my JOB to help you be YOUR best self, and keep you current, nonetheless!

Seven clean, considered steps. One polished look that feels like you, only more luminous.
Merit is built around the idea that less can be more—when each piece is thoughtful.
Here’s how I used six clean staples to create a look that’s polished yet easy:
1. Skin that looks like skin (no heavy veil, just radiance). Shade 24
2. A hint of light and lift. Complexion Stick in Dune
3. A soft touch of color where it counts. Flush Balm in Beverly Hills
4. & 5. Eyes that open and define without drama. Solo Shadow in Nelson and Clean Lash mascara
6. A lip that feels like balm, wears like polish. Signature Lip in Milennial

And at the end? I show you how I take it all off with their new Double Cleanse—because the ritual should be as satisfying to undo as it is to apply.

Clean beauty, simplified.

The Paige Anessa-the Jean that looks good on everyone! When a client feels confident enough in her clothes to be filmed 🥰. These are the jeans from the N6 September Drop!

#LTKStyleTip #LTKOver40

I literally fell asleep and woke up, thinking about this nail polish. After coffee once the store opened, I jumped in the car and ran to pick up the last Coconut Shimmer in stock. And then I got a few more.

#LTKBeauty #LTKSeasonal

Anthropologie try-on! I headed to my local mall this weekend to get inspired. Anthro is having an online-only 30% off sale so I went to see what I could find and recommend.

I didn’t find many of the in-store pieces were reduced but had fun playing in all the pretty new pieces. I check .com when I got home and here’s what I’d suggest to my styling clients…

P.S. everything I shared today is true to size-a small or a 4!

One last hurrah for my white jeans and sandals. It’s 85 degrees. Summer went by too soon. I’m hanging on. Don’t rush me.

It’s never a wrong time to buy the right pair of white jeans. Haven’t been feeling especially confident lately in white denim, but these…these were good to me. And this tote-I used it all season long, perfect with my denim and beyond!

Date night and the Linganore Calico White was lovely and my date was 🔥. I’d get his number all over again.

Met a client for the first time to edit her closet. She complimented my outfit. Said she wished she could put something together like this…but she CAN! Took me 5 minutes! Here’s the breakdown. Oh…and my pants..LOVE these..are on sale.

#LTKFindsUnder100 #LTKPetite #LTKSaleAlert

Not every pair of jeans earns year-round closet space. 👖 These do. Which fit are you — ankle, crop, bootcut, or wide?

Fidelity has been perfecting denim for 20 years — the fit, the washes, the comfort. These aren’t tied to a season, they’re the jeans that work year-round: sandals in summer, boots in winter, blazers or tees, always in rotation.

Some jeans are a fling, a trend. These are forever pieces. They’ve earned a permanent spot in my closet — timeless, reliable, and always flattering.

Which Icon would you reach for?
