Make sure you size down a whole size and these shoes I typically wear an eight and had to return and I got a seven instead and then I’m wearing a small and both the pants and the shirt and I’ve linked all of the exact jewelry for you.

I’m wearing a size 26 in my jeans, which is true to size I am wearing a size small in the cashmere tea and a small in the denim jacket super comfortable great for a short flight when you went to land and just hit the ground running.

I sized down to an extra small this time and I like the more fitted field. This set has on me and then pairing it on a loyal day with just a little flag sweater for a layering moment. That helps give it a little bit more interest also is nice when going into chili restaurants to keep warm and I’m linking several other options of these blue FENDI sandals that I got a few years ago

Lake Como has officially entered my European summer daydreams 🇮🇹✨

Think terracotta villas draped in bougainvillea, boat rides across glassy water, long lunches overlooking the lake, sunset aperitivos, and the kind of effortless luxury Italians do better than anyone. I rounded up the best hotels, restaurants, villages, and experiences to save for your next trip—plus outfit inspiration inspired by the timeless Lake Como aesthetic.

From linen dresses and elegant swimwear to raffia bags and oversized sunglasses, this edit is all about dressing for la dolce vita.

I’m wearing a small. Summer style should feel as easy as the season itself ☀️

This Saks edit is built for movement — from café mornings and coastal dinners to market strolls and golden-hour plans that turn into late nights. Think crisp whites, breezy crochet, cobalt blues, polka dots, eyelet lace, woven bags, straw hats, and sandals that work from cobblestones to the beach without missing a beat.

Effortless, a little romantic, and endlessly photogenic — exactly the kind of wardrobe I want to live in all summer long.

In partnership with Saks Fifth Avenue. ✨
