Matching sets, but make them elevated ✨
These are my go-to pieces when I want to look polished with zero extra effort. Think beautiful fabrics, flattering fits, and silhouettes that work together and separately. Wear them as a set for an instant outfit, or mix each piece back into your everyday wardrobe. I’m wearing a small in each set.

10 pairs of denim, all in a size 26 👖✨
For reference, I’m 5'9", and this is a perfect example of why denim fit can vary so much—even in the same size. Most were great, one was a hard no (yes, the last pair 😂). I’m sharing real try-ons so you can see how different jeans fit on a taller frame. Every pair is numbered 1–10 and linked on my LTK to make shopping easy.

Found the fab swimsuit of the season in Palm Beach… plus two chic cover-ups and the cutest sunnies I snagged from the hotel gift shop. (I LOVE a great hotel gift shop moment!) 🌴✨

If you have a long torso like me, size up in your one-piece for the best fit. Resort days = made.
