#RTRPartner

My first Rent the Runway shipment is here, and I planned every piece around something already on my calendar—from a happy hour collaboration and restaurant opening to Boston dinners and everything in between.

I’m especially excited to have more outfit variety for events, travel, and filming without buying something new every time.

Use code **RTRXJBROWN** for 60% off your first month through July 31.

Which piece should I wear first?

#RentTheRunway #RTRPartner #EventStyle #TravelStyle #FashionEditor

This entire event outfit cost $10—and after a little tailoring, no one will know.

I found it at McShane’s Exchange alongside a Brunello Cucinelli top, Rag & Bone leggings, a Ronny Kobo blouse, oversized J.Jill trousers, and a vintage leather dress by Ganni.

That’s what I love about secondhand shopping: it asks you to look beyond the current fit and see the potential. Great style is not always about buying new. Sometimes it is about preserving craftsmanship, reworking what already exists, and giving a piece a completely new life.

I’m taking the Criscione New York set to the tailor, then wearing it to an event in August.

Would you have spotted the potential?

The Wimbledon Edit 🎾

You don’t have to wear all white as a spectator, but Wimbledon style still has its own language: polished dresses, tailored separates, practical shoes, structured bags, and understated accessories.

I love the idea of a white or soft blue dress, but a Ralph Lauren-inspired sweater with trouser shorts feels just as appropriate—and a little more unexpected.

The goal isn’t to look like you’re playing tennis. It’s to look like you understand the occasion.

I linked the full edit in LTK, including dresses, separates, shoes, bags, sunglasses, and earrings at different price points.

Which look would you wear?

A little beauty mail just arrived. 💙✨

As someone who wears waterproof mascara almost every day, removing it without tugging or damaging my lashes is non-negotiable. Garnier’s Waterproof Micellar Cleansing Water is designed to dissolve makeup gently—no harsh rubbing required—and I love that it pairs with reusable Eco Pads for a more sustainable routine.

I’m excited to put this to the test and see if it lives up to the promise of “saving the lashes.” 👀

I’ll be sharing my honest thoughts after I’ve had a chance to use it for a few weeks. Have you tried Garnier Micellar Water before?

THE FALL INVESTMENT EDIT 🤍

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is full of tempting finds, but these are the pieces I'd actually add to a timeless wardrobe.

I'm focusing on elevated essentials that will still feel relevant years from now:
• The perfect belted jacket
• A forever trench
• Rich texture with a tweed cardigan
• A luxe faux-fur vest
• Leopard slingbacks that work as a neutral

I'm becoming much more intentional about what I buy—choosing quality, versatility, and longevity over trends. Think of this as shopping with an editor, not an influencer.

Everything featured is linked in this edit. Save this post for fall outfit inspiration, and let me know which piece is your favorite.

Hermès, Oscar de la Renta, and Zimmermann are all opening at Plaza del Lago—and that concentration of luxury brands is not accidental.

After reading Modern Luxury’s recent breakdown of the property’s newest openings and coming-soon boutiques, I wanted to look beyond the store list and ask what this transformation says about the future of luxury retail on Chicago’s North Shore. Hermès is opening its second Chicago-area boutique, while Oscar de la Renta and Zimmermann are both making their Midwest retail debuts at the property.

I’ll be visiting Plaza del Lago Thursday for Golden Hour at SPACE 519 and sharing a closer look at what’s already open—and what’s still to come.

Would you choose a curated open-air shopping destination over a traditional mall?

A woman walking past me at Starbucks in Old Town stopped just to compliment my necklace stack—and honestly, that’s the best kind of style validation. ✨

Every necklace is from Victoria Emerson, and I love how the mixed pendants make the stack feel collected and personal instead of overly matched.

I linked the full stack for anyone asking.

#VictoriaEmerson #NecklaceStack #EverydayJewelry #StyleDetails #LTKStyle

The best accessories are the ones that are both beautiful and useful. ✨

My Chanel Coco Mademoiselle purse spray doubles as the prettiest bag charm—and keeps one of my favorite fragrances within reach all day. I love that it feels polished, practical, and far more intentional than carrying a full-size bottle.

This is exactly the kind of detail that makes an everyday bag feel more personal.

Linked for anyone looking for a fragrance accessory that actually earns its place on the bag.

If the goal is “you look better without makeup,” then the real skill is makeup that looks like skin. ✨

Candy-inspired fragrances can easily lean juvenile, but Viktor & Rolf found a way to make them feel playful without losing sophistication. 🍬✨

I just unboxed the new BonBon Collection featuring Cola Fizz, Caramel Crunch, and Berry Jelly.

Cola Fizz is my favorite so far. The cola, lemon, and white musk open sparkling and sweet, but the musk gives it a cleaner, more wearable dry down.

Caramel Crunch is warm and gourmand with caramel, popcorn, and vanilla, while Berry Jelly feels juicy and fresh with raspberry, blackcurrant, and peony.

They’re fun on their own, but also made for layering if you want to create your own sweet little fragrance moment.

I linked the collection in my LTK if you want to explore them too.

Gifted by Viktor & Rolf.

Ralph Lauren-inspired summer dresses from Commense.

Think classic shirting, crisp stripes, gingham, halter necklines, belted waists, and that polished Americana feeling that never really goes out of style.

These are the kinds of dresses that work for summer lunches, wine tastings, vacation dinners, bridal showers, and any day you want to feel pulled together without overthinking it.

Classic, feminine, and easy to style with woven bags, gold jewelry, sandals, or a simple cardigan over the shoulders.

Effortless styling for drinks 🍸

The everyday essential bag of my dreams 🤎

The perfume I’ve been getting the most compliments on lately? Viktor & Rolf BonBon Cola Fizz. 🍒✨

It’s sweet, playful, a little unexpected, and gives that “wait, what are you wearing?” kind of scent trail. Perfect if you like a fragrance that feels fun, feminine, and not too serious.

I linked it on my LTK, and you can also find the BonBon Collection at Ulta Beauty.

The everyday bag that earned its place.

Lately, I’m less interested in pieces that only work for one outfit and more interested in the ones that quietly make every outfit feel more finished.

This bag has become one of those pieces.

It has that easy, seasonless shape that works with denim, trousers, dresses, blazers, errands, dinners, and everything in between. Not too precious. Not too trendy. Just polished enough to make a simple outfit feel intentional.

And honestly, that’s becoming my standard for getting dressed: fewer pieces that do more.

Would you rather have one everyday bag you reach for constantly, or a closet full of bags you barely use?

A little Prada Beauty moment — and yes, the clutch is actually usable.

I picked up the 4-piece Prada Beauty Clutch set from Nordstrom, and what I love most is that it feels like more than just a beauty set. It comes with the metallic clutch, Pradascope mascara, Prada Monochrome Soft Matte lipstick in B101 Tiepolo, and two Prada Balm refills in Universal and Astral Pink.

But the best part? I’ve already used the clutch as my handbag for an event.

That’s what makes it feel worth it to me. It’s not just pretty packaging that sits in a drawer. It becomes part of the look — a small, polished accessory that turns a beauty purchase into something you can actually style.

Luxury beauty is at its best when it doesn’t just feel indulgent. It feels intentional.

Unnecessary things I find chic: The COCO MADEMOISELLE Eau de
Parfum Purse Spray set features an atomizer that has been designed to resemble a piece of jewelry, with a golden chain that can be worn around the wrist. This format is ideal for enhancing the fresh, ambery notes of the fragrance. Limited edition.

Garden party chic for Summer Serve. 🎾✨

Wearing my $24 Target dress to a sold-out pickleball social because good styling does not need to come with a luxury price tag.

Sporty, feminine, heatwave-approved, and just dressed up enough for a summer night in Chicago.

Garden party chic in 94° heat. ✨

Wearing a cream ruffle sweater midi dress from Target that I found on sale for $24 — proof that a polished summer event look does not have to be expensive.

The lightweight knit felt breathable, the silhouette was easy, and the cream color helped keep everything looking pulled together, even for an outdoor event in full Chicago heat.

Affordable, feminine, practical, and styled with a heatwave survival plan.

Target is having a sale on dresses 40% off right now and I just had to grab this! I have an event tomorrow night and this is perfect!

Most people don’t need a longer skincare routine — they need one that makes sense.

I’ve been using ChatGPT to help organize my AM and PM skincare steps so each product has a clear place, and the newest addition is SkinCeuticals P-TIOX, recently gifted to me.

I’m introducing it as my peptide step in both my morning routine and evening recovery routine, layering it after thinner treatment serums and before moisturizer.

For me, skincare works best when it feels intentional, not excessive. The goal isn’t to use more products — it’s to use the right products in the right order, then stay consistent long enough to actually see the difference.

Beauty field trip on Michigan Ave. 💄

I stopped by the Estée Lauder Double Wear Sampling Bus at Pioneer Court to get shade matched, try the new Double Wear experience, and see the pop-up for myself.

I got there about 40 minutes early and there was already a line — Chicago does not play when it comes to beauty events.

They handed out coffee, did shade matching before we went into the bus, and I walked away with a full-size DayWear Boost Jelly Cleanser plus a trial of Advanced Night Repair Synchronized Multi-Recovery Complex.

I love a pop-up that feels interactive, organized, and actually lets you leave with products you’re excited to try.

Save this for the next Chicago beauty pop-up — and yes, I’ll report back on the products.

A little Parisian-inspired coffee moment: almond croissant, a café-style plate, and a CBK fashion book for morning style inspiration.

Simple, elegant, and exactly the kind of slow ritual I want more of. I linked the book and the plate here for anyone who loves collecting beautiful little details for home, coffee, and style moments.

A few years ago, I would’ve told you my dream bag was a Birkin.

Today, I’d tell you to find the bag that actually fits your life.

The older I get, the less interested I am in chasing the next “it” bag and the more interested I am in timeless pieces that I know I’ll reach for over and over again.

For me, that’s the Saint Laurent Sac de Jour.

It’s structured without being trendy, understated without feeling boring, and somehow works with everything from fashion events to meetings to everyday errands. It’s the kind of bag that quietly elevates an outfit instead of competing with it.

One thing I’ve learned over the past year is that you don’t always have to buy luxury to appreciate it. I’ve loved being able to carry different designer bags through Vivrelle before deciding if they’re truly worth the investment.

If you’ve been wanting to try Vivrelle, you can use my code JULIANNBROWN to get your first month free. It’s a great way to see if a bag fits your lifestyle before making a long-term purchase.

So now I’m curious…

If you could choose one timeless handbag to carry for the next 10 years, what would it be?

Prime Day finds I’d actually buy and use. ✨

Aviator sunglasses
Classic analog watch
Easy neutral loafers

✨ If I were starting my jewelry collection from scratch, these are the three pieces I’d buy first.

An emerald-cut pendant, emerald-cut studs, and a classic tennis bracelet.

Timeless. Versatile. The kind of pieces you’ll wear for years, not just a season.

If there’s one thing I’ve learned about style, it’s that the outfit isn’t what people remember—it’s the details. ✨

The older I get, the less interested I am in chasing trends and the more interested I am in investing in pieces I’ll actually wear for years.

For me, great style starts with a strong foundation, and jewelry is one of the easiest ways to elevate an outfit without completely reinventing it.

That’s why I’ve been reaching for these pieces from Angara.

What makes them investment-worthy isn’t just that they’re beautiful—it’s their versatility. Whether I’m heading to a fashion show, an event in the city, or simply getting dressed for the day, they instantly make every look feel more polished.

Each piece is handcrafted and made to order with incredible attention to detail and craftsmanship. They’re timeless, elegant, and designed to become part of your personal style for years to come.

Because the best investments aren’t the pieces you wear once—they’re the pieces you never want to take off.

Hi Vogue, this is Juliann Marie, and this is what’s inside my Vivrelle Saint Laurent Sac de Jour. 🤎

A little fashion, a little beauty, a little organization — and pepper spray, because polished and prepared can coexist.

Inside: my Vogue 2026 diary, Chanel hand cream, YSL powder, Louis Vuitton wallet, Le Labo Santal 33, a classic watch, Victoria Beckham lip liner, lipstick and gloss, Makeup by Josie gloss, and my Sundays in Paris purse hook.

And technically, this bag is on loan from @vivrelle, which means I get to rotate designer bags without buying every single one.
