Lest you think I've abandoned all of my sartorial sensibilities, a little OOTD action for you today, featuring some of my closet's current favorite things. Deep green & cognac get along awfully well, don't you think? {Details on those amazing, under-$50 jeans & the rest of it: www.liketk.it/RSgQ} #SMC

My friends @chroniclebooks asked me to show off my fave denim look to kick off @50waystowear's latest book. I'm a big believer in the booty-lifting, leg-lengthening, figure-flattering power of flares. And no, you don't have to tuck your shirt in and you don't have to wear platforms to pull it off. Just wear a top that shows a bit of shape, and a shoe that shows a bit of personality. #50waystoweardenim #5daysof50ways

Reporting back with a few dressing room picks! Lovelovelove that Theory coat and the Frame jeans (so much cuter IRL!) Also a big fan of those little Franco Sarto booties in burgundy and the blanket stripe Halogen cashmere wrap, which is light and yet still super cozy didn't love the Vince tee, but the Rag & Bone tee that looks blah online is AMAZING in person. http://liketk.it/2oMmx #liketkit @liketoknow.it

Inside this bag is maybe my favorite purchase of the season: a super-basic, cràzy-comfy midi dress with sleeves! And it doesn't even make you look like you're wearing a potato sack http://liketk.it/2oscr @liketoknow.it #liketkit

#FBF: What was your first "major" fashion purchase? Mine was this @michaelkors hobo. It's practically vintage now - older than my marriage! - but the silky soft leather still beats anything else I own by a mile. What was your first big buy? | www.liketk.it/2mlaT

It's possible I went a little overboard at the @shopbop sale just now. But I mean, 25% off?! What choice did I have? To see the full haul (plus a thing or two I'm still debating): www.liketk.it/2d9KT

Currently: trying to work up the nerve to take a pair of scissors to my new @paigedenim. Feelin' that cropped, raw hem thing for spring... || www.liketk.it/27SmQ #liketkit #fashion #whatiwore #ootd #spring #denim #trend #green #decor #design #style #landgathome

I've been waiting for this bad boy to come out for SIX months! It's finally here, and totally lives up to the hype. So many design books make me crazy - they're impossibly perfect and offer no useful advice. If you're curious, I made a list of the only 4 I've read that have actually been helpful during this reno. Great aspirational photos, ideas that can actually be pared down and recreated, plus oodles of real-world advice (snaps to @remodelista & @em_henderson in particular). You should probably just buy them all for yourself. Right now. In fact, here's a link: www.liketk.it/20mDe #SMC

They're here! Dreamy custom @zoechiccojewelry studs - because sometimes you just need to #treatyoself. || Check out the rest of my Zoe crushes at www.liketk.it/1NAJc #SMC

Sh!t's gettin' real, y'all. {For a peek at the extremely glamorous ensemble I wore to the filthy job site: www.liketk.it/1Mxa0 } #SMCreno

So very torn, friends. Which pair stays and which pair goes? #nsale #sos || Product details at www.liketk.it/1BnXh

No kidding, friends, this pic is from the airport lounge in Athens. #beautyiseverywhere {PS: if you want a peek at the rest of my travel-day ensemble: www.liketk.it/1AbjW}

Tales from my bathroom counter: These three products are currently saving my skin in a major way. @RENskincare's Flash Facial gives my skin the most impressive glow, the @kiehlsnyc eye serum is kicking my red allergy eyes to the curb, and that @katesomervilleskincare serum has actual magical powers. || Details at www.liketk.it/1kO6r #SMC

Whenever I wear jewelry from a friend, it feels like a big ol' hug from them. And this pearly tasseled number from my friends @graylingjewelry has been giving me LOTS of hugs - I can't seem to stop wearing it. {Nab it at www.graylingjewelry.com / Deets on the rest at www.liketk.it/1jULD} #SMC

"Say yellow to my little friend..." (said in my best Russian villain accent) || Shop the goods at www.liketk.it/1301d

#TBT to my two favorite #streetstyle looks from NYFW. @joannahillman & @jcrew Jenna Lyons' PA nailed that "polished casual" thing I'm always aiming for. {Shop their looks at www.liketk.it/Yzb2}

#TBT to that time @theoutnet was celebrating their 1st birthday & sold me a @maisonvalentino tweed jacket for $1. By far my best & most beloved bargain buy ever!! What's yours? {A few of my fave, only-slightly-less-awesome Outnet steals: www.liketk.it/ScWU} #whatibought #style #fashion #chanel #liketkit

I know this drops my "fancy lady" cred by a few rungs, but I can't lie: these #birks are my new favorite thing. Cozy like #Uggs, but with actual arch support and an outdoor sole. #heaven #newshoes #clogs #shoesday www.liketk.it/NVMU #liketkit

Today's #gift: I'm a @sorelfootwear girl from way back, but my newest addition has gotten me stopped on the street every single time I wear them. Cozy, waterproof and completely chic. She'll love them! {For a few other winter-friendly gift picks: www.liketk.it/JXc8} #giftidea#boots#christmas#style#babyitscoldoutside#sorel#liketkit

Thought I'd share a few bonus holiday gift ideas with you this week! Today: The Best Of Flair is easily the prettiest coffee table book I've seen all year - @RizzoliBooks did an *incredible* job on it. Pop-ups, fold-outs, and a gorgeous red linen slipcase. The best gift you could conjure for anyone interested in style or design. AND, it's 25% off today at @amazon w/code BOOKDEAL25! {To see all of my top 5 book picks for gifting, head to: www.liketk.it/JoKQ} #holiday#giftguide#book#liketkit

Hubs is so not going to be a fan of my latest #cybermonday buy, but it's cool – Isabel and I know it's fly. {See the rest of my holiday haul at www.liketk.it/HbHe} #jolielaide#uglysweater#isabelmarant#liketkit

So happy with my skincare drill these days, I thought it was high time I shared. Those Mario Badescu goods are amazing - not a hint of my formerly desert-dry skin, and such a great price point. The 3Lab Aqua BB is actual magic, and the MD Solar Science is the only retinol that doesn't irritate my skin. {Shop them all at www.liketk.it/DODq} #SMC

When all else fails, #stripes + florals. Also, can't say enough about those @mihjeans, which I have been living in. Little tip: I have my tailor take in the flare by about 2" when she's hemming, since we're not all @rachelzoe. {Shop it at www.liketk.it/D17W} #SMC

Spent the morning writing a love song to this @inhabitny sweater, so naturally couldn't resist wearing it today. Story on SMC, or shop the look here: www.liketk.it/AsBm - #whatiwore #ootd #style #fall #sweater #liketkit

Grabbed this moto jacket-slash-cozy sweatshirt at @loftgirl yesterday, and I'm pretty sure it's my new favorite thing. (It's also 40% off today...) Find it at www.liketk.it/zis0 #ootd#whatiwore#style#liketkit

Oh, how I look forward to this day every year! @shopbop #friendsandfamily is on! Like the pic for a peek at my top picks - decisions, decisions. {or link to them at www.liketk.it/xkYQ} #shoppingismycardio#sale#shopbop#treatyoself

I have had these gorgeous jackets with interchangeable zip-out liners on my lust list for years, and meeting the adorable designers behind them yesterday did not help one bit. Thanks for a lovely afternoon, @veronicabeard & @neimanmarcus - that hoodie jacket will be mine! (My fave styles: www.liketk.it/uP0k)

Sneaks + cropped pants: all the cool kids are doing it, apparently. (Also, #greyhound tongue #photobomb!) #peerpressure#kicks#ootd#whatiwore | Outfit deets at www.liketk.it/uzFm

Fancy feet! Kicking up my heels while I scope out the ultra-glam new @thescarlet_sf Hotel in #SF! (Style deets at www.liketk.it/tdpO) #travelinstyle#sanfrancisco#hotel#travel

...and we're back! Today on SMC: A sartorial pickle, or "Why I hate everything in my closet." (Want that incredible @inhabitny sweater? www.liketk.it/sb64) #fall#fashion#style#blogging
