Some of you are asking about the third piece. What is it?

Two pieces always look fine but when you add a third piece, it completes your outfit.

It could be a cardigan tied around your shoulders or waist, a blazer or a jacket over your shoulders, or even a scarf. It’s the layer that pulls the whole outfit together.

Next time your outfit doesn’t feel complete. Add a third piece. Let me know if it works.

Do you plan your outfits for the week?

When my schedule is full—or I’m packing for travel—planning outfits ahead makes mornings so much easier. It also helps me see what’s missing in my wardrobe.

This is Part 1 of my Week of Outfit Inspiration series. I’m starting with simple basics and adding fun accessories to keep each look fresh.

Which is your favorite outfit.

The Vince set (sold separately) is so cute and comfortable, and a perfect choice to wear at home, to parties, shopping around town, and on vacation.

Both pieces run TTS, and I’m wearing size extra small. This set is available in three colors, too. The pants also have a long inseam, so they are perfect for my tall friends. If you are like me, 5’2”, we will hem them a few inches.

This is one of those wardrobe basics that, once it’s in your wardrobe, you will wear it all the time. It’s a Vince button-up with a taupe stripe. Also available in a blue stripe. It fits true to size. I’m wearing a size extra small. It's nice quality, styling is perfect, and it’s at rack prices.

Love the tie waist jeans by Rag & Bone. They fit tts, and I'm wearing a size Xs.

If you don’t like wearing shorts, try this striped set for summer. It’s lightweight, a relaxed fit, and so comfortable.

The top is versatile; you can tuck it in or leave it untucked. Also, try wearing it unbuttoned as a layer over a tank top.

Both pieces fit TTS. I’m wearing size small for a relaxed fit.

I just shopped at Nordstrom Rack and found great summer outfits.

I was looking for the brands I like to wear and found pieces from Vince, Rag & Bond, and Caslon.

Cotton sets for when you don’t want to wear shorts, a tie, front jeans that are trending, and tops you will wear often throughout the summer.

This is the advice my mom gave me, and I passed it down to my daughters.

Eric Javitt's hats are on sale. This one has UPF sun protection and is packable without losing its shape.

This is the Mother lemon twist, Jean. It’s flattering, can't see-through, and is so comfortable.

It’s stretchy and runs big. If you are between sizes for a trimmer fit, wear your smaller size. For a looser fit, wear your bigger size. I’m between a 25/26 and wearing a size 26.

The T-shirt is a great quality for the price. It runs TTS. I’m wearing a size small.

The Levi jacket runs TTS. I’m wearing size extra small. I get asked about this jacket often, so I thought I’d share it.

#LTKootd #LTKSaleAlert #LTKOver40

I pulled together a summer capsule: new pieces, one goal. Everything works together.

There’s no hard rule for a capsule wardrobe. I just built mine to make getting dressed easy, and outfits look put together for everyday or an event.

I always add new pieces throughout the month so it never gets boring and there’s always something fresh to wear.

#LTKgrwm #LTKOver40 #LTKSeasonal

Which denim jacket are you wearing?
It’s the Levi trucker jacket. It fits TTS, and I’m wearing a size XS.

Mother lemon twist jeans. I wear a 25 or 26, and I’m wearing a 26 in these jeans for a looser fit.

The tank top is a size small.

#LTKootd #LTKOver40 #LTKSeasonal

The Mary dress by Frank & Eileen is one of my favorite summer dresses.

I wear it at home and pack it for vacation. Plus, sometimes it doubles as a swimsuit cover-up.

It runs TTS, and I’m wearing a small. This is a dress you’ll have in your wardrobe for years. It’s a great one.
