The Up Next Edit, Vol. 2

’ve come to accept that my style really hits its stride once the temperature drops. Cold weather gives me an excuse to layer, accessorize, and pull out pieces that actually do something. Watching Grace settle into her winter wardrobe has only encouraged me to reach for things that feel a little more elevated, a little more structured, and honestly a little more grown. Summer is when I dress younger and lean into whatever trend my generation is cycling through, so it always makes me laugh to see how dramatically my style shifts with the seasons. Maybe it’s the fresh perspective that comes with turning 28 or maybe I’m finally figuring out which pieces feel the most like me. Either way, winter is winning.

Rich Jewel Tones

This time of year, I am all about jewel tones. Ideally, in luxe fabrics like silk, satin, and velvet. Emerald, navy, burgundy, mustard yellow. I feel like every influencer has these La Ligne pants, and that is for good reason; they are the very best. Super comfy, leg lengthening, beautifully made! Also, the fabric is light enough to drape but substantial enough not to show any lumps and bumps (a must for me).

Vintage Home Finds, Vol. 10

Carly (The Stripe’s Creative Projects Manager) has an incredible knack for sourcing gorgeous, well-priced items for the home. After ten editions of Amazon Home Finds, we’ve decided to shift to share some vintage and small business finds. I continue to be blown away by her discoveries. If you missed it, you can read volumes one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, and nine right this way! I am a broken record, but once again, I want everything! The marbled platter? OMG those colors! The Danish ice bucket? Coolest.

My Favorite Sequin Pieces

I am not afraid to admit it: I love sequins. Love them. My lifestyle right now is not very sequins-forward, but I imagine myself one day, living in a posh retirement community and meeting my girlfriends to drink martinis and play Mahjong (wearing head-to-toe sequins on a Tuesday). I actually only own a few sequin pieces, because as much as I love them, they don’t make it out very often. But the pieces I own are solid and extra special. I have a few caftans from La Vie Stylehouse that I love pulling out for a fancy occasion, and I bought the Blaze Milano jacket above a couple of years ago. Despite not getting much wear, it remains a top-ten favorite piece in my closet. Last year, for an event, I styled it with my emerald green La Ligne Colby pants and felt like a million bucks.
