- [Spring at Madewell + Linen Shift Dress Two Ways](https://www.elleblogs.com/madewell-linen-shift-dress/) - The Madewell Mini Shift Dress in 100% Linen fits true to size, though on 5'2 me it's more above-the-knee than a true mini. The linen is medium-weight, which provides enough structure to hold the shift silhouette but keeps it breathable enough for warmer weather. But 100% linen means that some amount of creasing is inevitable: I've come to appreciate it as part of linen's character/charm rather than a flaw, but the photos amplify them somewhat; still, this is a piece that needs a good steam before it leaves the house. My favorite detail is the scallop trim, which elevates it from being just an everyday basic.
- [Review: Söfft Kelly Mary Jane Sneaker](https://www.elleblogs.com/sofft-kelly-mary-jane-sneaker-review/) - The Söfft Kelly is a comfort shoe dressed as a mary jane sneaker: true-to-size fit, genuine arch support, secure closure. The design trade-offs are real but so are the credentials.
- [Review: Adidas Samba Jane Sneaker](https://www.elleblogs.com/adidas-samba-jane-review/) - A review of the adidas Samba Jane: grafting a mary jane strap onto one of adidas's most enduring silhouettes. At $100, the execution is uneven, but for the right feet, it's an easy shoe to reach for.
- [Weekend Link Roundup](https://www.elleblogs.com/weekend-link-roundup-43/) - 1. Nordstrom's anniversary sale is nearing its end (prices go up 08/08/16). These Adidas Superstar Sneakers (shown above in White/Black; see on me here. On sale in two other colorways) that I have been wearing regularly are included in selected colorways. They run a full size large—I normally wear a size 7 in sneakers and
- [Reformation Rou Dress Review: Is It Still Worth Buying?](https://www.elleblogs.com/review-reformation-rou-midi-fit-flare-dress/) - An honest review of the Reformation Rou Knit Midi Dress that covers fit, fabric, sizing, petite notes, and what's changed about the brand since 2018. Is it still worth buying?
- [Egg-Cooker (a.k.a. J. Crew No. 2 Pencil Skirt in Glen Plaid)](https://www.elleblogs.com/egg-cooker-aka-j-crew-no-2-pencil-skirt/) - In my closet hang twenty or so items that I would describe as...clutter. Allow me to explain: These articles of clothing complement only one or two other items in my closet, rendering them particularly expendable. There's an analogy begging to be drawn between these items and single-purpose kitchen appliances. J. Crew Collection Icon Trench |
- [J. Crew Bow-Shoulder Dress (+ Mid-Week Required Reading)](https://www.elleblogs.com/j-crew-bow-shoulder-dress-mid-week/) - After a (long, at times seemingly endless) winter of living in muted colors, which mirrored my somber mood, I've been making an effort to dress more colorfully this summer. I recently added this J. Crew chartreuse sheath dress to my closet and couldn't be more pleased with it. The color is a subdued green-yellow (in
- [Review: FP Movement Wild And Free Fleece Pullover](https://www.elleblogs.com/review-fp-movement-wild-and-free-fleece-pullover/) - The FP Movement Wild and Free Fleece Pullover is cozy, generously cut, and packed with pockets. An honest review of fit, warmth, sizing, and whether $178 is worth it.
- [Review: Arc'teryx Patera Insulated Parka](https://www.elleblogs.com/review-arcteryx-patera-insulated-parka/) - An honest Arc'teryx Patera parka review covering construction, 750-fill down warmth, fit on petite frames, the zipper problem everyone mentions, and whether it justifies the price.
- [Review: Birkenstock Boston Shearling Clogs vs UGG Tasman Shearling Slippers](https://www.elleblogs.com/birkenstock-boston-clogs-vs-ugg-tasman-slippers-comparison-review/) - I tried both the Birkenstock Boston Clogs and UGG Tasman Slippers. This post compares their warmth, support, fit, and price to help you choose.
- [Review: Lululemon Everywhere Belt Bag 1L vs 2L](https://www.elleblogs.com/lululemon-everywhere-belt-bag-1l-vs-2l-comparison-review/) - Comparing the Lululemon Everywhere Belt Bag 1L vs 2L. The size difference is smaller than you'd think: here's a breakdown of dimensions, capacity, and which size fits your needs.
- [Saint Laurent Manhattan Bag: Mini vs Small Review](https://www.elleblogs.com/saint-laurent-manhattan-bag-review/) - The YSL Manhattan bag comes in Mini, Small, and Medium, but which size is actually worth it? Honest review from someone who owns both the Mini and Small, with dimensions, what fits, and construction notes.
- [Wear It Five Ways : Green Lace Dress](https://www.elleblogs.com/wear-it-five-ways-green-lace-dress/) - I acquired the lace dress featured in this post several months ago on an impromptu trip to H&M. At the time, I had newly fallen in love with a green Valentino lace dress and was almost desperate in satiating my craving for one. As with most purchases made without much forethought, this dress edged into
- [Dog Graphic Crewneck](https://www.elleblogs.com/dog-graphic-crewneck/) - I recently cracked the code to inviting more encounters with cute dogs in the wild, short of adopting my own: wear them on my clothes. There’s something disarming about a dog printed on a sweatshirt: It reads friendly without trying too hard, turning a basic weekend outfit--jeans, sneakers, a crewneck--into an open invitation to say
- [Samsonite Mobile Solution 2 Carry-On Review](https://www.elleblogs.com/samsonite-mobile-solution-2-carry-on-review/) - The Samsonite Mobile Solution 2 Carry-On Spinner delivers what I want from a carry-on: The spinner wheels roll smoothly, the soft-sided shell is durable but pliable, the dedicated laptop compartment has multiple padded sleeves, the expandable feature offers flexibility without encouraging overpacking. The interior layout is intuitive rather than over-designed, making packing feel efficient.
- [Year in Review: A Comma, Not a Period + Outfits of 2025](https://www.elleblogs.com/2025-year-in-review/) - I stepped back from blogging this year because sharing outfits requires an emotional buoyancy I often struggled to find when the news cycle felt relentless. I didn't lose interest in clothing or fashion, but there is a sharp, specific discomfort and dissonance in feeling frivolous while the world roiled. ♥ ♥ ♥ I hope to
- [Fruit Print Maxi Dress](https://www.elleblogs.com/fruit-print-maxi-dress/) - I picked up this Seven Wonders maxi dress on a whim—and on final sale—from Shopbop earlier this year. While the cut isn't ideal for my frame, it combines three of my current obsessions: a butter yellow color, fruit and tile prints, and a longer length that is both cooling and cool to wear. It’s become,
- [UGG Classic Boot Colors Compared: Black, Chestnut, Sand & Caribou](https://www.elleblogs.com/ugg-colors-compared/) - 2025 UGG Classic Mini Boots Color & Fit Comparison: The Chestnut brown color is a touch more desaturated compared to the Chestnut color from as recently as 2023, but remains a warm and versatile neutral. Caribou is a cool taupe that feels muted but modern: this option will likely work best for those who wear a lot of gray and black. Sand is a pale, warm beige with cream undertones. This is the color I wear most as it pairs wonderfully with winter whites and light denim. While this year’s staple colors feel familiar, there’s a noticeable fit change between the current Ultra Mini and versions from the last few years. The older pair had a wider ankle opening, which allowed the boot to function like a true slip-on once broken in. The current version has a narrower opening and fits slightly smaller overall, which subtly but meaningfully changes the experience. The tighter ankle opening means the boot is no longer fully hands-free; most wearers will need to use the pull tab at the back, especially when wearing socks.
- [On Sale at Anthropologie: UGG Classic Boots](https://www.elleblogs.com/on-sale-at-anthropologie-ugg-classic-boots/) - Anthropologie is currently running a storewide sale--take $50 off $150, $100 off $300, or $150 off $500--with very few brand exclusions. The discount also stacks on top of the extra 50% off sale, making this an especially good time to pick up UGG boots in classic colors.
- [Review: UGG Ultra Mini Classic Boots](https://www.elleblogs.com/ugg-ultra-mini-classic-boots-review/) - The UGG Ultra Mini Boots have real shearling/leather uppers that are treated for water-repellence and stain-resistance, but the footbeds are lined in a material called UGGplush that's 80% wool and 20% lyocell³. The lining, which measures 17mm, is quite plush and warm. My favorite detail on the Ultra Mini (which you will also find on the Classic Mini but not on the taller styles) is the rear pull tabs, which facilitate the on/off process. The Ugg classic boot is easily identified by the tonal stitching on the exterior and UGG labels at the heel. They are generally well made and, based on my experience, last between five to eight seasons; I generally only retire them when the lining starts to thin from (overzealously) cleaning the insoles.
- [Monterey Ditsy Powder Blue](https://www.elleblogs.com/monterey-ditsy-powder-blue/) - With temperatures dipping below freezing all week, I’ve been thinking back to warmer weather, and that nostalgia has taken a very specific form: long, flowy dresses. Over the past few years, midi and maxi dresses became some of the most versatile pieces in my warm-weather wardrobe, equally suited to casual weekends and the occasional wedding
- [Review: Osprey Daylite Expandable Travel Pack 26+6](https://www.elleblogs.com/review-osprey-daylite-expandable-travel-pack-266/) - The Osprey Daylite Expandable 26+6 Travel Pack is one of the largest underseat backpacks that easily slides into a bag sizer, which makes it an attractive companion for flying on budget airlines. Unexpanded, the Osprey Daylite Expandable 26+6 Travel Pack measures 17" H x 13" W x 6" D, weighs 1.85 pounds empty, and meets all US airline personal item standards (when not filled to the brim). But it also prepares for when life happens--when I inevitably buy snacks at the airport or need somewhere to stow a fleece; the main compartment can expand by 2" in width to offer an extra six liters of capacity, a feature typically reserved for roller bags.
- [Beneunder Jackets for In-Between Weather](https://www.elleblogs.com/beneunder-jackets-for-in-between-weather/) - -------------- Beneunder gifted me the jackets featured in today’s blog post; all opinions are my own -------------- The official start of fall finally broke the heat bubble that had settled over the Northeast this summer. The air smells crisper, and while the sun hasn’t dulled its edge, mornings now feel cool enough for a midweight
- [Wide-Leg Ankle Jeans](https://www.elleblogs.com/wide-leg-ankle-jeans/) - Late last year, I parted with almost all of my old jeggings and skinny jeans, keeping only two pairs as an insurance policy. I used to love their stretch and ease, but now they just feel like relics from another era. For years I held on to them, imagining a moment when nostalgia or utility
- [Effortless Summer Dressing: Alice + Olivia Floral Mini Dress](https://www.elleblogs.com/effortless-summer-dressing-alice-olivia-floral-mini-dress/) - One subreddit that I enjoy far more than I should is r/Weddingattireapproval--a virtual town square where ~143,000 strangers gather to debate the potential social fallout of wearing blush to a semi-formal beach wedding with "pastels encouraged" in the dress code. The central question--“Is this dress too white?”--is endlessly refracted through cryptic dress codes, uncertain lighting
- [Review: Osprey Daylite Large Tote Pack](https://www.elleblogs.com/review-osprey-daylite-large-tote-pack/) - The Osprey Daylite Large Tote Pack is a backpack-tote hybrid that refuses to be put in a box. It has stowable (cushioned!) backpack straps, tote handles that fit easily over a winter coat, a trolley sleeve for attaching to a rolling luggage, a bottom compartment to separate shoes (or, more likely, takeout or leftovers), a generous 26-liter capacity, and front straps that could carry a yoga mat or a picnic blanket. It’s practical, adaptable, and versatile. Not perfect, but comes close (for me).
- [Crossover Pants (+ Club Monaco Yolande Pant Review)](https://www.elleblogs.com/crossover-pants/) - The rebirth of wide-leg pants has been a blessing for me. While I have mostly outgrown my adolescent issues with having muscular legs, a straight leg pant will perhaps never be comfortable for me. In contrast, wide-leg pants, especially truncated ones, are more comfortable than pajamas to me. So I have been buying all of
- [A Carrie Bradshaw Moment](https://www.elleblogs.com/a-carrie-bradshaw-moment/) - I revisited Sex and the City last summer--just the original six-season run and the first film; not the sequel, for obvious reasons--during a particularly quiet season for new television. Like many shows from the late-nineties and early-aughts, SATC is riddled with tonal misfires and cultural faux pas, which are often cringeworthy, and sometimes offensive. But

- [Los Angeles : Day 1](https://www.elleblogs.com/los-angeles-day-1/) - So my aviation drama continues...after an extended stay in San Francisco, I was excited to finally get on the plane to LAX for the connecting flight back to the NE. Unfortunately, shortly after my family landed and attempted to get better seat assignments, we were told by the lady at the Sky Club counter that
- [Los Angeles : Day 2 + 3](https://www.elleblogs.com/los-angeles-day-2-3/) - I'm still in L.A. and aside from some rain this morning it's been incredibly nice (high-60s to mid-70s). I guess it's probably the best place to be stranded at in the winter. I made my obligatory trip to In-N-Out yesterday for some animal style fries (I am not a big beef person so I passed
- [Navy + Cream](https://www.elleblogs.com/navy-cream/) - The Danskin Crossover Waist 7/8 Legging is currently on sale in nearly every colorways on Amazon. The 7/8-length fits someone who is 5'2 very well, and the price point is just right.

- [Black + Khaki (Featuring The Drop Arlo Voluminous Cotton Poplin Midi Skirt)](https://www.elleblogs.com/the-drop-arlo-voluminous-cotton-poplin-midi-skirt/) - One of my most-worn pieces last fall, The Drop Arlo Voluminous Cotton Poplin Midi Skirt (reviewed here), has recently been restocked in new colorways (though the "Plaza Taupe" color that I am wearing here is currently unavailable in most sizes). It's a truly versatile piece that pairs effortlessly with just about everything--from ribbed tank tops
- [(Chapter) 11 Again. Or... 22 at Last?](https://www.elleblogs.com/forever-21-no-more/) - I became acquainted with Forever 21 one summer in the early aughts when I was "living" on my own for the first time while doing a pre-college summer program. Its store in the Providence Place Mall was bright and welcoming, and I was immediately taken with it: there was an explosion of basics with plenty
- [Quilted Padded Coat](https://www.elleblogs.com/quilted-padded-coat/) - Happy daylight saving time! With the return of longer daylight and (slightly) warmer days, I hope to trade bulky layers for outfits I can get excited about soon.

- [Review: Tieks Classic Ballet Flats](https://www.elleblogs.com/review-tieks-classic-ballet-flats/) - Ballet flats are my favorite everyday shoes: they are dressier than sneakers and more elegant than loafers, which make them perfectly suited to my "whimsically" preppy style. I usually have a pair in my work tote, and will always pack them for travel. One of my favorite pairs is the Tieks Classic Ballet Flat, which

- [Holiday Red](https://www.elleblogs.com/red-sweater-outfit/) - It's eight degrees here in Connecticut, with snow from last weekend still on the ground, but I am reminded of this outfit from several weeks ago, before winter descended on New England, because I am wearing this oversized sweater again today; I'm still wearing it barelegged, just indoors. It's sold by an Amazon third-party vendor
- [Review: J.Crew Odette Cable Knit Sweater Lady Jacket](https://www.elleblogs.com/review-j-crew-odette-cable-knit-sweater-lady-jacket/) - Another fall, another Odette sweater lady jacket. This season's offering has a cable-knit texture and a slightly slimmer fit compared to previous versions; however, I was surprised by the amount of synthetic polymers contained in the material composition--68% cotton/31% polyamide/1% elastane--considering its $168 price tag. My favorite version of the Odette Sweater Lady Jacket remains

Crew Giselle Sweater-Blazer, I had complained about its awkward length and the floppy fabric. I found so little use for this sweater-blazer that It ended up in the donation pile over the summer. But I must not have been the only one with similar complaints because J.Crew released an

While the mediocre acrylic blend doesn't wash well in the machine, it feels super soft
- [Review: FP Movement Quilted Carryall Bag](https://www.elleblogs.com/fp-movement-quilted-carryall-review/) - I am drawn to accessories that can double as comfort objects, like plushy (faux) fur coats and huggable, oversized bags. And it was for this reason that I bought the FP Movement Quilted Carryall, but this pillowy bag is more than a security blanket, it's also become my gym bag and is capacious enough for
- [J.Crew Leighton Blazer Jacket](https://www.elleblogs.com/j-crew-leighton-blazer-jacket-review/) - October in the Northeast can occasionally feel almost summery, but I can't recall a consistently warm (and dry) start to November like the one we are seeing this year. While the forecast for the rest of the month looks more in line with late-fall in New England, I feel a bit unsettled by the unseasonably
- [Fun (Animal) Facts Roundup](https://www.elleblogs.com/fun-animal-facts-roundup/) - The low-grade panic that I developed yesterday after waking up to unwelcome election results has devolved into a white-hot blind rage (mostly at myself for failing to realize how decisive the win would be despite the many indicators pointing to that dreadful result). To find temporary reprieve, I decided to uninstall most news and social

- [Tennis Whites](https://www.elleblogs.com/tennis-whites/) - I bought several skortsies in the spring "for tennis," but the reality is I wear more practical options--lightweight windbreakers during the day or merino layers under a warm vest in the evening--when I actually play, and the one-pieces are worn more as athleisure. Over the summer, I wore this Lou & Grey Wanderweave Zip Jacket
- [(Faux) Leather Maxi Skirt](https://www.elleblogs.com/leather-maxi-skirt/) - One of fall's hottest new trends is the sleek leather skirt in a midi or maxi length, and I am here for it.

But

Among the items that can't be adapted for fall in New England is the SAUKOLE

Ref's knits have that elusive insouciant quality to them--achieved by balancing classic details with a more contemporary cut (i.e., relaxed but not shapeless). The Ida Cashmere Sleeveless Sweater Dress
- [Reformation Sale: Summer 2024](https://www.elleblogs.com/reformation-sale-summer-2024/) - In case you missed the announcement: Reformation's semi-annual sale has started.

I've used it frequently for close to a year now, and finally feel ready to share my thoughts on the bag. While

Long dresses, especially Little (Long) Black Dresses, however, meet the challenges of this season perfectly. I recently

This Athleta bestseller is so comfortable to wear, easy to care for, and (very importantly) has useful zip pockets. The lightweight, stretchy fabric--86% Recycled Polyester and 14% Spandex--is silky, dries quickly, allows
- [100% Sundress](https://www.elleblogs.com/sundress/) - The New York Times recently tried to define, or at least manifest, the sundress. Readers were asked to consider sundresses in four dimensions: color/fabric, tightness, (lack of) sleeves, and length. The majority of respondents seems to think that color-wise, "Anything goes, but the most important thing is fabric (no wool, obviously)" (62% agree); a sundress

I found it in the Abercrombie & Fitch Long-Sleeve Squareneck Midi
- [White Bodysuit](https://www.elleblogs.com/white-bodysuit/) - White tank tops are one of my warm weather staples, but it's hard finding one that fits just right--snug enough to tuck smoothly, but not so tight that it might ride up.

- [One-Bag Travel: Personal Item](https://www.elleblogs.com/one-bag-travel/) - One request I receive with surprising frequency is an updated travel wardrobe. But I've struggled with the follow-up because my formula hasn't changed all that much--I might adapt the color palette and fabric weight for the season, but the packing fundamentals remain mostly unchanged.

Earlier this winter, family members gifted me the Coquette Slipper and the Scuffette II Slipper Side, two UGG bestsellers. At first glance, both shoes look like bedroom slippers, but the Coquette has a sturdier, lugged outsole
- [Review: UGG Classic Mini II Boots](https://www.elleblogs.com/ugg-classic-mini-boots-review/) - As I mentioned in my review of the UGG Ultra Mini Boots, the primary difference between the Classic Mini II and the Ultra Mini is the shaft height.

- [Button-Down Sweater Dress](https://www.elleblogs.com/amazon-the-drop-jaxon-button-down-sweater-dress-review/) - The button-down sweater dress is a transitional weather staple that I can't wait to re-style once temperatures rise. Button accents add sufficient visual interest to the basic sweater dress, and if you can find it in a ribbed material (providing stretch and creating a lengthening effect), that's even better. While I quite like the one that I am wearing here from The Drop--the price point is reasonable and the construction fair--the front buttons do not naturally lay-flat and instead want to crease and curl. Sizing up helps this problem, but doesn't entirely solve it. If you do order, definitely consider upsizing.

Birkenstock is struggling to satisfy demand, and customers are paying upwards of double for pairs on resale sites ... The allure of the affordable Boston
- [Review: Lululemon Strongfeel Training Shoe](https://www.elleblogs.com/review-lululemon-strongfeel-training-shoe/) - The Strongfeel, with a streamlined silhouette defined by rounded contours and cutouts, is designed for strength training, it has a flat sole with low-profile cushioning and a higher back which stabilizes the heel and provides an anchored sensation. The upper is surprisingly lightweight but also hugs the feet securely, while the slightly curved outsole provides traction for plyometric exercises.
- [Longline Denim](https://www.elleblogs.com/longline-denim/) - Remember all the sensationalistic headlines in 2021 declaring that Gen Zers had "cancelled" skinny jeans and were effectively waging a generational war against millennials? Well, I am glad I didn't donate or repurpose all of mine (mostly out of pandemic-related inertia), because I have worn skinny jeans a lot this winter. With their tapered hems,

- [Weekly Link Roundup](https://www.elleblogs.com/weekly-link-roundup-march-2023/) - The farfalle has become Rachel Antonoff’s best-selling print, and the jacket — which retails for $425 — has sold out three times since it was introduced at the end of 2021 ... It’s not unheard-of for outerwear to develop a cult following ... But the pasta puffer seems more niche ... Rental companies have also played a role in the pasta puffer’s ubiquity. The coat has been rented more than 1,000 times through the clothing rental service Nuuly. On Rent the Runway, rentals of the coat grew by 10 percent from fall and winter of 2021 to the same period in 2022 — a rarity for any item of clothing ... But many pasta puffer enthusiasts also acknowledged the jacket’s downsides: It’s not very warm. It’s boxy. It’s expensive ... But with a coat like this, it’s not really about the fit. It’s about the joy.
- [Amazon Essentials Sherpa-Lined Hoodies (+ Earmuffs as Ear Savers)](https://www.elleblogs.com/amazon-essentials-sherpa-lined-hoodie-earmuffs-as-ear-savers/) - If you are still masking indoors, as I sometimes do, and keeping that same mask on to protect your face against the cold when walking outside, I have been wrapping the straps of my mask around earmuffs to avoid behind-the-ear irritation. It also has the added benefit of keeping ears warm.

- [Weekly Link Roundup](https://www.elleblogs.com/weekly-link-roundup-84/) - + Does Wendy’s Really Make Better Fries Than McDonald’s? (The Takeout): "People can’t possibly prefer Wendy’s fries. They’re an afterthought, sitting far outside the realm of items you get excited about when placing a Wendy’s order. Meanwhile, McDonald’s fries are iconic: salty, crisp, golden, and delectably fatty. People go to McDonald’s specifically for the fries."
- [Everyday Jewelry](https://www.elleblogs.com/aurate/) - I like AUrate's simple design philosophy: nothing is garish, which isn't to say that its designs are ordinary. The price points are also reasonable, considering that the pearls are natural (though cultured, not wild), the metals are 14- and 18-karat gold, and the diamonds are SI1-clarity.
- [Weekly Link Roundup](https://www.elleblogs.com/weekly-link-roundup-february-2023/) - KFC's US offerings are limited and lacking in imagination, but I will stop in whenever they roll out new products, to show support for investment in new menu items. And while the KFC Wraps are fine (though they are very tortilla forward and light on fillings), they are the size of the old McDonald's $1 snack wraps but at 3x the price (or 2.5x if you buy two). If you prize satiety over novelty, just get the $4.99 KFC Chicken Sandwich.

With milder weather, some late-fall purchases have actually received (occasional) wear this winter, like the Alice + Olivia Chase Cable Puff Sleeve Sweater that I am wearing

Here are 10 items that I couldn't stop wearing (and rewearing) this year.
- [Rebecca Taylor Wind-Down Sale](https://www.elleblogs.com/rebecca-taylor-wind-down-sale/) - As a bona fide Rebecca Taylor fangirl who can't get enough of the brand's feminine knits and tweeds, I was saddened (if unsurprised) when news broke in September that Vince was winding down the brand. Vince Holding acquired Rebecca Taylor (along with Parker) in late 2019 from Sun Capital, which also owned 75% of Vince
- [Short Puffer Jackets](https://www.elleblogs.com/short-puffer-jackets/) - As someone with legs that have a high threshold for the cold, the short puffer jacket was one of my favorite late-fall outerwear options to wear with wool A-line skirts. I also frequently wore these oversized puffer jackets with slimmer-cut jeans for a contrasting silhouette. They are so easy to dress up (or down!). Below

The design is classic with a feminine touch; I think the Varina is as classic a design for bow flats as they come. I also enjoy the myriad of colors that

- [Review: Alo Foxy Sherpa Jacket](https://www.elleblogs.com/alo-foxy-sherpa-jacket-review/) - The Alo Yoga Foxy Sherpa Jacket is one of my favorite athleisure pieces. This bomber-style jacket is incredibly cozy, but the plush sherpa is on the heavier-side, so it's more cumbersome than traditional fleece full-zip jackets. I also like that it doesn't have (m)any unnecessary details (the only conspicuous branding is the Alo logo on

Single-digit weather made impossible any outfit that doesn't include at least one bulky item, which isn't to say that you should resign yourself to looking like Michelin Man (but it's not like you are committing some kind of sartorial sin if you do; just do you). As promised,

- [Little Black Midi Dress](https://www.elleblogs.com/reformation-mara-midi-dress/) - The transition to fall has been harshly abrupt this year: temperatures crashed 40 degrees seemingly overnight, which halted plans to fill my closet with Reformation dresses.

My natural inclination toward procrastination, coupled with general forgetfulness, also ensures that I always pack at the last minute, which inevitably leads to my forgetting something (always minor but inevitably causes anxiety). But if adulthood has taught me anything about travel, it's that nothing is indispensable aside from ID-money-phone-charger-glasses-jacket-and-comfortable shoes.

I think it first caught my eye around January of 2015, when the Spring/Summer 2015 collection was rolling out. It closely resembles the Prada Saffiano Tote, which inspired an army of copycats.

The size—78.75" long x 27.5" wide—is versatile and can be worn in dozens of ways (though my default is the classic loop).

It's unsurprising that Prada's 2014 profits suffered a 28% drop from the previous year and sales of leather goods stagnated. I

- [The Ultimate Travel Wardrobe // One Bag Travel](https://www.elleblogs.com/the-ultimate-travel-wardrobe-one-bag/) - I am an ardent supporter of the one-bag-travel movement, which my immediate family finds odd, because I am not a backpacker™. My obsession with traveling light is born out of a dislike of transport hubs and of my need to move quickly when in transit. Sure, I can linger in bed for days on end
- [January Favorites](https://www.elleblogs.com/sam-edelman-lydell-combat-boots-review/) - Happy February! January came and went in the blink of an eye, but there were some distinct highlights for me that I want to share.

- [Year In Review : Outfits of 2013](https://www.elleblogs.com/year-in-review-outfits-of-2013/) - If 2013 had a theme, it would be green. And it's a color I will never tire of. If you are active on social media, please share below a picture of your favorite outfit from this year. Or, if you don't post pictures online, a description will suffice.
- [Year in Review: Goodbye, 2014 + Outfits of 2014 Part II](https://www.elleblogs.com/year-in-review-goodbye-2014-outfits-of/) - I did away with resolutions some years ago when I admitted that I am far too irresolute to commit to arbitrary shopping and health goals and don't have many atrocious vices aside from fast food and fast fashion. So the only thing that I've resolved to do better in the new year: be more willing
- [Year in Review: Goodbye, 2015 + Outfits of 2015](https://www.elleblogs.com/year-in-review-goodbye-2015-outfits-of/) - Compiling images for these year-end posts is always a strangely cathartic experience. I didn't explain my erratic posting schedule this year sooner because the timing always seemed off. But this post, the last post of 2015, might be the only time to share this: I lost my grandfather, to whom I was extremely close, early
- [Year In Review: Goodbye, 2017 + Outfits of 2017](https://www.elleblogs.com/year-in-review-goodbye-2017-outfits-of/) - Happy last day of 2017! 2017 has been... interesting, to say the least, and I am happy it's behind me, if that means different things are ahead. Thanks as always for your readership; sometimes I can't believe I kept this going for as long as I have, but I think I have more in me
- [Year in Review: GG, 2018 + Outfits of 2018](https://www.elleblogs.com/year-in-review-outfits-of-2018/) - 2018 was a pretty good blogging year for me, because I measure success by amount of content produced. As someone who is inclined to fall into months-long slumps of not wanting to take or edit a single photo, I feel persistence is a win in itself. (As always, images are linked to their respective posts

- [Honeylove](https://www.elleblogs.com/honeylove/) - Some featured pieces are gifted, but all product selection and opinions are my own. Even though this winter is shaping up to be rather bleak, I have been unusually hopeful. I am giddily dress-shopping for a good friend's spring wedding, cautiously swimwear-shopping for a warm-weather getaway, all the while continuing to shop for pieces that
- [J. Crew Cable-Knit Half-Zip Sweater](https://www.elleblogs.com/j-crew-cable-knit-half-zip-sweater/) - The half-zip sweater is one of my favorite knit trends this season. Part sporty and part preppy, this sweater can take you effortlessly from morning strolls to work Zoom calls. And the J. Crew cable-knit half-zip sweater seen here is a reasonably affordable mid-weight option that I like quite a bit, and is now 30%
- [Tunic Sweater (Again)](https://www.elleblogs.com/tunic-sweater/) - Versatile one-and-done pieces are a wardrobe essential for me; it's so convenient having pieces that you can turn to on days when everything feels like a struggle. The tunic sweater seen in this post (more tunic sweaters here) was one of my go-to pieces this fall; it requires (almost) no styling effort: the mock neckline
- [Fringe Sweater-Jacket & Wrap-Front Trousers](https://www.elleblogs.com/fringe-sweater-jacket/) - The photos in this post were taken a while back, but I find myself repeatedly turning to the same outfit formula: a printed or textured fitted top, a medium-weight tweed jacket (or plaid blazer), and bottoms with a loose silhouette; add a statement necklace if the color palette is monochrome or muted. The result is

And I think I've found a winner in the Longchamp Mini Le Pliage Canvas Backpack
- [Year in Review: Favorite Purchases of 2021](https://www.elleblogs.com/favorite-purchases-of-2021/) - It was with some consumerist guilt that I sat down to reflect on my purchases this year--I felt I bought too much, even if I managed to return all of what didn't fit or feel right; still, much remained. But I am grateful for the many conveniences and bouts of fun experimentation that they afforded

Still, there are some worthwhile sales for those who didn't quite find what they were looking for under the tree. I'll keep this post updated through the end of the year, so check back for new sales. ----------------- Abercrombie &

The ubiquitous polyester fabric now finds itself in both innerwear (see: fleece-lined warming gear) and outerwear (the beloved teddy bear coat). This fall, I have been loving cropped fleece jackets designed with multiple zippered pockets and in neon colorways. The pockets alone are enough of

I plan to gift this jewelry travel pouch (25% off today with code STOCKED) to a group of girlfriends this holiday season. ♥
- [Long Cozy Shirt Jacket](https://www.elleblogs.com/long-cozy-shirt-jacket/) - Are shackets still trendy? I couldn't tell you. But I am still wearing them. And as the weather cools, I am trading in hip-length shackets for longer ones, which I feel are a little more versatile than their shorter counterparts. They pair easily with a leather pant or a pair of denim, but will also

- [Sweater Vest Dress + Teddy Coat](https://www.elleblogs.com/sweater-vest-dress-teddy-coat/) - Dreary weather returned to the Northeast this week, making everything bleak. The wild temperature swings (and drier air resulting from indoor heating) have set my eczema aflame. To be kinder to my skin, I am prioritizing comfort above all: choosing warm but breathable fabrics, relaxed-fit everything, and plushy outerwear that I can retreat into when
- [A Chic (No-Sew) Way to Shorten a Sweater](https://www.elleblogs.com/no-sew-crop-sweater/) - Do you have a sweater tunic that is of an awkward, dated length? The one that doesn't quite cover your backside and also pairs poorly with all the high-waisted bottoms that you bought over the last year? The good news is that you can crop them easily with use of a torso-width piece of flat
- [Cable-Knit + Pleats](https://www.elleblogs.com/cable-knit-pleats/) - This plaid pleated midi skirt (from Zara and several seasons old) is one of my favorite things in the closet, and pairs easily with just about every knit top in my closet. If you are looking for something similar, here are a few more options to consider:
- [Little Black (Cutout) Dress](https://www.elleblogs.com/little-black-cutout-dress/) - A microtrend from the summer of "less is more" that I am continuing to embrace as we enter the cooler half of fall is cutouts. It's modern and a little daring, which is perfect for those looking to experiment with their emerging-from-a-pandemic style. One of my favorite buys from the last month is this mini

For this outfit, the necklace is also a unifying element through coordinating with the gold hardware on my bag and
- [Sweater on Sweater](https://www.elleblogs.com/sweater-on-sweater/) - Sweater dresses are a key part of lazy fall dressing. For a more formal occasion, pile on the costume jewelry and put on a pair of fitted knee-high boots; on the weekends, top with a shacket (or a sweater drape), and throw on your comfiest pair of slip-on sneakers. The sweater dress is simply effortless.
- [Lace Cuffs](https://www.elleblogs.com/lace-sleeves/) - One practical layering essential that doesn't get enough credit is the lace layering top; I really enjoy the visual interest they lend to an outfit. But if an all-lace base layer feels too frilly, try something like this henley top with lace cuffs. If you don't wear much jewelry around your wrist, a lace accent

I did manage to find a very similar (arguably with even better sleeves) and affordable option from Line & Dot for those of you looking for something similar. It pairs well with denim bottoms, and also looks great with
- [ASTRONOMICAL FALL](https://www.elleblogs.com/astronomical-fall/) - Happy first "official" day of fall! Because apple-picking season is upon us, and you may soon have a surplus of apples that you don't know what to do with, I want to share a video from NYT Cooking's YouTube channel titled "10 Ways to Apple Pie With Erin Jeanne McDowell." It's a glorious video that
- [Slip Skirt](https://www.elleblogs.com/amazon-drop-maya-slip-skirt-review/) - The heat broke this week, as we near the first day of fall. While I'll miss summer staples like crop tops and short shorts, there are some warm-weather pieces that I am determined to "autumnize," like slip skirts--the one that I am wearing here is very affordable and comes in 17 colorways; it fits slightly

- [Crop Top Season](https://www.elleblogs.com/crop-top-season/) - Were you one of the people who had been running around half-naked this summer? Because I was.

- [Dresses Lately](https://www.elleblogs.com/amazon-dresses/) - I have been spending freely on cheap thrills, as they sometimes help tame the boredom and repetition that define pandemic living.

- [New Prep](https://www.elleblogs.com/new-prep/) - Every summer I announce my intention to "play more tennis," but the truth is I just really like tennis outfits (sign me up for any clothing that's technical AND stylish).

A classic shirtdress in white, elevated with wrap leather belts, is a tried-and-true formula for the office (for variety, top with a lightweight textured or printed crop sweater). On the weekends, choose a frothy white sundress (and accessorize boldly) that's guaranteed to put you

I am also excited to wear it in cooler weather--perhaps layered under

I mean, for a (long) time in the early aughts, I was all about Juicy Couture terry cloth dresses with smocked bodices, so the nostalgia factor is there for me. But smocking can also really cheapen an article of clothing, so there's no

So I was very excited to find the Mott & Bow Noble Boxy Semi-Crop Tee, which is 100% cotton, incredibly soft, and the perfect length on 5'2 me. It's not inexpensive at $30, but with

- [Ruffled Cable Knit Sweater](https://www.elleblogs.com/ruffled-cable-knit-sweater/) - Sweaters are having a moment (as much as something this basic can). They went from something seen as fairly humble and utilitarian to suddenly being as aspirational as a designer handbag. For me, statement sweaters are a silver-bullet solution for (soul-crushingly) one-note cold-weather outfits. With a statement sweater, you can easily elevate even the most
- [Striped Sweater](https://www.elleblogs.com/striped-sweater/) - These photos were taken before the stay-home orders were issued As I now spend my days just putzing around my apartment, I have been wearing mostly oversized tops (like the striped sweater pictured in this post), which I have been trying to pass off as house dresses.

While I have made no fruit-picking plans this year, I thought I'd share five of my favorite orchards
- [Review: Theory Double-Face Wool-Cashmere Clairene Jacket](https://www.elleblogs.com/theory-wool-cashmere-clairene-jacket-review/) - These photos were taken before the stay-home orders were issued The open-front coat is a controversial item; it demands that its wearer consider this question: when is it cold enough to wear a coat, but warm enough to wear it open? But the question misses the point. The open-front coat exists "Because Fashion! Because the
- [Cropped Cardigan & Wide-Leg Pants](https://www.elleblogs.com/cropped-cardigan/) - Recent updates to the homely cardigan are a welcomed upgrade: I thoroughly enjoy the fitted, cropped silhouette. It's kind of a perfect transitional piece, no? On warmer days, pair it with a lighter bottom (like the wide-leg crop pants shown in this post); or wear it under chunkier knits on colder days. It's as effortless

- [Green Stripes & Yellow Bag](https://www.elleblogs.com/green-stripes-yellow-bag/) - One fashion trend that I don't see myself tiring of anytime soon is the wide leg crop pant: the right pair will round out any warm weather wardrobe. My favorite is still the Ann Taylor Wide Leg Marina Pant (last seen here), with pant-legs that are freeing, but not clownish. I already own five pairs
- [Printed Off-the-Shoulder Dress](https://www.elleblogs.com/printed-off-the-shoulder-dress/) - The official start of summer is still two weeks ago, but the sprinkling of 90-degree days heralds a scorcher of a summer. The question, as always, remains: what to wear? On the weekends, I have been loving the effortlessness of lightweight (and often flowy) printed dresses. They don't require much styling, and are as practical

At $88.00, the Palermo Blazer is reasonably-priced; if possible, coincide your purchase with a Shopbop store-wide event. It's no steal, though: The 100% polyester

It's always a fun one to browse, but popular sizes tend to sell out early, so I'd recommend placing your order sooner rather than later. And while return shipping is free, it is by mail, so tread very carefully if you are a
- [Review: Burberry Check Lined Camel Wool Cape](https://www.elleblogs.com/review-burberry-check-lined-camel-wool/) - After months of fruitless search (in part because no one in the Northern Hemisphere sells wool capes between April-August), I finally found a camel wool cape worthy of closer scrutiny. This search (for a cape) is one I resume half-heartedly every fall but inevitably put on the back burner because I have so many other

- [Bright White & Faux Tortoiseshell](https://www.elleblogs.com/bright-white-faux-tortoiseshell/) - Has the sleeveless button front dress become more ubiquitous than usual? Sure, it's a timeless style that gets recycled every year, but I am seeing it everywhere this spring. I am not complaining, though, as the current crop features slightly longer hemlines and a more streamlined shape, making them appealing to all age groups. Here

- [Trench Dress](https://www.elleblogs.com/trench-dress/) - While summer is undeniably my favorite season, spring in Connecticut (and in most places) is just magical, as every scene looks plucked from a Monet painting. And the pretty pastel palette of my surroundings has had a major influence in shaping my clothing choices. Lately all I've wanted to wear are outfits with a beige

Retail continues to teeter on the edge of
- [Twofold Marigold](https://www.elleblogs.com/twofold-marigold/) - This Racked article about the proliferation of British fast fashion retailers is jam-packed with information, but the thought that lingered in my mind was the argument that U.S. retailers are struggling because they are "conservative and safe" (does being conservative and safe render you necessarily boring or indistinct?) And I wondered if that idea merits

After spending the better part of a week in sunny South Carolina where spring arrived weeks ago, I returned to a Northeast very much still in the grip of winter. Having gotten a taste of warm weather, all I want to wear now are punchy florals
- [Casual Friday](https://www.elleblogs.com/casual-friday-outfit/) - As ready as I am for warm weather to return, I will miss cold-weather dressing: The ability to layer without restraint is how sartorial magic happens.

Unfortunately for me, the shoe fits my feet wrong in too many important ways (and the lack of a proper quarter doesn't allow for the use of cushions and other solutions). Thankfully, many "substitutes"

Time will tell how big of a mistake this is. ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ For

And I unsurprisingly gave news of the launch of Express Style Trial side-eye, as I feel Express is even less suited for the rental model than Ann Taylor. Why a
- [Weekend Uniform](https://www.elleblogs.com/weekend-uniform/) - I like to describe my own style as "classic with a twist," and what it entails is taking a classic (i.e., basic) combination and tweaking some of the elements to jazz up the look. Take an outfit comprising staples like a striped top and skinny jeans, which is my go-to for getting coffees or having
- [Wide-Leg Crop Pant](https://www.elleblogs.com/wide-leg-crop-pant/) - My favorite silhouette for spring is a loose, flared bottom. There's something inherently effortless about a wide-leg pant that will relax even the starchiest of outfits. And for anyone new to this genre of pant, adding even a pair to your closet will open up new pairing possibilities. Just in time for the "Friends of
- [Year in Review: Favorite Purchases of 2018](https://www.elleblogs.com/year-in-review-favorite-purchases-of-2018/) - 2018 has been the year of impulsive, frivolous purchases. Because nearly all of my big-ticket purchases didn't pan out, I ended up spending on many smaller, unplanned items. There are some gems, though, which I highlight below: -------------------- Quay Australia My Girl Sunglasses -------------------- Measured by the usual yardsticks of UV-protection and polarization, these Quay

- [Weekend Classics](https://www.elleblogs.com/weekend-classics/) - On the weekends, when I am not twirling around in a tutu, I can often be found in a long-sleeve fitted dress, tall boots, a light jacket, and maybe a printed scarf. This is a safe, if somewhat uninspired, combination. To break the monotony, I make sure that at least one element of my outfit
- [Weekend Link Roundup](https://www.elleblogs.com/weekend-link-roundup-17/) - ♥ A trend that I've considered dabbling in since last year is the ruffled sock (and statement socks more broadly). I like the idea of these socks worn with a seasonless white sneaker, but the only people who regularly wear them seem to be in pre-K. It doesn't help that that was the last time

- [Camel & Gray](https://www.elleblogs.com/camel-gray/) - I vaguely recall the windswept mid-fall day on which these outfit photos were taken: the dense foliage had only recently exploded with color (an oddity) after an unseasonably warm start to fall. I remember thinking to myself: self, relish this moment, because winter is coming. While December in the Northeast hasn't been especially brutal--it has

- [Happy Colors](https://www.elleblogs.com/happy-colors/) - The luxury goods sector is projected to grow modestly in 2017, but growth has proven uneven across the industry. Kering, or more specifically Gucci, is enjoying record profit, while sales growth continues to elude others. But no group feels a tighter squeeze than "affordable luxury": Michael Kors, Coach, Ralph Lauren, and their ilk. This group
- [Striped Sweater + Winter Parka](https://www.elleblogs.com/helly-hansen-svalbard-parka/) - If November is "the Norway of the year," then December is Alaska. (And January Antarctica.) Getting dressed ceases to be fun and instead becomes a logistical nightmare wherein I try to imagine an outfit for the day's highs (20) and lows (14), realize I can't (because going outside when it's below freezing is cruel), and
- [Review: J. Crew Harper Satchel in Italian Leather](https://www.elleblogs.com/review-j-crew-harper-satchel-in-italian-leather/) - The Harper Satchel, which comes in two sizes and a rainbow of autumn colors (in the mini), is part of J. Crew's fall "relaunch." Marketed as a "have-forever" bag, it's inoffensive and universal enough to be considered for addition to any wardrobe. As a bona fide J.Crew fangirl, I wasted no time ordering the bag
- [Weekly Shopping Update: Holiday Party Edition](https://www.elleblogs.com/holiday-party-dress/) - No one outfit will meet everyone's definition of "festive dressy," so here are dozens of options for those who are still shopping for party dresses. And while I don't personally use rental services like RTR--because I enjoy having a corner of my closet looking like a glitter bomb exploded there--it is not too late to
- [Plaid Coat (+ Rant: Infinite Style by Ann Taylor)](https://www.elleblogs.com/plaid-coat-rant-infinite-style-by-ann/) - Ann Taylor launched "Infinite Style" earlier this month with little fanfare. And while I would normally avoid forecasting a venture's future this early on, I am already 75% confident that Infinite Style will undergo this life cycle: continue to garner little attention, with subscription numbers that peter out, and eventually fold quietly. I thought about
- [Oversized Checked Topcoat (+ Mickey, WTF?!)](https://www.elleblogs.com/oversized-checked-topcoat-mickey-wtf/) - I wrote several sincere but ultimately meaningless paragraphs about my new coat, then decided my need to rant about J.

When Breath Becomes Air is short enough to read in one-sitting, but powerful enough to linger for days/months/years. It's
- [[Dressed Up] Sweatshirt](https://www.elleblogs.com/dressed-up-sweatshirt/) - Do you have a favorite college sweatshirt that you are struggling to elevate? (Not that everything in your closet must see the light of day.) My favorite way to wear these comfort pieces in cold weather is to top them with a patterned jacket to add visual interest.

I hope to resume posting outfits and other content next week. I've also updated the Bloomingdale's Deal Reveal post with more codes,
- [An Ode to the Caterpillar Coat](https://www.elleblogs.com/caterpillar-coat/) - A staff writer for The New Republic puzzled at length over full-length down coats in a piece titled "Against the Caterpillar Coat." She called these coats "totally unnecessary" and think they "make their wearers look bound at the knees, like they couldn’t take a large step over a puddle of snowmelt if called upon." She

I recently started wearing blue and gold with increased frequency without prompt but upon further reflection think my brother's college fan gear is to blame. Or maybe I am just highly suggestible. I've been known to wear some combination of red, white, and blue for the duration of

While it doesn't take me long to get ready, I budget just enough time to shower and get dressed, and can be thrown off my schedule by the smallest hiccup. One frustration to which I am

Dove Invisible Dry Spray Antiperspirant goes on invisible, leaving no white marks on 100 colors of clothing.

Crew Daphne Topcoat in Italian Tweed](https://www.elleblogs.com/review-j-crew-daphne-topcoat-in-italian-tweed/) - After months of dither, during which my size sold out, I was forced to pass on the J. Crew Daphne Topcoat in Italian Tweed last winter, a decision I sorely regretted. So imagine my delight when I found it in this fall's lineup. A statement coat, while not as "classic" as an olive green down coat
- [Red Wool Trench](https://www.elleblogs.com/red-wool-trench/) - Around this time every year is when I would start to complain incessantly about the cold, and vow to move somewhere subtropical. So I found it alarming that (so far) I've felt no urge to complain or plot my move. For the first time in a while, I really (really!) love late fall, frosted windshield

The basic premise is this: identify a flattering look, buy multiples of workhorse pieces, and wear the same look every day with minor tweaks. Depending on your trend tolerance, you could update your look seasonally (or never). For those looking to eliminate a major inconvenience from

It was a marquee piece in my bleisure wardrobe so I wanted to quickly review the item now that it's on sale (sale details below). What my outfits lack in bright colors, I try to make up in texture
- [Holiday Sweater Dress](https://www.elleblogs.com/holiday-sweater-dress/) - Over the next few weeks, I will be sharing several holiday looks centered on "wearable" everyday pieces, as holiday dressing doesn't necessarily entail glitter (okay, in this post, it does). Loosely speaking, holiday dressing can be distinguished in two ways: with color (red, green, gold); or with texture (velvet, sequins, brocade). If you incorporate just

This week, temperatures fell into the teens, bringing with it general misery. I gave serious thought to wearing snow pants to the office, but by the end of the morning's first hot chocolate, I was able to talk myself down to just wearing

- [Houndstooth Pants](https://www.elleblogs.com/houndstooth-pants/) - I went on a houndstooth bender (starting with this BP scarf) several weeks ago, and have since picked up several bottoms and accessories in this print. While the paper-bag pants featured here aren't technically in a classic houndstooth, I really like the fall color palette and the wide-pantleg. The material--84% polyester, 14% viscose, and 2%

- [Balloon + Pencil](https://www.elleblogs.com/balloon-pencil/) - Last week's winter storm wiped the fall colors that were exuberantly on display from the landscape, and left in its wake a bleak palette. While temperatures have actually rebounded from the month's lows, the disappearance of fall foliage is a bitter reminder that winter is near. And when it's cold, I dress to compensate for
- [Cold-Weather Essentials](https://www.elleblogs.com/cold-weather-essentials/) - Serious winter gear is unsexy: it's a corner of fashion that does not allow for much personal expression and is ruled by practicality. It's the stuff that is often unseen in an outfit post, but if you live in places with cold winters, they are the most crucial. ----------------------------- UGG SHEEPSKIN GLOVES ----------------------------- I hoard
- [Bubble Sleeves](https://www.elleblogs.com/bubble-sleeves/) - Statement sleeves are really fun, but they are not always practical. To get my feet wet in this trend, I first dabbled in bell sleeves, which did not mesh well with my pizza-eating, condiment-loving lifestyle. I then gave exaggerated cuffs a whirl, but those proved equally problematic. What finally sold me on statement sleeves are

- [Tunic → Dress](https://www.elleblogs.com/tunic-→-dress/) - In the right hands, tunics are infinitely wearable. Swap a standard-issue crewneck sweater for a tunic worn casually-tucked, and your skirt suit will instantly look 8x cooler; or throw it over some slinky wide-leg pants to join the menocore fun. My favorite way to wear a tunic is to wear it as a dress: all

Reversible Houndstooth & Grid Scarf pictured above is currently 45% off online (now just $14.90); I own it in both colorways (see the green multi on me here), and it is rather warm and very versatile because of the two sides.

- [Review: Hunter Original Tall Rain Boot](https://www.elleblogs.com/review-hunter-original-tall-rain-boots/) - A pair of tall rain boots is essential for surviving New England winters (a slight exaggeration, but not untrue). On the days following heavy snowfall, when the ground is a minefield of slush puddles that render UGG boots useless--those days are what rain boots are made for. Sure, before you can put your feet inside

Crew's "warmest coat ever," the Nordic Parka (available in two colors—olive and navy) quickly made my to-try list. After close to two decades of northeast living, I should be an expert winter survivalist but I am still on the prowl for the next outerwear unicorn, i.e., a coat that is exceptionally warm,

Crew No. 2 Pencil Skirt in Double-Serge Wool](https://www.elleblogs.com/j-crew-petite-no-2-pencil-skirt-in/) - I feel less guilty when I splurge on "work" clothes so that splinter accounts for a huge chunk of my clothing bill every month. My latest splurge are these neon colored pencil skirts from J. Crew. I didn't get a very good discount on them but expect to get quite a bit of wear out

- [Fall Pairing: Sweater Dress + Tall Boots](https://www.elleblogs.com/fall-pairing-sweater-dress-tall-boots/) - In cooler weather, battle-scarred veterans of harsh winters know to dress in cozy, peelable layers (with some exceptions); the irritation of freezing one minute then overheating the next is all too familiar to those who work outside the home. While current temperatures (low-40s to high-50s) do not necessitate puffer jackets or Uniqlo Heattech, this temperature swing

The bag and apparel additions are worth a look, and I finally ordered the Clara Flat, which has been on my wishlist, even though it looks wildly impractical (the bows touch the ground; *sigh*).
- [When In Doubt, Add Light Brown](https://www.elleblogs.com/when-in-doubt-add-light-brown/) - Burgundy-and-navy is one of my favorite fall color combinations, but an outfit comprising just these two colors can seem visually heavy. The solution? Add a light neutral. My go-to neutral is light brown, a natural complement to dark colors and one-note color schemes. When I am dressed in all-white or all-black, a textured light brown
- [Hong Kong Food Diary](https://www.elleblogs.com/hong-kong-food-diary/) - As blog content has once again grown kind of light--with pending blog posts in various (early) stages of completion--I thought I'd share some photos from a recent trip to Hong Kong, a city I visited frequently as a kid, but haven't returned to in several years. As I wasn't diligent about photographing every meal, I've

- [Cap Sleeves (+ J. Crew Resumé Dress Review)](https://www.elleblogs.com/cap-sleeves-j-crew-resume-dress-review/) - In recent years I've stopped purchasing suits and separates for work, and instead have been focused on amassing racks of sheath dresses. Beyond removing variables from the getting-ready-in-a-time-crunch equation, I also no longer have to concern myself with how neatly my shirt is tucked into my skirt. I am especially fond of dresses with cap
- [Rider (+ J. Crew Rider Bag Review)](https://www.elleblogs.com/rider-j-crew-rider-bag-review/) - From flared trousers to clunky platforms, 70s trends are having a moment. Saddlebags, one of the era's key accessories, can now be found as easily at big box stores as on runways. I almost purchased the Chloé Small Marcie Leather Crossbody Bag last year (and test-drove one from a friend's collection for a few weeks

- [Day to Night: Club Monaco Colby Scalloped Dress Review](https://www.elleblogs.com/day-to-night-club-monaco-colby/) - A day to night dress is conceptually ambiguous, since there are no laws prescribing which dress can be worn when—that gold-sequined bodycon dress most people reserve for NYE parties could be a day dress, if you dare. For me, a day to night dress is something that I could wear to work, and then continue

- [Review: J.Crew Academy Loafers in Leather (Now On Sale)](https://www.elleblogs.com/review-jcrew-academy-loafers-in-leather/) - I often lament to anyone who will listen that J. Crew should be focused on developing its line of seasonless staples, instead of expending most of its energy on overly trendy styles like this multicolored "bib" necklace. J. Crew's fall collection is mostly devoid of frills that likely won't stand the test of time, but

Crew's sale section just got a big refresher and everything is an extra 50% off with code GOTIME. Please note that most items are rendered final sale with the code, so take that into consideration before you check out. The Signet Flap Bag that I reviewed here is now on super sale in two
- [Review: J. Crew Perfect RainJacket](https://www.elleblogs.com/review-j-crew-perfect-rainjacket/) - I relinquished (for good) my much-loved Helly Hansen yellow raincoat to my mom the last time she "borrowed" it for months on end. And the search for a new yellow raincoat is on! After trying on a few different styles (of which the Joules Right as Rain Waterproof Hooded Jacket was a close runnerup), I
- [Review: Rachel Zoe Suzette Lace Dress + Estelle Open-Back Lace Gown](https://www.elleblogs.com/review-rachel-zoe-suzette-lace-dress/) - Longtime readers of this blog know that I collect special-occasion dresses with fervor. But, as I normally advise those who email me looking for recommendations, there's a reason dress rental services like Rent the Runway exist (and thrive!): few people want to be photographed in the same dress twice. However, there is value in having
- [Bows (+ Burberry Brit Bowpark Raincoat Review)](https://www.elleblogs.com/bows-burberry-brit-bowpark-raincoat/) - It rains infrequently in Connecticut, where I live. Even in especially wet springs, the average monthly rainfall doesn't exceed five inches. This amount of rain (or lack thereof) made it difficult to justify spending several hundred dollars on a designer raincoat, but I couldn't be dissuaded. For those who live in rainier places and value
- [Review: Burberry Sandringham Fit Cashmere Trench Coat](https://www.elleblogs.com/review-burberry-sandringham-fit/) - Christopher Bailey, head honcho of Burberry, announced early last month that the brand is moving to consolidate Burberry Prorsum, Burberry London, and Burberry Brit into one unified brand—Burberry—by the end of 2016. This announcement bears only the surprise of timing; it is part of a growing movement to prune—through consolidation, elimination, or reintegration—diffusion brands: Marc
- [Review: Burberry London Kensington Fit Wool Cashmere Trench Coat in Camel](https://www.elleblogs.com/review-burberry-london-kensington-fit/) - Despite having every intention of keeping this Burberry coat, in the end I didn't think it met enough of my criteria to earn a place in my overstuffed closet (I also admit that I subject luxury items to a higher level of scrutiny). The double-breasted style, smart point collar, and detachable medium-width belt with a
- [Burberry Wool Duffle Coat Review (Minstead & Paddlesdale)](https://www.elleblogs.com/burberry-duffle-coat-review-minstead/) - And the coat search continues! My second stop was Burberry, of whom I am a big fan. Were it not for Burberry's steep retail prices, I would own more of it in my closet. Both styles reviewed in the post are great options for those in the market for duffle coats. The Minstead Duffle Coat

- [Review : J. Crew Coats : Wool-Cashmere Icon Trench / Wool Melton Duffle Coat / Long Belted Puffer / Wool Melton Toggle Coat](https://www.elleblogs.com/review-j-crew-coats-wool-cashmere-icon/) - I live in a part of the world where four months of harsh winter is the norm and for that I give myself a free pass on gratuitous coat purchases. For the brave, winter mornings are a time to show their mettle but for me, the first step--getting dressed--is the most difficult. Little things like
- [Review: J. Crew Chateau Parka in Stadium-Cloth](https://www.elleblogs.com/review-j-crew-chateau-parka-in-stadium/) - It's outerwear review season again! First up is the J. Crew Chateau Parka, which sold like hotcakes last year and has been brought back in eleven (!!!) colors this year. The navy pictured here is from 2014 and is, surprisingly, not a color that is available this year. There's a lot to like about the
- [Wrap-Tie Jumpsuit](https://www.elleblogs.com/wrap-tie-jumpsuit/) - There were a few weeks in late summer during which multiple work projects simultaneously kicked into high gear for me, and when one day blurred into another in my tired mind. I am usually a unit when it comes to making returns (i.e., heavy-duty tape gun in car and return forms in color-coded folders) but,

Just a short post today to share a great sale: everything is 50% off (with no-minimum free shipping) at Ann Taylor until midnight PST tonight (10/22/18) with code HURRYUP. The Ankle Pant in Plaid (available online in two colorways) that I am wearing here is a versatile option for work, but the off-the-rack fit
- [Yellow Trench](https://www.elleblogs.com/yellow-trench/) - The drape-front trench appeared on store racks again this season, and I am happy to embrace this trend. Since around 2014, this less-structured alternative to "classic" trench coats has given the wardrobe staple more movement and a softer look. Just as I find stiff trench coats to be a perfect foil for flowy dresses and
- [Best Week](https://www.elleblogs.com/best-week/) - There is a week in spring, just before the start of allergy season, that is absolutely magical. It usually follows a cold and rainy spell; then overnight, the clouds disperse and the cherry blossoms bloom. And the world looks like it's been staged for a Wes Anderson film. There is a similarly perfect week (or
- [Desk to Dinner: Ann Taylor Button Cuff Wrap Dress](https://www.elleblogs.com/desk-to-dinner-ann-taylor-button-cuff-wrap-dress/) - Ann Taylor brought back one of my favorite desk-to-dinner pieces--the button cuff wrap dress--this season in three colorways. This slinky number is comfortable to wear and easy to dress up (and down). For work I often layer a tonal camisole underneath to raise the neckline, and accessorize with a simple necklace. And on the weekends you

Crew's Tie-Neck Dress in Italian Wool was one of my favorite purchases last fall, and while I was happy to see the design brought back earlier this year in a "365 crepe" in three colorways, I was disappointed by the polyester blend, which cheapens an otherwise classic design. I kept this dress because I missed
- [Cape (J. Crew Toggle Cape in Wool-Cashmere Review)](https://www.elleblogs.com/cape-j-crew-toggle-cape-in-wool/) - I've started every fall in recent memory with a frantic cape search (one that normally comes up empty), but got lucky this season with the purchase of J. Crew's Toggle Cape in Wool-Cashmere (available in two colors). The material is a medium-weight felted wool; it is substantial, but perhaps best suited for moderate temperatures (40°-70°F),

Running is a welcomed break from gadget dependency and often the only time in my day when I am not tethered to my web-enabled network. I liken running to reading, which are both experiences best
- [Weekend Fur](https://www.elleblogs.com/weekend-fur/) - The Classic Fur Coat (last seen here) that I am wearing here sold out quickly online, but its doppelgänger can currently be found on sale at Urban Outfitters (FP is a subsidiary) as a men's coat. I like this (impossibly) plushy coat so much it's found a permanent home in my car, where I can

I originally planned a word-themed "fun facts roundup" for today, but that post disappeared from my drafts folder, and I didn't notice far enough in advance to replace it. As I have too many favorite words to choose from to highlight, I will instead leave this link for an AskReddit question
- [Buyer's Remorse](https://www.elleblogs.com/buyers-remorse/) - I had naively thought, right after I graduated from college, that I could continue to get by on the two suits--one skirt-suit and one pantsuit--that I wore on repeat for summer jobs. That plan quickly crumbled as I grew bored and increasingly desperate for variety. My blog was born out of that desperation: it was
- [The Fall Standard (+ Unpeelable Layers)](https://www.elleblogs.com/the-fall-standard-unpeelable-layers/) - This fall I've traded silk for knits and tulle for denim. There are days when I look in the mirror and ask: Who are you and why are you not wearing a tutu? I am hoping this "practical" phase is transitory and that I'll be running around in the snow in my many tulle skirts

The article mentioned JCPenney's failed experiment, which I had nearly forgotten

Crew: same-store sales declined another 14%, and bankruptcy rumors have been swirling around after the release of its most recent 10-K filing last month. So, out of a misguided sense of chivalry, I have been trying to single-handedly boost J. Crew to profitability. While I

But I liked the color and the weight of the fabric (even if the material--36% Viscose,

- [Aurate Gold Necklaces](https://www.elleblogs.com/aurate-gold-necklaces/) - As much as I enjoy the drama of costume jewelry, for everyday I opt for the gold chains of Aurate--they are light enough to stack (for added versatility) but make enough of a statement that my neckline never feels boring.

My natural inclination toward procrastination, coupled with general forgetfulness, also ensures that I always pack at the last minute, which inevitably leads to my forgetting something (always minor but inevitably causes anxiety). But if adulthood has taught me anything about travel, it's that nothing is indispensable aside from ID-money-phone-charger-glasses-jacket-and-comfortable shoes.

The only major fit issue that I have had to contend with is the tank strap length, which is too long on
- [UGG Mini II Boots vs UGG Mini Platform Boots](https://www.elleblogs.com/ugg-mini-boots-vs-ugg-mini-platform-boots/) - As someone who enjoys microtrends, but is often slow to adopt them, the swiftness with which I sought out my first pair of platform UGGs surprised even me. And judging from retailers' inability to keep these shoes in stock, I am guessing I am not the only person compelled to action by these new additions
- [Alice + Olivia Kitty Bow Front Sweater Dress Review](https://www.elleblogs.com/alice-olivia-kitty-sweater-dress-review/) - A new addition to my collection of trophy pieces is Alice + Olivia's Kitty Bow Front Sweater Dress. It is a whole outfit and the best kind of trend salad, with puff sleeves, contrasting bow details, a circle-y skirt, and countless mini bobbles on a classic knit pattern; whether or not these elements work together
- [Canada Goose Trillium Parka Review](https://www.elleblogs.com/canada-goose-trillium-parka-review/) - Another winter storm, another winter coat review. Single-digit weather made impossible any outfit that doesn't include at least one bulky item, which isn't to say that you should resign yourself to looking like Michelin Man (but it's not like you are committing some kind of sartorial sin if you do; just do you). As promised,

It's easy for oversized styles to overwhelm, and for slouchy cuts to look sloppy, but the Ottoman Tunic manages to avoid both. I wear this tunic almost exclusively with the Uniqlo HEATTECH Ultra Stretch Leggings Pant (reviewed here)

Crew fans know the "lady jacket" well: this square classic is frequently offered in wool and tweed for in-between season, and it is one design that I must try every time it's on offer. I was a little slow to order this fall's designs--during my indecision smaller sizes of the Odette Sweater Lady

It is especially great for those who have a defined waistline but who prefer to cover their back, shoulder, or upper arm. I purchased this dress for a wedding that ended up being moved to Zoom,
- [The Drop Brit Tiered Ankle Maxi Tent Dress Review](https://www.elleblogs.com/the-drop-brit-tiered-ankle-maxi-tent-dress-review/) - Tent dresses, despite their unfortunate name, have become a warm-weather staple in recent years.
