Trying The New Jeans Everyone Has

in ,

Trying my very first Amo denim that I picked up from Evereve last night. I spent years working with Evereve so it’s fun to go back now as a customer and see what the amazing buying team rounds up.

These are miracle jeans, to put it shortly. Soft and structured, stretch and hold. I’ve been wanting to add some kick flares to my rotation and I think the little front pockets are so cute.

I actually loved this with the silk tank alone, which I’ll remember for our next date night. But today I’m styling it for errands and work, so this Sezane sweatshirt is the perfect thing. I’ve also been wearing my white Everlane loafers nonstop and love them both with the black tank look alone or as a full styled look.

I’ve never felt more ready for fall fashion and I have tons of ideas coming your way!

I Tried Twisting My Shirt

in

The buttondown gets top billing for most versatile wardrobe piece, and for good reason. Today I was feeling creative and decided to try something a little different with my shirt styling. I twisted it and tucked it in over a simple tank to create more of an open blouse look. I don’t usually tend toward artsy styling tricks but today it just felt right. It felt a little more special (and definitely more casual) than buttoned and tucked. I try not to be too fussy with my styling since I hate adjusting my clothing all day long. But, I can say that this twist held up to a photoshoot I did this morning and it didn’t drive me crazy! After the shoot my family and I took a quick trip to the zoo, and I swapped the shoes out for Birks but still felt very cool mom.

Six Outfits I'm Wearing on Repeat

in ,

This morning I woke up to a fresh coat of raindrops on the ground and windowsills. The air is cool and weaves through your hair, reaching directly into my soul and reminding me of the magic of Seattle and the PNW pre-fall time. Though I’m not ready to let go of this summer, I’m here fully for the cooler mornings and the chance to feel renewed by the cool breeze and scent of fresh earth.

This month I’m enjoying transitional style in my everyday fashion. You might need a sweater in the mornings or evenings, and it’s fun to reintroduce layering into my everyday routine. Here are six outfits that I’m wearing mixed and matched and on repeat:

What's After Coastal Grandmother?

in ,

You may wonder what happens when you reach pinnacle coastal grandmother status. The pant legs are wide, the proportions breezy, the layers interchangeable: what else could be better? Coastal Grandfather. That’s the answer. You might catch a late morning tee time, you might swing through a car wash after getting a crisp haircut, you might sit on a leather armchair and contemplate your investment strategy. It’s all smooth sailing from here.

Everlane is having their 4th of July sale starting Friday, July 1st, where you can grab some of your own coastal grandfather essentials for all the teetimes ahead.
