The Unlikeliest Style Source

Maybe it’s because I spent a few too many summer afternoons in a Midwest garage that hosted adult parties to the tune of rock and roll, maybe it’s because my signature move was to be a “pleasure to have in class” and I’m on a life-long journey to subvert this version of myself, and maybe it’s just because it’s simply that good, but one of my biggest sartorial influences is that of the 80s punk rocker.  In this very specific case, a la Johnny Ramone.

Is it me or does this look just as wearable right now (or even more so?) than the year it was taken?  

Facing an un-rock-and-roll day of editing and minutiae, I decided to at least let my outfit have some fun.

Summer Weekend Packing!

I’m heading over the pass for a much needed weekend away with @thedigs.co! Right in time for our first big heat wave, and honestly I’m READY. The whole Cle Elum/Roslyn/Suncadia area is always so magical. The last time we stayed it was winter, so I’m ready to soak up some sun and long and slow sunsets with my family. Now that there are four of us with different sleep needs and schedules, having a whole Airbnb house to ourselves is pretty essential. The Digs houses always have everything we need and are set up so well for families.

Here’s what I’m packing from day to night to exploring to poolside. Follow along with me all weekend as I vlog our trip!

Welcoming Spring with Everlane

I’ve loved Everlane for years for their quality basics that feel timeless. They have such a knack for classic design that feels elevated and casual at once. I was really excited to level up my spring wardrobe with a few additions. Seattle springs can be a slow crawl, and layering is always key. I was excited to trade out my raincoat for this fresh trench in a classic checkerboard pattern. It makes a plain white tee and jeans feel really special!

As a stylist, I love being able to reach for essential, wardrobe-building pieces like these for myself and my clients. Everlane pieces are core building blocks for a wardrobe. Once that foundation is built, you can add in pieces and shop easily without having that “but what will I wear this with?” moment.

Here are the pieces that Everlane kindly gifted me:

Trench

Tee

Jeans

Flats

The trench was perfect for pastries and a stroll when my friend Lora came to visit!
