Dads are the best. I’m looking forward to spending quality time with my family this weekend and celebrating both Father’s Day and my dad’s birthday. I hope you all take a moment to remind your dads how much you love them.

Nili Lotan is a somewhat new-to-me designer and I like what I am seeing. Her designs seem to be made up of uniform pieces (button downs, jeans, blazers, sweaters) in a black and white color palette. I love her use of longline shorts and I am in agreement that they can be dressed up or down – see my post here.

Ralph Lauren is incredibly chic and I cannot imagine American fashion without him. Whether he is dressed in denim on denim (on denim), in a shirt and tie, or a tuxedo, he exudes the American Dream lifestyle that he has built and defined throughout the course of his life. I highly recommend HBO’s 2019 documentary, Very Ralph, if you haven’t already tuned in.
I only have one swimsuit in my wardrobe: this one from J. Crew. I have it in black, charcoal, navy and white and truly feel as though I am set for the next decade – it is easy, timeless and chic. I can throw on an oversized dress, denim shorts and a button down or tie a sarong around my waist and I’m all set.
Chloe Eau de Parfum is part of my daily routine. I keep the roller ball in my purse, the 1.7 oz in my travel bag and the 4.2 oz in my vanity. I apply it every single day, whether I’m leaving the house or not. A friend of mine recently smelled Chloe Eau de Parfum in the elevator of a wedding venue and knew that I was there. What can I say, it’s my signature scent.

I’m heading to the beach today for a much needed girls weekend – looking forward to a great time. I’m packing easy dresses, flip flops, classic black one pieces and my Hermes Oran sandals. I’ve been swooning over this open book display rack, but I’m slightly impatient and can’t wait for the long lead-time. I’ve asked my stepdad to make one so that I can stain it the color of my choosing.

In the latest issue of Vogue, Hamish Bowles writes about how much he misses live fashion shows. He mentions Donna Karan’s Seven Easy Pieces show in 1985, which immediately sent me down a rabbit hole. This is one of the first capsule wardrobes on record, and I would still wear these pieces today.

We can all agree that Elin Kling, the mastermind behind Toteme, is a style icon. Everything she wears – and designs – is effortless, chic and timeless. Elin got me back into polo necklines and I’m very grateful.

I found Khaite’s Ashland ballet flats on sale here and can’t stop thinking about them. They might not be considered a forever piece, but they would be a practical addition to my wardrobe. I love a good black flat and these fit the bill.

A sleek, low bun is one of my go to hairstyles, which I am thankful for during the recent heat and humidity. Whether I’m running errands or attending a wedding, it always makes me feel polished and put together.
