There’s something so buoying about receiving a complement from a stranger. Yesterday I was waiting in line at the grocery store when an dapper elderly gentleman told me, “It’s nice to see someone dressing so stylishly for this cold weather we’re having.” Indeed, LA has been experiencing a serious drop in temperatures (as low as 40 […]
The Science of Fashion: Styling the Everyday Statement Coat
Happy Monday! I’m writing this blog post through the inevitable fuzzy haze of a red-eye flight. After spending the weekend unpacking and getting settled in the new house, I hopped a plane to Toronto where I’ll be visiting my parents for a few days. The trip was booked on a whim, the result of some […]

Oh boy, you guys, do I have a good one in my Science of Fashion Series for you today!

The Science of Fashion: Relaxed Fall Layers
Moving slowly over here today, still trying to shake off the haze of yesterday. All I want to do is read the news, connect with friends and family, step into the action that I declared in reflections on the election results. Because clearly we in America have a lot of work to do. But that work […]

Hooray for Friday! I’m jumping for joy about the weekend. Though I’m working all weekend—with a photo shoot, a mentoring session, and an event at Light Lab—I’m thrilled that I’ll be able to concentrate on those things without my inbox piling up while my back is turned! Oh, and you know what else I’m thrilled […]

Happy Friday, everyone! Just in time for some weekend style inspiration, I’ve got another post in my Science of Fashion series with Catherine of The Life Styled! One of my hands-down most important closet staples for any season is a perfect white button down, and I’ve got a few that I rotate with my favorite jeans for fall. But the […]
The Science of Fashion: How to Wear a Summer Dress in the Fall
Heaven knows I love a good sale, and I’m definitely no stranger to stalking a pair of shoes or a sweater throughout the season until the discounts hit. The trouble is, of course, that once you nab your prey, the number of weeks you can wear it before the temperatures change are often short and bittersweet! That’s exactly […]
The Science of Fashion: How to Transition From Summer to Fall Fashion with The Life Styled
All year I’ve been reciting the same refrain: I have a closet full of great clothes but wear only a small percentage of them. I’m in a rut born of convenience, reaching for a few basic items on repeat and styling them with zero imagination. It’s a pattern that I’ll bet a lot of us stumble into! […]
