True story: In the 8th grade, I desperately wanted to shop for clothes at a thrift store. I mean, it was 1994 and everyone was doing it. My mom had her feelings about secondhand clothing, and since she controlled the pursestrings it was outfits from Gap Kids for me. But I was obsessed with finding a […]
One of our favorite parts of doing Two Girls, One Kit is having an excuse to explore all the amazing independent fashion labels out there! The web has enabled so many designers to get their names and products out to consumers in a way that simply wasn’t possible before the Internet (and especially Instagram) made it […]
Caroline and I realized recently that we’ve never featured a shoe label on Two Girls, One Kit! It’s a crime, really, because if anyone knows how a great pair of shoes can make an outfit, it’s this diehard minimalist dresser. When your closet is full of jeans, tees, and button downs in monochromatic solids, a show-stopping shoe wardrobe is essential […]
This week’s Two Girls, One Kit pays homage to the dark horse wardrobe essential of the last several seasons. If you’ve not invested in a long vest yet, then move it to the top of your shopping list because boy, howdy, are you gonna wonder how you ever lived without one! It truly is the […]
If last week’s installment of Two Girls, One Kit was all about stepping outside our fashion comfort zone, then this week’s has two sneakered feet firmly entrenched in familiar territory! While I’m all for exploring and getting creative with my outfits, sometimes a girl just wants to throw on old favorites and go. But of course […]
Giveaways are kind of like swear words: They make the most impact when used infrequently and at exactly the right moment. I myself save giveaways for those rare occasions when there’s something really good in the offing, which is exactly the case this weekend! You all know what a big fan I am of Accompany, the online […]
Today’s installment of Two Girls, One Kit perfectly exemplifies why Caroline and I started this series in the first place. It’s so easy to get into fashion rut, wearing the same things day in and day out, seeing pieces that intrigue you but writing them off as ‘not your style’. Our goal was to push […]
Maybe it’s that I’m three weeks out from my wedding, or maybe it’s because I’m about to hit the leeward side of my 30’s. Whatever the reason, I’m lately a fiend for all things skincare related! I bought a huge white visor to keep in the car for when I’m in the car (which is like, […]
When I was in Florence last year I just happened to be there for Pitto Uomo, which is basically like NYFW but for menswear. The city, which is notoriously stylish to begin with, was overrun by men and women dressed to the nines in the height of sartorial splendor. There was one group of girls I kept running […]
It’s that time of the week again: we’ve got another installment of Two Girls, One Kit on the docket! I’m especially excited about this one because I love giving a shoutout to old friends doing big, new things—and the ethical style shopping site Accompany is very big indeed! Accompany was founded my former coworker Jason Keehn, who […]
As tends to happen with the change of season, I was taking stock of my closet recently. I purge pretty regularly since we don’t have much storage space, and after several trips to the consignment store this winter I’ve landed on a pretty tightly edited wardrobe of black, white, black, grey, black, and the occasional splash […]
It’s Tuesday, time for our weekly installment of Two Girls, One Kit! While most of the country has been bracing itself for snow and blustery gales, we’re enjoying some unseasonably warm temps here in LA. It’s got us reaching for shorts and tees well before we expected to, and it means that the light and […]
