I’m wearing the Quince Mongolian Cashmere Boxy Crewneck Sweater ($80) in faded denim, size small.
My size: 5’7”, usually 26 jeans, 0-4 in US sizes.

I get a lot of questions about Jenni Kayne, and the similarities to Everlane always struck me. For Black Friday, I’m sharing these twins with you so you can decide.

A lot of the difference comes down to the images. Jenni Kayne’s models tend to wear the cardigan without a layer underneath, and the photos at Everlane and Quince are styled more like practical work outfits.

J.Crew’s going out pieces have been so strong this year. Most of these work for day as well, and it’s easy to combine them with your own staples.

* The jeans and a silk blouse plus a mid-thigh coat
* The chain-trim jacket over a cami with midi and boots
* The embellished top with a mini skirt and the shoes you’ve been dying to show off

How can you tell luxury without looking at the price?

These are important aspects to examine. Here are some tricks to spot quality issues.

1. Stitches
2. Reinforcement
3. Leather quality
4. Hardware
5. Sole
6. Shape

Some of my favorite cashmere sweaters are on sale!

The Nordstrom’s sweater is lightweight and very beautifully done. It’s got a delicate, gorgeous drape. Bloomingdale’s cashmere is a pass and not in the same category.

Uniqlo has the best classic sweater - i scrunch up the sleeves and play with the waist to modernize it. Lots of colors are on sale.

And a bunch of excellent Banana Republic cashmere sweaters are on sale, with an extra 20% off.

I’m wearing the polo sweater from Banana Republic from last year, size small.

Bottom left: Uniqlo sweater, size small, 73 purple (which is not on sale).

I’m 5’7” and wear sizes 0-4, or a small.

Yayyy! My favorites at Massimo Dutti are on sale!

The trench in my usual size S was too small (shoulders too tight). I’m getting it in a medium.

My shoe size is 38.5. The correct way for me to order their shoes in the US: size 8. The shoes are marked eu 39, which is my usual strategy for full sizes and fits well here. I first ordered size 39 on the website, and they shipped size 40 eu, which was too big. I love their shoes.

I’m wearing size small in the abstract leopard midi, and the top in size small is great, too (it’s a relaxed fit).

I’m getting the capris! Glad they’re back in stock. I missed out on them last spring.

My size: 5’7”, usually 26 jeans, 0-4 in US sizes.

I love these trends because they’re wearable and aspirational at the same time.

I’m wearing:
* Club Monaco Helek Silk Shirt, Blanc De Blanc/Casse, size small
* J.Crew Signature gold-link necklace
* J.Crew Sugar disco hoops, crystal (they are so light and comfortable! But the back feels stuck so I’m using a plastic back from Amazon)

I loved the fit unless otherwise noted:
Ruffled Mini Dress (like Chloé), $179, blush pink, size S
Flared-Sleeve Sequin Top, $179, size S
Flared-Sleeve Sequin Trousers, $179, size 2
Fringed Sequin Top, $219, size 4, was okay but I also could have sized down to 2
Fringed Sequin Midi Skirt, $259, size 2
Asymmetric Cowl-Neck Midi Dress, $139: tried on size 4, and I should have sized down to 2

Pass:
Bias-Cut Satin Midi Dress, $149, 100% acetate

Not in video:
Sequined Mini Shift Dress, $179, size S – love that the zipper is long enough to walk into the dress. No need to pull it on overhead. Great shoulder pads.

My size: 5’7”, usually 26 jeans, 0-4 in US sizes.#dress #classicstyle

Love this combination: a sparkly lady jacket with sailor jeans. I’m partial to my sailor jeans in velvet, but any dark jean would look great.

I saw this J.Crew jacket in person. It’s well done. The trims look good, too. I love that my Mango jacket is soft, so it drapes well. Wear it closed to avoid the warping along the edges.

My outfit:
Mango Sequin jacket with pockets, size small
Citizens of Humanity Loli Velvet High-Rise Wide-Leg Jeans, Burgundy size 26

I’m wearing 100mm Jimmy Choo heels to work with the hem of the jeans.

My size: 5’7”, usually 26 jeans, 0-4 in US sizes.

I love shearling a lot, both as a cozy winter staple and for cooler summer days with a Malibu vibe.

Shearling is the gift of warmth, and we’ve got so many great options on sale. I did my best to narrow them down to the best of the best in terms of quality and value, faux included. #LTKFindaUnder50 #shearling #ugg

It’s so worth it, right? I really enjoy using the LED mask, and consistency is key with it. I’m adding some sheet masks faves here. I think these all work about the same.

The mask i used last night is the retinol serum mask from #OOTD. My faves for the last few years are from JMSolution, so I’m adding them here.

Essentials are too boring as gifts, but we do want people to use what we get them, right? These are all a luxury to use.

Even someone who has a lot of brushes would appreciate this set from Rephr. They’re Japanese brushes that have specialized proportions, and yet now I find them essential. They’re my go-to daily.

The beauty pouch is giving YSL and is also hilarious - the label says QUILTY PLEASURE.
