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

Need a quick outfit change for holiday parties? I love these pieces. The fabrications are rich, and the shapes are easygoing. Perfection. #mini #sequins #classicstyle

I love the Cos Cavatelli bag. The leather is gorgeous and has a luxe hand feel. The faux fur version is ridiculously soft, and it’s such an unexpected evening piece.

And now, they introduced suede in a rich chocolate brown. It’s so good.

Loving turtleneck sweaters this month! I would have never guessed it, but this yak one is soft enough for me to forget I’m wearing a turtleneck.

I’m wearing the jeans in size 26 and the sweater size small, both my usual sizes. I’m 5’7”.

Come to think of it, the wide Banana Republic ponte pant would be a great sub for the espresso jeans. I sized down for the wide ponte pants, so XS .

Wearing the Manolo Blahnik Buxton boot, which I can’t find here to link. I’ve got alternatives that I love #sweater #classicstyle

#LTKSeasonal #LTKFindsUnder100

I’m wearing
* Quince 100% Yak Wool Turtleneck Sweater, heather brown, size small

* Everlane The Cardigan in Ultrasoft Merino, navy, size small

* Banana Republic Luxe Wool-Blend Off-Shoulder Top, black, size small

* Quince Washable Stretch Silk V-Neck Cami, black, size small

* Uniqlo Cashmere Sweater, 73 purple, size small

I didn’t mean for my leggings to show, but here we are. They’re from Aerie, and they have fleece inside. I’m including the current version bc mine are old.

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

Love this top! I’m wearing a size small, my usual size.

Could not art direct this moment better than it actually unfolded: the balloons are everything.

Wearing the Quince yak turtleneck sweater in size small. It is so soft! I am sensitive around the neck.

My moissanite stud earrings are 9mm diameter & 3 carats each, so 6 carats total weight for the pair.

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

Party and party-adjacent picks from Banana Republic!

I’m wearing the Citizens of Humanity Lolli velvet pants in size 26 with the sequin Mango jacket size small (but the J.Crew one is more precisely done).

My cropped white shirt is size small
Wide ponte pants size XS, I went down a size for a tighter fit.

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

As of today, the price of gold is $85.61 per gram, and sterling silver is $0.9904 per gram. It’s fascinating to compare the price of jewelry from new to preloved, and I appreciate that The Real Real lists the weight in grams for each piece.

1. Hermes’ necklace is 18k gold. J.Crew’s pieces are brass, gold-plated recycled zinc, and cubic zirconia.

2. Both Hermes and Etsy use sterling silver. The Etsy mariner necklaces are come in 4.6mm to 14mm; the Hermès necklace is 10mm wide.

3. The Herakles Knot Ring from The Met Store is 14K gold plate over 925 Sterling silver base. Hermès’ ring is 18k gold.

4. The Hermès bracelet is sterling silver, and Mango is 100% zinc.

5. The Hermès necklace is 18k gold, and Mango uses 85% brass, 8% stainless steel, 5% zinc, 2% acrylic.

Lots of brands have mariner chain necklaces now, but J.Crew’s gold tone is warm, rich, and beautiful. Cos looks a bit too green to me.#classicstyle #hermes #jewelry#LTKHoliday

40% off at Banana Republic until 12/15!
60% off J.Crew sale with code EXTRA

🤍 Banana Republic Stretch-Sequin Midi Skirt, size small (size down if between sizes; more of a champagne color IRL than the antique gold you see online)

1. Club Monaco Helek Silk Shirt, Blanc De Blanc/Casse, size small

2. Italic Billie Chunky Oversized Cashmere Cardigan, pebble grey, size small (worn tucked into an elastic belt)

I recommend wearing shapewear shorts so you can tuck the shirts into it and still have a smooth look. I’m wearing a random pair from TJMaxx - probably not close to the most effective option, but it works well enough.

I’m wearing a stretchy belt under my bra, and I tucked the Italic cardigan into it for a cropped look.

Massimo Dutti shoes are 1. great and 2. sized so that US8 is actually European 39. I wear size 38.5, and my order of size 8 fits well. I had to return the 9s - too big. Weird, right?

My size: 5’7”, usually 26 jeans, 0-4 in US sizes. Shoes: 38.5.

My party separates have stayed fresh through a lot of trend cycles - they’re the real basics. But that doesn’t mean you have to spend on museum-quality pieces. They just have to be good at what they do. A little bit undone, a little bit easy - that’s what I’m looking for anyway.

* Mango Sequin jacket with pockets, size small (oversized fit)
* Banana Republic Stretch-Sequin Midi Skirt, size small (size down if between sizes; more of a champagne color IRL than the antique gold you see online)
* Club Monaco Helek Silk Shirt, Blanc De Blanc/Casse, size small
* Italic Billie Chunky Oversized Cashmere Cardigan, pebble grey, size small (worn tucked into an elastic belt)
* J.Crew High-rise sailor denim trouser in 1996 semi-stretch, Dani Beca wash, size 25
* Valentino Garavani 2001 100mm Loafer Pump Heel, color: Nero & Ivory, size 38.5
* Narrator: Luxe Wool-Blend Off-Shoulder Top, size small

My sizes: 5’7”, usually 26 jeans, 0-4 in US clothes. Shoes: 38.5.

I’ve been reluctant to get a black belt because it feels kinda basic, but the croco texture here adds just enough of an interest. And I love the buckle.

My signature gold necklace from J.Crew is now on back order, so I had to find alternatives. I narrowed it down to a few pieces at Etsy - bonus, I found silver, too.

The Hermès necklace is 10mm wide fyi.

The Etsy gold necklace comes in bracelet lengths, too.

I love getting what I love for less, I mean who doesn’t? The sailor jeans + sparkly lady jacket formula feels so right: it’s easygoing, it’s festive, and it’s pieces you can wear in many different ways.

I’m wearing:
J.Crew High-rise sailor denim trouser in 1996 semi-stretch, Dani Beca wash, size 25
Mango sequin jacket with pockets, size small (but I’ve seen the J.Crew mariner jacket with sequins and prefer its neatness)
Valentino Garavani 2001 100mm Loafer Pump Heel, color: Nero & Ivory, size 38.5

My size: 5’7”, usually 26 jeans, 0-4 in US sizes. Size 38.5 shoes.

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
