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.

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.

I’m wearing the Massimo Dutti Trench coat with belt in camel, size small, but a medium would fit me better.

Uniqlo’s size S fits me – it’s a slim fit, too.

I’m wearing the Massimo shoes in size 8 - which is really 39 European. You order an 8, and that’s what they send you. I’m a 38.5, so that’s perfect for me.

I love contrasting the plush texture of corduroy with a sleek leather shoe. The loafers are the classic choice, and it’s such a polished, effortless look. I do love the pointy flat - with a sheer black sock to create a sleek line and add allure.

I’m wearing:

Caramel cords: J.Crew Sailor slim-wide pant in stretch corduroy, color: Rich Coffee, size 25

Sweater: Italic Emma Cashmere Relaxed Turtleneck Sweater, ivory, size S

Loafers: 8 by Yoox Polish Leather Penny Loafer, color: black, size 9

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

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

Getting ready for the holidays with some sparkle from Mango!

I haven’t seen costume jewelry bangles this cute at any price! I love that they combine silver and gold tones.

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.
