100% Yak Wool Turtleneck Sweater curated on LTK

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.

How can you tell luxury without looking at the price?

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

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

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

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)

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