Here's What You Bought and Loved During the Shop's First Week
It's hard to over-state how exciting the re-launch of the Shop was last week. After months of planning, it feels a little like our team's baby, made all the more special by the countless orders that came streaming in, followed a few days later by DMs from readers in their new ...read more
Our Top 9 Picks From The Shop Relaunch (And Why We Think You’ll Want Them Too)
Okay, so we may be a bit biased... but we love our Shop. And despite the fact that we each have distinctly different styles that run the gamut from tomboy to unapologetically feminine, we all regularly arrive to the office wearing items from the Shop (working at cupcakes and ...read more
With This Blouse, It's All About the Details
Like any large city, LA is constantly evolving. In the time since our office was located downtown just over a year ago, many of the stalls have changed at the food hall we used to frequent, which we re-discovered during a recent team lunch. What doesn't change in L.A. is the fact ...read more
Silk Standard (With a Twist)
There's something so nostalgic about visiting an old diner. I recently visited one of my favorite older diners in Los Angeles, which still has menus painted on the walls from the 1940s (when a beer was 20 cents). I ordered a vanilla milkshake, naturally, while we snapped photos ...read more
The New Power Suit
I've been ready to embrace the whole suit look for a while, but have yet to make the commitment. Part of me wants to go for a fun color—an olive green, cherry red, or periwinkle blue, but I question if I'll tire of the bright shade too fast. So for the time being, I'm revisiting ...read more
Meet the Owners Behind Some of Our Favorite Boutiques
Reading this blog—or any blog—you might think that when it comes to shopping, online is the only way to go. But that couldn't be further from the truth. Offline, there's an incredible team of small business owners with beautifully curated stores featuring cupcakes and cashmere ...read more

You Probably Already Have This Fall Look in Your Closet
Jeans and a sweater is a far from revolutionary combination (and one that can sway dangerously close to Mom Jeans), but with a few swaps, it can also become a pulled-together, casual look for fall. When I wore this to the office and a day of meetings last week, I started with a ...read more
The Best Accessory For a Neutral Outfit
Since I'm such an avid fan of cats, I think people sometimes assume that I'm not much of a dog person. It couldn't be further from the truth though, which is why I'm thrilled to get to spend so much time with our office dog, Alexa, every day of the work week. She belongs to our ...read more
A Sneak Peek at Our First Ever (!) Pop Up Sale in L.A. Coming This Month
I'm thrilled to announce that we're hosting our first ever (!) pop-up shop at the end of this month. As we gear up for our fall relaunch (which is coming very soon), we're cleaning out our warehouse and selling some of my favorite pieces from this spring and summer, as well as ...read more
The Fall Trend I Can't Stop Wearing
I mentioned my newfound obsession with prints a while back, and it's shown no signs of letting up. In fact, my approach has become even a little more laid-back, taking on a bit of a western spin with flat booties in lieu of pointy-toe kitten heels. Instead of it leaning more ...read more
Why I Almost Didn't Wear This Sequin Skirt
Last weekend, I waited until the last possible minute to decide what I was going to wear to the Veuve Clicquot polo match, and the three things I was considering just did not work. One of those items was actually this gold sequined skirt, which I love, but it would have been a ...read more
The One Dress for Fall That Looks Good on So Many Readers
Without fail, there's always at least one piece per collection that takes off —more-so than any other style. And while there have been several best-sellers so far this season, it's the Mallory Dress that's gotten the most love across social media. The '70s-style dress, with its ...read more
Let's Talk About Bras
The other day in the office, our editorial team lunchtime discussion veered to bras—our favorite styles, how often we purchase them, and why it's so hard to find a perfect strapless option (a conversation that isn't entirely rare in a mostly all-women office, sorry G). After ...read more
The Outerwear I Plan to Wear Everywhere This Fall
We don't experience 'fall' in L.A. the same way other parts of the country do. Palm trees don't turn to brilliant shades of orange and gold, but the marine layer of clouds may stick around for a few hours longer, and the nights get noticeably chiller (even if our definition of ...read more
What I Wore to a New French Marketplace
About two years ago, we found out that a little French cafe/marketplace/bar/restaurant was set to open up in our neighborhood. I probably walked by and creepily drove past it dozens of times, waiting to see if its doors were finally open. So when we heard last week that they'd ...read more
The Next Best Thing to a Colorful, Crisp Suit
I've been scouring the internet for a colorful suit—something crisp and tailored, but in a playful shade like lilac or mint green (inspired by some NYFW looks). In the meantime though, I found something even better: a navy set that feels both professional and absurdly comfortable ...read more
How to Accessorize a Floral Dress (It's Both the Easiest and Trickiest Thing)
Here's the thing about floral dresses: They're both some of the easiest things to throw on because the print itself is an accessory, but also some of the most difficult things to dress up. The line between elevated and over-the-top is especially thin with any strong print, and ...read more
The NYFW Trends I'll Actually Be Wearing
I haven't been to New York Fashion Week for years, but I've always loved looking at photos of the shows after the fact, and staying aware of the trends is more important than ever since we're already selecting spring pieces for the Shop (we're counting down to the fall ...read more
Shifting into Fall
There's something about this moment between seasons that I love. Even though I can't pull out my chunkiest knits and cozy layers just yet, it's an ideal time to wear autumn-inspired colors. This SENREVE Mini Maestra bag is one of my favorite pieces for fall—the rich chestnut ...read more
The Real Reason I Don't Wear the Most Flattering Dress I Own
I've had this dress for over a year and it's easily one of my favorite items in my closet. The dusty mauve color is unexpected, the wrap is supremely flattering, and the little ruffles are sweet without being saccharine. It's basically perfect... except for one small, ...read more
The One Skirt I Wore Till it Fell Apart
I used to have a black leather mini skirt from Zara that I wore constantly (as evidenced here, here, here, and here). I loved that it was made from real leather, but unfortunately the price (it was under $75) was reflected in the quality because it basically disintegrated off of ...read more
The Leopard Skirt I Didn't Know I Needed (Until This Summer)
It's no exaggeration to say Los Angeles (and Denmark, as Leslie wrote about Tuesday) have been taken over by leopard skirts, with one (eternally sold out) version dominating my feed. The animal print adds a slight edge to the conservative length and classic material, so that it ...read more
