Necessary

If I could only take a handful of items to a deserted island, I’ll be honest, it would be a challenge picking favorites.  However, rationally speaking, my most versatile, high rotation pieces always seem to be vintage cut offs, a leather jacket, a good tee and timeless pouch.  These seemingly basic pieces can be worn so many different ways and never go out of style.

The pouch perfectly morphs from a daytime brunch to rooftop drinks.  Add a blazer and heels to my denim and I’m ready for dinner in the Meatpacking. Last, a well fitted leather jacket in black is a fashion staple every girl should own.  The motto detail on this IRO jacket (no one does them better than IRO) gave just the right amount of edge.

Rips & Wraps

I love starting off the week with a fresh new scarf and as you can probably guess, Theodora & Callum was my accessory of choice.  I scored this piece on sale and am totally obsessed with the intense color and pattern.  With trips to Sydney and Vegas in August, I plan on bringing my new tie all as my partner in crime.  Cold plane-check, poolside vibes-check, most versatile piece in my carry on-check!

Sunday Stripes

Ever since our trip to Paris, I’ve been obsessed with stripes. Admittedly, I already had a fairly large section dedicated to them in my closet, but I can’t help adding new pieces, as they are a perfect neutral without being boring.  There’s something so classic yet so versatile about stripes.  They can take on an entirely new life paired with leather and ripped jeans vs. a girly skirt and sweet flats. Sunday felt like a stripe kinda day.
