Here is me in it with my favorite comfy outfit on (I love these Seavee clogs I’ve talked about before). I reallly love the sweater. It hangs perfectly and has a vintage quality to it.

It’s the oversized cotton v-neck sweater and it’s based on a vintage sweater they found in their archives. Very well made and love that it’s cotton as we move into Spring/Summer. It’s now beloved in my closet.

Banana Republic is actually sooooooo good lately- I highly suggest popping in one in your area. They have upped their prices but the quality is great- two coats I stole from my Mom are from there and I always get compliments on them. Like these jeans (they have a long pair with a 33 inch insean).

A good simple belt to pair it with from Nakd. Love this.

This outfit on Matilda Djerf. As reported here, I am very into blue right now. I just got this sweater from the Shopbop sale which came and it is actually an excellent sweater. Yet, I am still searching for the below specific blue.

This 360 cashmere sweater via Poshmark is pretty close to the above.

I did get these blue panties (also via the Shopbop sale). Thrilling.

An incredible Etro blazer via The RealReal.

Ahh these Toteme heels, size 10!

Fun vintage Robert Cavalli jeans size large. Love these.

Someone out there buy this stunning vintage Miu Miu jacket.

Pair it with this Burberry patent leather bag for $220.

You could recreate this look via Emma Jarman with this bag from The RealReal.

White on white with this belt by Calvin Klein (via RealReal) for $24.50 (size small)!

Ugh this vintage Dolce & Gabbana skirt.

I’ve been on the search for this bag.

Hair: I went through a stage where I wanted to chop my hair, and get the ever so chic and trendy bob, but then I saw Angelina Jolie on Jimmy Fallon and now I am not cutting my hair!!

Megan Strachan posted this stuff on her story and I was just talking about how perfect the hair was at the Chloe show. I must try this!

Hai has headbands now! They are so cute.

I love this scalp gua sha. I am a scalp massage enthusiast.

Home: If you’ve followed this Substack for a while, you know I mention the lighting of the homes I saw in Amsterdam a lot. I am constantly on a search for the perfect light bulbs and Annie Meyers-Shyer of This Oak House recommended these ones and per a few reviews- they sound wonderful, dimmable and warm.

Pamela Anderson’s garden. Dreamy.

I’ve been studying up on Japanese tea ceremonies and they are so beautiful. I love waking up in the morning to make my matcha and at night, having my mint or ginger tea. It really does feel intentional and cozy. I love this Japanese teapot from Etsy.

This matcha bowl is perfect via Etsy.

This Issey Miyake table book is amazing.

Art: I love the cover of the Spring issue of The Paris Review by Anna Weyant.

This vintage Japanese water color on silk via Etsy.

Love this piece in this France home. Again with the blue!

Watching: I watched Paris is Burning (free on HBO right now) and absolutely loved it. It’s such a beautiful and important film. We owe so much to the queer community of the 60’s-90’s. Beautiful dreamers- should be a mandatory film (specifically for the wretched white old men in office).

This looks cute!!

Listening: Leon Bridges made a country playlist. I love when artist make playlist and always find a couple songs that I like. And I am not a country fan.

Here is my Spring playlist, it’s real good.
