When Everlane released its Day Heel back in April, it was so popular that it sold out in a day, generating a long wait list. People rave about it, and as I am always searching for a comfortable, chic shoe, I tried them on recently.
Seven years ago, a friend gifted a set of mesh produce bags to me and I still use them.
Recently on a Target run, I was distracted by a faux fur leopard print coat.
Today’s post is a review about a coat, but also about conflicted feelings. One place that I’ve enjoyed shopping is Club Monaco. I like their minimalist aesthetic (though they definitely get into frilly, feminine moods too.) Club Monaco feels a bit less fast fashion and trendy than other brands — at least that’s my perception of them — and I like that.
Everlane came out with a new cashmere sweater this season (at least I think it’s new) and I love the idea of it. Hello Waffle Knit Cashmere Square Crew! I love waffle knit; it’s such a great texture. I had to go try it on.
One thing that I love about Everlane is how they take an everyday basic and give it a modern cut. That’s the case with their Cashmere Crop V-Neck. They’ve played with the proportions of a V-neck sweater, shortening the length and widening the V-neck. As a petite, I’m always looking for items of clothing that make me seem a little taller and a cropped sweater seemed like it would do the trick.
I’ve been looking for a lampshade ever since the plastic shade on an old Target floor lamp of mine cracked. At Ikea recently, I was absolutely giddy upon seeing these beautiful shades.
If you’re in the mood for shopping and looking for ethically-made, (hopefully) long lasting items, here are some brands I like (or have been curious about) having Cyber Monday and holiday sales.
If you’ve been following my blog, then you know I haven’t had much success with Everlane shoes because they run too narrow for my wide-ish feet. So, I was thrilled to hear about the new Editor Heel, which Everlane says runs on the big side. I just happen to be in the market for a smart pointy toe kitten heel.
