The Google Sheet Dressing Formula I Built (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A few weeks ago, I had a styling appointment with a client who quite literally got rid of ALL of her clothes. She was in the middle of a personal life change and kept only two pairs of jeans and a few graphic tees (honestly, a great outfit on its own). She explained that her goal is to make getting dressed easy and to feel confident in whatever she puts on. After spending an hour getting to know her (after already reviewing the questionnaire I send before each session) and really dissecting what
The Fall(ish) Dressing List (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The hardest part of early fall dressing is that, as with every other “holiday,” we are marketed the start of the season long before it actually arrives. September 1st/Labor Day/the start of the new school year does not call for heavy sweaters and layers. I think I’m a pretty experienced authority on the matter, having worn a wool sweater on the first day of fourth grade in 91-degree weather:<a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!9Wpq!,f_auto,q_
August Is Closet Cleanout O’Clock! (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I’ve written about this before (ed note: this time, every year), but August is the perfect time for a closet cleanout. I think it feels more like the start of a new year than January. Maybe it’s residual back-to-school energy that seems to last well past grade school. Or the first morning below 70 degrees that makes me remember I do like jeans, but this is when I naturally start thinking about what I want to do differently. And, of course, as a personal stylist and closet obsessor, most of my re
Your Favorite Pieces ≠ Your Most-Worn (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We tend to define our personal style aspirationally, when the evidence of what we actually like is in our laundry baskets.Our most-worn items tell us things our “favorites” don’t: what proportions we instinctively feel good in, which colors we gravitate toward, our favorite silhouettes, and what shoes we feel most ourselves in (walk a mile in them, etc.). It’s what I’ve referred to as your Back Pocket Wardrobe. The glue that holds your outfits together.<
In Defense of the "Just OK" Outfit (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Something that has helped me, as a person who loves to get dressed, who is very particular about what she wears, and who dresses other people for a living, is remembering that not every outfit needs to be the best outfit ever. And what I mean by that is, the second you stop trying to anticipate how many "likes" (a euphemism for approval, whether that's social media engagement, your mom, your date, what have you) your outfit is going to get, the sooner you can start focusing on what actually make
