Black for spring? Can that be a thing? I hope so. It's easily the color I gravitate toward the most -- and even when I find a piece I love -- I mean LOVE -- in a bright, punchy hue, I always wonder: would I wear this even more in black? And sometimes: should I grab another in black...just...
Oh hi, from the always rainy Pacific Northwest. Ugh. Raincoats. They are a way of life here but not always that exciting, I'll be honest. When you have to have one for the majority of the year, let's just say...y'all. I'm tired of trying to do new raincoat roundups every year, only to find the same kinds of jackets....
I don't do slip dresses. Y'all know my feelings on fancy bras and bra straps (don't love 'em). But, I will do dresses with open cardigans or sweaters thrown on top. Every now and then I like to try something outside my comfort zone. (You never know when you're going to discover the next Stupid Pants.)
Everlane's Japanese GoWeave Slip...
Jumpsuits are a struggle. When I try one on, I feel like I'm either having a gynecological exam or the crotch is hanging down to my knees. I've worked my way through many a failed jumpsuit try-on and honestly put off giving this Everlane's Japanese GoWeave Essential Jumpsuit a spin for quite some time.
Why? I don't know because the...
I finally had a chance to try a few new Everlane pieces I've had my eye on for a while — including some clothes for Mike. As you likely already know, Everlane does everyday wardrobe basics really well (they're some of our team's most-worn pieces), and their menswear stuff is no exception. We both fell in love with Everlane's...
If we had to pick a favorite retailer for solid, affordable basics...Everlane ranks high. We especially love the selection of products that are Earth-friendlier, too. And while we appreciate Everlane's prices before sales...we're finding their Goodbye 2020 Event (year-end sale) especially hard-to-resist: seriously versatile boots for under $100, my fav Everlane jeans for just $54, and more solid choices...
It is VERY difficult to limit my most-loved Everlane faves to just 10, you guys. SO many of the most-worn pieces in my closet are from Everlane...this square cashmere turtleneck, my white and tan sneaks, this oversized recycled cashmere sweater, several go-to bags...the list really could go on and on. So, I may have cheated a bit...
As I mentioned in our special Sunday night newsletter (you can subscribe here for sneak peeks)....Everlane recently came out with new washes in their '90s Cheeky Straight Jean, including a lighter, distressed wash that I am v. much into.
Everlane's '90s Cheeky Jean is a high-rise, straight-leg jean with an easy fit, and exudes an nonchalant, almost-sexy vibe. Think...
This little black dress? Perfection.
Seriously, this is one of the most comfortable, flattering, and versatile dresses I've ever worn. It's 100% cotton (machine-washable,) but somehow manages to be soft, stretchy, and thick enough to help smooth everything out. The fit isn't too tight, but it hugs your curves enough to be sexy (perfect for date night).
Because of the soft...
