I used to get too excited about wearing fall clothes and would end up sweating to death in September. I finally learned my lesson and now I try to plan better transitional outfits for warmer weather. I’ve partnered with Net-a-Porter to help you figure out what to wear early in the season with their new […]
Style vs. Fashion There seems to be something afoot in the fashion world. One of my most fashionable friends sent me a message recently lamenting that “every (fashion) influencer has the same voice and cadence today” and was annoyed when they post the same items on the same day. “Nothing is organic or cool! Literally […]
As you know, I’m beyond excited for fall but I know that most fashions are too heavy to be worn right away. So I’m partnered with MATCHES to show you how to style a leather skirt from September to November so you can take it from crisp to cold weather. The best part is that […]
If you follow me on Instagram, you may have already seen some of these pieces but I thought it might be nice to put a post together of how I will wear them this fall. Since I plan to wear these pieces with things already in my closet, I tried to find similar items so […]
I realized that just telling you to add a pop of red to your outfits isn’t helpful without showing you how. I’ve put together five outfits from dressy to casual to give you an idea of how you can incorporate this bold hue into your wardrobe for late summer into fall. I loved the yellow […]
The reason I get so excited about fall is because it’s New York’s best season. It can still be quite hot into October though so I’ve put together an array of pieces that can be mixed and matched when it’s still warm and then can easily transition to cooler temperatures. If you aren’t into skirts, […]
The Dries Van Noten store on Quai Malaquais is one of my favorite places in Paris. I always tell people to go inside to look around even if they can’t afford anything since the flowers, fashion, and interior design is infinitely inspiring. Down the way at 9 Quai Malaquais is the equally impressive men’s store […]
There comes a point each summer when I want to burn my summer clothes. I have not reached that point yet but I am ready to start thinking about fall fashions and planning out my wardrobe. I’ve already started buying some things too so I thought I’d put together a first look post. I’m sure […]
It’s time for our annual Humidity Proof Hair post and the beginning of Leo season couldn’t be a better time, since Leos like Jennifer Lopez are known for their flowing locks. I actually started this post last week but I had some personal things to clear off my plate first. This post might actually be […]
This is always a quiet time for shopping as I anxiously await fall fashions to arrive in stores and online. The things I’m eyeing, buying, and trying right now need to be able to transition to September and October when it can still be quite hot. It’s now that I start choosing pieces that are […]
I started this Nordstrom Anniversary Sale post before I left London and spent every day this week trying to finish it to no avail. As much as I love traveling, it really throws me off my game so I’m happy to be home so I can get back on track. But because I’ve posted so […]
We had some great looks on actress Jennifer Lawrence this week while she filmed a commercial on the streets on New York. Model Kendall Jenner returned from Paris, where she looked very ladylike, and also wore two great navy looks around NYC. The more I looked at the images together, I realized you could mix […]
Summer officially started last week and it’s time to plan our travel wardrobe. My friend Heidi Wynne has a beautiful summer collection and is offering Habitually Chic readers 20% off, site-wide on heidiwynne.com, until Sunday July 23, 2023 at midnight PST. Her new wicker and raffia bags and block print floral dresses are ready for […]
If you one of the few people not on holiday like everyone else on Instagram right now, I have some suggestions for things to do and see this month. Deux Moi has pretty much ruined restaurants in New York so make a reservation at Sartiano’s before she posts about it on Instagram. The new restaurant […]
I didn’t create a Father’s Day Gift Guide last year so I’m making up for it this year with 54 gifts to get the man in your life. The Wager: A Tale of Shipwreck, Mutiny and Murder is the hot book of the summer and looks like the perfect subject matter for dad. I remember […]
I love the magazine How to Spend It, although, they just had an unfortunate rebrand to just HTSI. I’m sure this acronym means nothing people who are not familiar with the magazine included in the weekend edition of the Financial Times. They have a regular interview feature that was also called How to Spend It […]
Since Memorial Day is the unofficial start of summer, I decided to put together some summer essentials to get you ready for the season. They can also give you a few ideas for Father’s Day and the Fourth of July too. If you need a little cover from the sun, this linen-cotton blend beach shirt […]
