get it before it's gone
get it before it's gone

Lately I keep finding myself halfway through a day feeling confident in my outfit...until I don't. This happened most recently, while standing in the epically long line at Cédric Grolet in Paris, the louche Parisienne in front of me with her messy bun, perfect suede jacket (above), and espresso nonchalance made me want to book it back to my hotel, re-dress and start all over. This isn’t exactly envy, more like sartorial osmosis—her vibe seeps into my bloodstream, rewrites my mood board, and suddenly my neat outfit feels…wrong. Is this style transference? Or just chronic indecision masquerading as aesthetic sensitivity? Either way, I left the line convinced I didn’t need another pastry—just more spot-on pieces that will always satiate the first time around. Here's what I've rounded up since I've returned: the instantly-sleekifying Reformation blazer, Jessie Loeffler Randall's pink-collared jacket (same thing always happens when I see her!), these outfit-making embellished Tory Burch slingbacks, an Heirlome-like brooch (thank you, Etsy!), Elle Collection's beaded shirt ($94!), H&M's denim skirt ($40!), and a reversible Zara coat.
