Seriously wanting to close out this winter is this eye-popping maximalist sweater!

1. And Other Stories lace striped sweater,
2. Stella McCartney trench coat,
3. Loewe clutch,
4. Shashi chain link ring,
5. Acne Studios booties,
6. Frame jeans,

Zara nails this spring's must have, the basket bag, with a detachable cross-body leather strap and chain link handle. Love!

This winter reality check, I love, with its gorgeous embroidery embellishment and vintage-y, one-of-a-kind vibe. (P.S. It's faux fur!)

I'd give up all the shorts in my wardrobe to wear this cute skirt all spring/summer long!

For my trip to Europe last summer I stuffed a weeks' worth of clothes, shoes and bags into a carry-on suitcase only to have it split--true story--in Split, Croatia. My packed-to-the-gills suitcase literally burst open as I was going through airport security. A customs officer kindly helped me tape it together while I sat on top of it. The scene was both hilarious and harrowing! So, I've been in the market for a replacement and just found this incredibly chic leather-trimmed (and well-priced) that I had monogrammed. Win!

One exuberantly feminine statement I'll be making this spring.

An unexpected pretty lace panel distinguishes this spring staple.

I can't wait to bust out this sharp shirt dress come spring!

I've got my eye on some new investment bags for spring, ones that will work and play hard, punctuate/update my lightweight wardrobe, and lug my life around in style. My favorites include this rope-handled bucket bag (above), this chain-strapped (below), this crochet raffia tote, this minimalist bucket bag and this striped satchel. Less of an investment and more of an impulse buy, this basket tote is not everyday life practical, but is patently cute!

Light, ethereal and endlessly versatile: my kind of statement earrings!
