I have this weird habit of editorializing my personal style–it comes with the job, I guess. Though I don’t go quite as far as wearing the same thing every day like this art director (which actually seems like a good idea), I like creating a look each season because it makes it easier for me to shop and edit my wardrobe. The benefits are small but meaningful: In addition to saving time getting dressed every day, I save money by trimming down my shopping list!
On one of my first trips to Camargo Trading Company, nosiness/curiosity led me on a dizzying exploration of wedding registry plates, plaid picture frames, and other tchotchkes and gifts for the ladies-who-lunch-in-yoga-pants set.

It’s that time of the year and I’ve got warm weather on the brain! For Spring, I’m obsessed with tropical prints: lush greens and blues with bright coral and tangerine accents, all tempered by contrast-y black and white. Yes, I’m fully aware that orange makes me look like a corpse but I don’t care! I have a whole Elvis-in-Hawaii-meets-downtown-it-girl thing in mind and I’m determined to make it happen.

With fashion month under our collective designer belts and Winter a not-so-distant memory (hallelu!), it might seem weird to talk about Fall when everyone is so desperate for Spring. Real talk, though: It’s not exactly hot outside. In fact, this transition period is one of the few times of year when we can mix winter and summer gear and not look completely crazy. Wanna wear a tank top with a faux fur chubby and boots? Go ahead, work it! Plus, this is the best time to take advantage of cold-weather gear on clearance.
