The Moody Staples

Annnndd I’m back! If you haven’t noticed, I’ve taken a bit of a break (you can read all about why here). After some reflection, I don’t think it was a coincidence that I chose to take this mental health break during a particularly rough winter (well…rough for LA). It seems like it’s been raining for 3 months straight, and everyone seems to be looking forward to the longer days and sunshine that Spring will bring. Considering this long bout of dreary, damp weather, it’s no wonder why I spent most of the winter wearing a rotation of moody staples. Black ultra-skinny jeans and taupe pointed toe booties from Everlane are two of my favorite pieces this season, while this Theory tuxedo blazer has been a chic, sleek companion during these chilly months. I firmly believe that everyone needs a few cool, moody pieces that will make them feel like a badass, even when they’re having a rough day.

The Chunky Sweater Upgrade

When it comes to LA's winter weather, we all know that super chunky sweaters are hardly necessities, but instead serve as convenient replacements for coats on most not-cold-enough winter days. Truthfully, I haven't been able to get enough of the style ever since I bought my first Vince waffle knit-- add a turtleneck and a side split and I'm all in. It can get a bit monotonous, though, to always wear a chunky sweater + skinny jeans + heeled booties (aka the LA girl's winter uniform), so I decided to mix it up a bit. I paired my go-to white knit with these ruffled hem trousers, adding a bit more flare (*puns!*) to the look. And you can't really get anymore jazzy than these sparkly lace-up pink mules, right?
