Every now and then, I go off track into the land o

Every now and then, I go off track into the land of prints, but my day-in-day-out preference is based on solid basics. I’ve spent years building a closet full of these staples with zero regrets. One mini obsession is a black blazer and I’ve collected more than a few. For summer, I love the three-quarter sleeve, slightly shrunken version perfectly created by The Row. I wear it with everything – jeans, skirts, shorts or dresses. A little black blazer is the easiest piece to add instant polish to even the most casual look. And yes, I wear it all summer long.
.
Shopping for pieces designed to be around for years to come takes restraint. Recognizing the weight of their importance to a thoughtfully created wardrobe allows the editing process to move along with ease. I’ve found a number of my favorite timeless pieces at MyTheresa. Of course, their inventory also includes the best pieces of the moment, but I turn to MyTheresa as my go-to source for solid investment pieces. With tax and duty included in their prices, I feel like I’m often getting the best pricing available on luxury items. Plus, their prompt two-day shipping and amazing customer service have made me a repeat customer.
.
The Row schoolboy blazer is a perfect example. It’s an essential part of their collection season after season and I can’t recall ever seeing it go on sale. I’m pairing it in this post with other timeless pieces I think are important to have in a well-stocked classic closet. Use it as the anchor for a travel wardrobe, or as the last piece you’ll grab before heading out the door.

Items on repeat in a color story I’ll never be bored with...jeans, sweaters (for cool mornings and evenings), a tan bag, loafers or sandals, classic sunglasses and gold jewelry. .

With all of my travel plans canceled for the rest

With all of my travel plans canceled for the rest of the year, I’m feeling antsy and would love a quick getaway. Right now, a road trip sounds amazing. The 10 day southwest itinerary from a few years back would be fantastic to see again in the fall from the perspective of a different season. At last check, hotels (except The View) are reopened for guests.

Today’s blog post has the full itinerary through the scenic American southwest. Such a beautiful part of our country. ⬆️

Long time readers know about my love for loafers.

Long time readers know about my love for loafers. I’ve posted on them more than a few times. So when I spotted these from the @Loewe #SS20 collection, I fell hard. They weren’t widely available or easy to track down, but finding them at @MyTheresa.com came as no surprise. The buying team at #MyTheresa step a bit outside the box to bring in special pieces you don’t see everywhere. It’s just one of the many reasons I frequently shop there. .
These Loewe loafers fall into that "special pieces" category. They’re my first pair of shoes from Loewe and I’m thrilled with the quality and immediate comfort. A heeled white loafer has been on my wishlist for a while but I couldn’t find a unique style with timeless appeal. These certainly meet those criteria.
.
Today's blog post has all the links to shop the loafers and other great items at MyTheresa or you can instantly shop this look by following A NOTE ON STYLE on the LIKEtoKNOW.it shopping app .

Summer snuck up on me this year. It’s hard to be

Summer snuck up on me this year. It’s hard to believe it’s already mid-June. I’ve been meaning to freshen up our outdoor living area but the big projects, like new cushions and refurbishing the teak, fell to the wayside. That will get done in time, but meanwhile, I’ve decided to spruce up immediately by bringing in a few new pieces for an instant update. A couple of oversized pillows, textured blankets, beautiful candlelight, and stylish essentials for entertaining will do the trick.
.
Shopping for items on my summer checklist began and ended at @serenaandlily 🌿🌿🌿
It was pretty simple. Their selection is well-edited to reflect the casual, coastal style that I like. With a couple of new blankets, pillows, and a few statement accessories, the space feels updated and fresh, yet timeless. Anchored in classic design, the new pieces I brought in quietly complement older ones as if they’ve been collected over time.
.
All of the details and links to items are in today’s blog post🌿

The sales have officially begun with loads of merchandise discounted to make room for new inventory. I’m not paying attention to the season and shopping for pieces I’d wear throughout the year according to weather. Buying boots or jackets in June? Why not? Loafers and jeans? They’re all keepers I’ll be glad to have in my closet when the time comes to wear them. .

Between Birks, Marni Fussbett and Chanel “dad”

Between Birks, Marni Fussbett and Chanel “dad” sandals, I’ve got a small collection of heavy-soled sandals. I love the way they anchor an outfit and add edge to classic pieces. Case in point with The Row’s fisherman-inspired sandal paired with a relaxed suit (scroll right). They act as the game changer detail injecting a modern note to an otherwise simple look.

Lately, one of my favorite stories on Vogue has be

Lately, one of my favorite stories on Vogue has been a series called Past/Present. Editors select articles, images, or photoshoots from the past and share why they carry personal significance or meaning. The story on Elsa Peretti photographed in her New York apartment in 1976 is especially chic. A less-is-more design aesthetic is reflected across the board with her personal style, home decor, and her iconic jewelry line for Tiffany & Co. All in all, Peretti epitomizes timeless style in my book. @voguemagazine @elsaperettiofficial #timeless

Warm days and evenings, open beaches, and dining al fresco all cue to the summer mood in the air. More than ever, I'm excited to welcome a seasonal change and bring out the summer staples. Hello to the warm tones of wicker, pretty florals, and fresh fragrances to bring the outdoors in.
.
One of my current favorite scents is from eau d'italie. With my wanderlust in high gear, it's just what I need to mentally transport me to @LeSirenuse on the Italian coast. .
