A Note on Style

This Month…September

This Month…September

September always feels like a new beginning. Even more so than January for me. It has always been time to shift gears for the new season, although we have minimal change in California. In my mind, I put summer behind me and make plans for the fall. I do a thorough cleanse of my closet and look for voids to add new pieces that will update my wardrobe or replace essentials that look tired.

Right now, my thoughts are on cleaning up a bit…not just my closet, but my look. I’ll still wear denim all the time, because that fits my lifestyle, but I’m going to make the effort to mix it up and add some polish. Maybe it stems from dressing casual all summer, but every September I dream about getting dressed in new fall pieces…often way too warm to ever wear here. With that in mind, I’m enjoying a range of fall picks in a palette of black and white, in fluid fabrics that feel perfect for California. There’s nothing too heavy here and all can be paired back with denim, which of course I will do.

Sandals for fall? Why not, as long as they have some weight. Black is an obviuos preference. Flowing pants are a must for fall and I have my eye on Theory’s relaxed, track style. They’re perfect puddled over flat sandals, sneakers or chunky heeled loafers. Although it won’t work for everyone, layering various proportions, especially tunics or longer length dresses over pants is at the moment, the most modern way to look very chic. A slouchy bag, in suede, buttery leather or velvet compliments this style nicely. An unstructured bomber, preferably in leather, adds another layer of softness and is on the top of my fall wish list. As a matter of fact, every piece here is on my list and as the season progresses, I’ll add my other favorite colors, beige, navy and grey to add warmth and depth.

My weekend plans involve a lot of relaxing. I’m My weekend plans involve a lot of relaxing. I’m still playing catch up from my trip so the idea of poking around the house is very appealing. I want to tidy things up for the season now that we’re already in July. Fresh table linens, raffia accents, and new candles will be brought into rotation.

I’m sure you’ve seen the images this week of Nancy Meyers’s @markdsikes_interiors designed home as published in Architectural Digest. I can’t wait to curl up on a lounge chair and read the full story. Every photo I’ve seen so far is simply stunning. Such talent.

I’ve obsessed about this Tory Burch printed tablecloth (scroll forward) since I saw it in the New York store last September. It’s time to bring it home. It’s beautiful and will pair nicely with pinks, blues and greens now or warmer tones in the fall. A raffia placemat will add texture and interest peaking out from under a charger or plate. For a complete splurge, I’d select hand painted plates from the Picardie collection created by Zoe de Givenchy for @zdgofficial So lovely.
.
Meanwhile, part of my lounging around means wearing relaxed clothes. My favorite pull on shorts from @cosstores have been getting lots of play. Same with a poplin shirt I’ll tie at the waist or layer over a tank.
.
Two other favorite pieces I’ve been wearing a lot lately are a pair of @fendi silver slides and a @sophiebuhai black knotted pearl necklace. I’ll layer it with other pearls, chains, diamonds or enjoy it simply on its own. Both pieces involve minimal effort in producing a splash of style.
.
The @frenchgirlorganics Rose Lip Polish has been a staple in my beauty cabinet for a long time. My latest discovery is to use it on my cuticles. Seriously the best thing ever. I’m stocking up! This is a must try and savior for anyone with dry cuticles.
.
Enjoy the long weekend and have a happy Fourth!
My wardrobe is fairly consistent with classic piec My wardrobe is fairly consistent with classic pieces so I’ll add fresh, seasonal accessories to bring a little flair to my looks. In collaboration with #Mytheresa I handpicked items that would boost my summer outfits while still staying true to my style. Think raffia bags, bucket hats and flat sandals – summer staples with a twist.

Warm summer days mean baring a bit more skin wearing sleeveless tops, shorter hems, and beachwear. I have an arsenal of products I use to prep for the extra exposure. From self tanning products and bronzers to a strong sunscreen, I’ve got my favorites.

The flowers at the George V hotel in Paris are not The flowers at the George V hotel in Paris are notorious for their abundance and style. Working with an annual budget of over one million dollars, Jeff Leatham designs new arrangements every three works with stems refreshed daily. That's roughly 15,000 stems a week. This beautiful little vignette was captured right outside the entrance to the dining room. #jeffleatham #georgeV #fourseasons #florals #paris #FSGeorgeVparis #Summer #Flowers #floralarrangement
