Loving Lately: Plaid, Hair Bows + Riding Boots

Loving Lately: Plaid, Hair Bows + Riding Boots

I hope your 2024 is off to a good start! I’m looking forward to recapping last year’s top favorites soon (these thermals have certainly earned their spot on my list this winter) and wanted to share some recent looks in the meantime.

We had some damp but fortunately mild weather in NYC, so I packed my mid weight jackets and these sleek rubber boots. I’ve always been a Gossip Girl dresser at heart (give me all the bows, pearls and tweed!), but try to tone it down for my age and lifestyle with just elements here and there – like a tailored jacket and velvet hair bow.

Sezane Christie Jacket

The Christie blazer is one of Sezane’s core pieces, available year-round and comes in well over a dozen colors and fabrics. It’s well-made with a full lining, and the herringbone option is a warmer wool blend that also serves me as mild day jacket. Fit wise, the size US 0 / EUR 32 is a relaxed fit on me and hits at the hips, also working well with jeans and loafers or ballet flats. The sleeves hit a little long on me at a borderline spot, not quite long enough for me to alter them for now.

Size US 0 / EUR 32 measures: 14.5″ across the shoulders, 17″ across the bust, 25″ length, 23.5″ sleeve length. The other fabrics might measure a little differently, depending on how thick or thin the material is.

You can find more of my Sezane try-ons here including their trench coat, sweaters & blouses!

This alternate look was inspired by the many Parisian fashionistas that pop up on my social feed. A classic formula I kept seeing on repeat was high rise straight (or wide leg) jeans, slightly cropped to show off square toe booties, and a blazer or cardigan jacket.
