LE CATCH

Just snapped up this statement-making jumpsuit that not only works day to night, but is customizable: you can shorten the length, close the cut-out on the bodice, add another arm ruffle or make the strap wider. I chose to keep as is, and can't wait to wear it!

Teaming jeans with a button-down is a no brainer, but Leandra Medine, above, makes it look genius! Her styling hack: Elegant, sparkly sandals to add sophistication and an unbuttoned shirt for (unexpected!) sexiness. I'd like to pull off this chic look with any of these shimmery shoes from Isabel Marant, Sophia Webster, Frances Valentine, Badgley Mishka, and Aquazurra.

Timeless staples are always good but timeless staples on sale are even better. At least in my book!

Check it all out here.

The hooded sweatshirt--A.K.A., last year's go-to layering staple--is proving its staying power in Europe right now, where fashion show goers are sporting them underneath blazers and trenches. I'm planning to stay comfy and cozy too with this cheap and chic hoodie from H&M. I also like these versions from J.Crew, Vince and Isabel Marant.

A workday staple steeped in elegance is a rare find, which is why I'm obsessed with Manolo Blahnik's walk-everywhere, work-friendly, go-with-everything mules. Giorgia Tordini, above, pulls them off with aplomb in Paris.

Paris's fashion show front rowers are sporting a similar uniform, and, thankfully, it's a look I can wear any old day back in La La land. All I need: a good pair of straight-leg cropped jeans like these, these, and these; a fitted white t-shirt (such as this, this and this) and a boyfriend blazer (extra points if it has a check print). I like these toppers by Blaze Milano (immediately below), Maje, H&M, James Jeans, and Simon Miller. C'est bon!
