LE CATCH

Although I have never been one to laze around in my pajamas all day, that could potentially change, thanks to all the compellingly cute PJ's I've seen lately, including Heidi Merrick's silk print jammies, above (which you can even monogram!). Other amazing lounge-worthy options to consider (and perhaps gift): this soft washed silk Equipment, this luxurious polka dot Oscar de la Renta, this piped J.Crew (30% off!), this flannel gingham Three J NYC, this striped Vineyard Vines, and this zebra print BedHead (on sale!).

I'd like to ring in the New Year with this kind of (Delfina Delettrez-inspired) bling!

I spotted Gwyneth Paltrow the other night at a friend's holiday trunk show wearing the cutest, chicest pajama-inspired pants. They were black, cropped, and perfectly louche--and most suitable for the occasion as the vibe was relaxed and intimate. These pants, I discovered, are by Gucci. Of course! And they go with a matching silk-trimmed blazer, creating what could be the coolest suit (pictured above) I've seen in a while. While I'd love to splurge on the whole shebang, I'm thinking something derivative will do, like this pajama-inspired blouse that will make me feel both cool and comfy.

For me, the fringe detailing transforms this turtleneck into chic apres-ski-in-Aspen material.

The holidays typically get tricked out in garland, red bows, and twinkling lights. For me, it's all about lace! It's such a feminine and elegant fabric--even a little bit of it can elevate an outfit. Take for instance, the Self-Portrait blouse, above, a sugarplum vision dancing in my head. I also love these pretty lace-trimmed, holiday-ready pieces by Zimmermann, Endless Rose, Stella McCartney (on sale!) and Club Monaco. For more inspo, check out how I styled a lace-trimmed Draper James blouse (below) in three holiday-ready ways here.

What I'll be wearing with with my cropped (uneven-hemmed) jeans this winter: one of these suede sock booties from Topshop. They hit/hug the lower shin, which lengthens and slims the leg (always good); work equally well with skirts, dresses and jeans; and ring in at just $150. The only question is which color: black, brown or blue? They're all so good!

In the ever-changing land of denim, we see hemlines go up and down in the blink of the eye. But at this very moment they're going both ways! Picture: shorter in the front and longer in the back. Of course, this uneven hem is inspired by the highly sought-after (and prohibitively pricey) Vetements jeans. One can easily pull this off DIY, or just look into spot-on ready-cut alternatives, like this pair by Joe's Jeans and SJYP.

In case you're still hung up on those excellent Alaia suede studded sandals (above) from several seasons ago, you can find solace in this (much less expensive!) version from Raye. Love!
