coat check
Monday, October 21
As I try not to catastrophize the fact that it's currently in the high 70s in NYC, Chicago and LA, I'll keep preparing for the inevitable arrival of fall! In fact, we should all be stocking up on a statement coat that will save us from thinking about what to wear underneath it! I like these affordable options from Cos, above, Avec Les Filles, below (under $200!), Sezanne (second pic down), and Rouje (another option here and here).

work week
Friday, October 18
It was a non-stop, blazer-and-ballet-flats kind of week in which I was scheduled to attend Diane Von Furstenburg's exhbit at the Skirball Museum, a fundraiser for Nathan Hochman, a trunk show hosted by The Stax, a photo exhibit and charitable auction at Milk Studios (which included a piece by my sister!), and the A.L.C. store opening in Beverly Hills last night! Meanwhile, what I actually did was work at my desk, over-eat at two new-to-me LA restaurants, All Roads Enoteca (the grilled carciofi is insane), and Muse (the brioche and butter and eggplant pasta are worth the splurge), partake in three birthday cakes, not sleep during a red-eye flight from Hawaii, and participate in a live Q&A Webinar with Cake (look for excerpts in my Instagram Stories soon!). In case you're wondering these new pieces by Doen (below), Maje (last pic), and Moon River (looks like Celine if you squint!!) got me through it all! Happy Friday!!

it's a cinch
Thursday, October 17
These pics are Wazing us straight on to the beltway, because, clearly, a little cinch goes a long way. Think shortcut to right-now style. If you don't already have the iconic studded Khaite belt, above, you can score a less expensive derivative like this Madewell (which I have!), this Dehanche, this Aureum and this Good American. I also love the idea of belting a coat with this tie-it-on thin option and an oversized Cos blazer with a Celine statment (last pic).
