get it before it's gone
An invitation to New Year’s Eve dinner at a just-opened, mountainside private club in Jackson Hole arrived with a dress code suggestion that read simply: casual. Which, in mountain towns—and especially Jackson—means anti-flash by design (this is not Aspen), but never careless. I translated that as black pants (okay, jeans but no one could tell!) and a sweater that wasn’t at all straightforward, because it’s too cold not to wear a sweater. I chose a sparkly Simkhai knit. Upon arrival, it became immediately clear that I had aced part of the assignment—the sweater part. In deep winter, knitwear, is the main character, obviously, but it can’t be basic, and if it is, it has to be styled with intention and thoughtful details: socks with pointy-toe heels (a 2026 must!), a belt that actually matters, a sparkly necklace worn over the sweater (important/see below). Which is to say: Toteme’s newest lineup of knits has quietly become my winter-dressing manual, specifically the coveted cape-like sweater (also here in more colors and sizes), the shawl cardigan, and Not flashy, not precious, but considered. Exactly right for a place where understatement is the flex, and knowing how to dress for dinner in the mountains is its own kind of insider language. Also noteworthy: this White and Warren butter yellow cable-knit, this Khaite-like nipped-in cardigan, this blouson-sleeve cardigan and this Guest in Residence cardigan coat that looks like sleek fur!
