Is It Open Toe Season Yet?

And sale shopping

It looks like the weather is finally turning this weekend, and I’m hoping with that comes more motivation and inspiration to get dressed. Because in case it hasn’t been obvious, I’ve been lacking. I’ve also been pretty offline lately, but I did a quick catch up last night and am here to share my findings.

Alex Mill launched their summer collection this week, along with Donni. Solidarity for all of us who weren’t online at the very moment Donni dropped, and missed out on the linen pants. Later today Clyque will release their latest collection, and in it is their updated take on the Hunter pant, the Kira. It has a longer inseam, and no pockets on the back. That and the halter tank… it’s going to be gooood.

Doen’s Mother’s Day Sale is happening, and their basics are tied with Flore Flore for my favorite. The pointelle t-shirt, and scoop neck long sleeve are both included in the sale. So is this yellow cashmere sweater I’ve been throwing on over a black tank and leggings.

MyTheresa’s Private Sale is here, and there’s no shortage of good finds to be had, see the Dries sneakers. There’s an impressive selection of Savette bags (30%! off), and an overwhelming amount of discounted Toteme. There are enough bridal standouts to build out a full bridal wardrobe: satin sandals, a rehearsal dinner dress, and a set for your shower. Wedding guest dresses are in there too: a black gown to rewear forever, and something a bit more festive heading into the summer. Also worth noting: a pair of very good tabis, and because I believe it’s my duty to share every good burgundy leather jacket I come across, there you go.

I’ve randomly spoken to a few people about panel dressing (what to wear when you’re speaking on a panel), and everyone has been in agreement that it’s an opportune time for a coordinating set. If this somehow applies to you, and you’re wanting to read composed and sophisticated, like you know what you’re talking about, this sleeveless gingham top and pant set should do the trick.

My most recent purchase: the Emi platforms from The Row

My hopes aren’t too high in the comfort department, but I love the patent leather and square open toe so much that I don’t even care.! Another latest obsession is the Timmi tank from Flore Flore. I usually wear a M in their tops, but I ended up exchanging my M for an XS. Worth noting.

Red jacket, Hanes baby tee, usual denim suspect, slides and my new favorite socks

Not much to share on the outfit front over here! I’ve really taken the whole uniform concept and ran with it… opting for a white t-shirt and jeans (surprise!) and swapping out the jacket depending on my mood.

This is not an example of said uniform but I did wear this last week. Cropped jacket, cashmere tank, a life saver, in pant form, worn with old Bottega flats and a bag from The Row

Happy Thursday!
