Woo-hoo🎉🎉 Tomorrow’s my birthday and I’m feeling extra special today! To celebrate, I thought I’d share my top picks of what I’m loving most now.
If you’ve been with me for a while you might’ve noticed that I don’t post shopping links that often. That’s because my approach to style is about celebrating your unique qualities and making the most of your individuality — which general shopping links don’t usually support. I don’t want to encourage impulsive purchases!
Also, after 25 years in the styling business, I’ve come to realize that most women already have plenty of clothes. They don’t need me to tempt them with more stuff! That’s why I usually only share shopping links with my clients who I’ve already worked with to curate their personal style and these new items will perfectly complement their existing wardrobe. (Want to learn more about how my holistic approach can transform your style? See my personal styling services here.)
That said, I do love a fun shopping session! Especially when it ends in finding that one special item that makes me (or my clients) say, “YES!”
So without further delay, let’s dive in!
My 5 Top Picks: Here Are My Current Faves
1. The Treviso Jacket — The Mighty Company
I wrote about this jacket in my thoughtful styling newlsetter when I spoke about what my inner pop star would wear. (Sign up for my emails here if you want tips on how to be more confident in what you wear.) But the truth is, there are so many other amazing pieces from this brand that I’d love to add to my collection!
2. Three Turtle Doves
This store is a must-visit every time I head upstate to Woodstock. Heather does a fabulous job of curating one-of-a-kind clothing and accessories as well as featuring new pieces from independent designers. I bought the belt above from her during my last visit and feel like Wonder Woman whenever I wear it…like I literally can do anything!
3. Women’s Barrel Jean — Levi’s
I got these jeans during Black Friday and I’ve been wearing them non-stop ever since. They’re that comfortable! And if you’re hesitant about trying out a fuller silhouette on your pants, you’re missing out on the ultimate comfort experience. Trust me, they feel just like your favorite sweatpants!
4. Multi-Stick Lip, Cheek & Eye Tint — Ilia
Ok, not a fashion pick — but when it comes to my beauty routine, I like to keep it simple (as I do with my style). Nothing is more overwhelming than a 10 step regimen! That’s why this all-in-one lip cheek and eye stick is perfect for me. I mostly use it on my lips and cheeks, and it gives a gentle touch of color for an overall natural look.
5. The Felize Shearling — MGemi
These moccasins were a generous gift from one of my incredible clients — shout out to Coach Mo! I have to admit, I would have never picked them out for myself as they are not my typical style. But I have grown to love them! I find myself wearing them frequently while working from home, and the timeless design pairs so well with my Levi’s Barrel jeans, creating an unexpected contrast. Oh, and they are incredibly comfortable.

Have a wonderful birthday!
Thankyou, Ilze🎉
I bought the Levi’s XL balloon jeans from Free People because I felt like all of my denim is cropped or ankle. I wanted something to actually reach the floor and be more on trend. I did a big denim try-on sesh and as soon as I put these on I was like yessssss! There was different brand and style that I really wanted to work as well but I couldn’t figure out how to style them without buying even more stuff. So nope!!
