So much inspo in here! And you know I LOVE loulou de saison- honestly, that’s a better deal than I even saw in Paris, and I got some STEALS there because it was sale season. You look fab - what a chic month!

Thank you thank you, friend! I can’t believe I got that coat at such a good price. I’m still not over it!

Libby McCurrach's avatar

It’s insane!

The coat is one of dreams 😍

Emily Grady Dodge's avatar

Truly! I feel so lucky I found it!

How is the sizing on the bathrobe coat? I’m so tempted and waffling between a 40 and 42

Emily Grady Dodge's avatar

Hi! I took a 40 and I’m usually a size 6!

The coat! Such a classic that can live in your closet forever!

Emily Grady Dodge's avatar

Truly! And hopefully give to my daughter!

Love your simple but refined style! And that coat, bury me.

This was so good, I didn’t want it to end! You wear a sweatshirt better than anyone. I think the lore & legend of the pony hair coat will live on for generations: “once upon a time, your great grandmother Emily was at Bergdorf’s”

LOLOLOL! Great Grandma wrote something called a Substack, sweetie.

Wow it’s like that coat was fated for you! It looks amazing on you - no wonder the sales associate just needed you to own it!

Emily Grady Dodge's avatar

The way I clicked into this newsletter so fast to hear the details about this coat 👏👏 I clearly need to go shopping with you bc you are a good luck charm! I love how thoughtful you are with your style and how much the pieces you buy and wear feel fresh but also so you ❤️

THE PONY HAIR COAT. NO NOTES. GAHHHHH. Looks incredible on you. What a find! And on clearance?!?! Blessed be.

Emily Grady Dodge's avatar

Closest thing to a miracle I’ve experienced hahaha. I’m so dramatic. But this coat is 1000/10 and I feel like it was written in the stars lmao.

Evonne Sturm's avatar

And this is exactly why we’re friends. Bring on the drama 😂

I love the idea of everyday pieces and special pieces. It also really makes sense that you’re attracted to more stand out bags like the zebra print when your base outfit is quite monochrome.

Emily Grady Dodge's avatar

Yes!! The quiet base definitely leaves space for a louder accessory. Thank you, Sigrid!

You are WEARING that coat, it’s so good!! I loved everything about this.

Emily Grady Dodge's avatar

Thank you thank you! I need to take the coat on her maiden voyage, she’s still zipped up in the bag in my closet!

Jaqueline's avatar

Love it!! Your most worn pieces are so good and so YOU! I love how your new special addition just complements all those pieces ❤️

Emily Grady Dodge's avatar

Thank youuuuu! That’s truly the best compliment anyone could give me.

You managed to make me want some foundational everyday items (the BR sweater and the Gap sweatshirt both look amazing). But- obviously- I need to manifest a ponyhair coat in my life. You have such a powerhouse of a wardrobe.

Emily Grady Dodge's avatar

Thank you x million!!! Mean it!!

Ps. The Br sweater is SO good and soft and all the things. And the Gap sweatshirt too, it’s very substantial! The fabric is great.

The way mall brands can really hit…

Oof this Flore Flore v-neck is haunting me (in the best way! lol) I may need to finally pull the trigger, and size up?! This looks fab.

Emily Grady Dodge's avatar

It’s such a good shirt, I’m wearing it right now!!! Yeah I have broad shoulders so the large is so comfy. I live in it!

Alex DiCapo Patel's avatar

Ok need

LF's avatar

You look stunning as always!!

I also have to say I appreciate the ratio of gifts vs. purchases in your posts! It’s hard to know if things are really worth it once a blogger veers so far into gifted territory, but you strike a good balance!

Emily Grady Dodge's avatar

Thank you!!! And re: the gifting, it’s definitely something I’m figuring out but I think the answer (for me) is saying no to most of it! The things I gladly accepted were on my wishlist already but it is a tricky thing. I’m really glad to hear your feedback that it seems like a good balance because that’s definitely how I want it to be. ❤️❤️

It takes a lot for someone to influence me on basics! Well done sister. Also, I'm so happy for you with that coat...... WHAT A FIND!

Emily Grady Dodge's avatar

🥳🥳🥳 best compliment Jordan haha! Thank you! 😘

Elin Strong's avatar

THE COAT THE COAT THE COAT. Congratulations, she's a beauty. And that Dorsey necklace...I get it, love when a piece of jewelry is so good you never want to take it off. One less thing to think about!

Emily Grady Dodge's avatar

One less thing to think about is RIGHT!!! Thank you friend ❤️❤️
