Ok ok ok hear me out; I’m not trying to enable you (too much 😉) but I also feel like you are making seriously informed purchases!! Like these are items you know you wanted for your wardrobe and house and now you can buy them because they are proven!

I think (and hope) my success rate is better this year! I definitely honed in on what I really want to be wearing over the course of last year. This year is going to be fun!

Great choices!! My boys looove a tee with thumbholes. I've only worn for running, but you make it look so good here I'm off to COS. Ayede is my find of 2024. The shoes are impeccably made, so comfortable and cool, and reasonably priced. Obsessed.

Firstly: if you told me you were in your 20’s I would have 100% believed you… so embrace that vibe! And secondly: there are so many good outfits in this post. Reading through it was genuinely delightful, and as much as I DO NOT WANT TO WISH AWAY SUMMER (I’ve needed the warmth and sunshine for my mental health!) I am now getting pretty jazzed about autumn, aka jeans/ boots/ knits weather. 100% support all of these purchases, especially because they were considered and already proving to be good investments.

I was saying to someone the other day that I’ll be 27 forever in my mind, haha. Thank you though! Like you mentioned in your own post the other day, I also haven’t dipped my toe in the Botox pond and I don’t know that I ever will? Jury is still out. I’m almost 38 so we’ll see how I feel at 40. Never say never! And yes! Don’t wish away summer, but fall/winter dressing can be so fun because you get the chance to layer.
