how cold? someone from SF wrote in with same conundrum, citing weather around 55 degrees. think it's almost the reverse advice! like summer clothes (lightweight dresses!) but with: jackets, sweaters, etc. OR v short things (cut offs, briefs, bathing suit bottoms - not really on the last one) with heavy tops (cardigans, long sleeve knits). 55-70 is kind of my favorite weather -- we get it for like 2 months a year at different times in NY and it's when you can wear sweaters without coats, jean jackets as tops and my fav combo: straight leg pants with very open foot shoes. often, i refer back 2 this: https://www.instagram.com/p/Bter0h3g5fI/
Hi friend! Q about dressing– I'm a senior at Columbia & the "going out" scene in New York always leaves me changing in a frenzy while my friends wait downstairs. I love day dressing, but at night time it's like I forget how to have a sense of style and sometimes just reach for the closest freepeople top from 9th grade I can find. And then I hate the way I look the whole night?? Basically, I'm a grandma and "going out clothes" have always felt so foreign to me... tips!?
When I read ‘outfit = casual, accessories = dressy’ I smiled. This. THIS is the kind of simple statement-that-I’ll-remember-forever (in the right context😑) that I love your writing and style for. Thank you - from a curvy, curly, short (tall enough) getting older but not feeling fresher, going through mid-life confidence phase gal from New Zealand.
Hi this was very helpful... I am in need of so much - in no particular order would love assistance on finding a jumper, good quality white dress that's also sort of a sleep dress but I can wear out too (versatile), a good sneaker (maybe 2n1 street and function), shorts that look nice on bigger hips (i was thinking maybe linen or sleep short type? been eyeing something like this https://www.net-a-porter.com/en-us/shop/product/deiji-studios/lingerie/pajamas/plus-net-sustain-the-04-floral-print-washed-linen-pajama-set/13452677151787061) and good soft sweatpants that are light enough to wear in summer (honestly even sm like nili lotan like) help!!

I just ordered Nili Lotan pants, Casablanca style. I have pretty much a non-existent butt so decidedly unsure, but they're cotton, linen and pull up!
oooo the ones that like, arch out?
No, but I'm considering those too! They look super interesting.

So happy it’s summer :) thanks for sharing! Xo
More T-Shirt recs would be great! I'm not a fan of my arms.
Kule for lightweight (https://rstyle.me/+c3kr_GwPlkoC23D1hDoi3g), Khaite for what I have determined is the best neckline (and a really nice fabric! Like you feel kind of good wearing black tie -- https://rstyle.me/+WnmLZb45I3Uq0-jpb9074A), Entireworld for shrunken - https://rstyle.me/+IVTrajMiT0Chzf33dM1QAQ (and I don't have direct experience w this style, but looks p promising: https://rstyle.me/+7jNv8vH5AGZZ13dZBPgexQ)
let me know if none of these scratch itch!
