I wear linen regardless of the season.  Treat it like a base layer or a 3rd piece that you can take off as needed.

Good prices and quality fabric. Remember to scrunch your sleeves and tuck or fold over the hem to keep you in proportion.

A henley is nice, and make sure you wear earrings and a nice necklace to elevate it.

Add a few brooches and scrunch the sleeves up. Choose a color that looks good on you.

Versatile cardigans wear buttoned up or better yet create a “v” at the top and bottom to add shaping. Bonus! There are lots of colors.

Mostly Cotton

Really trying to only add 100% or high percentage cotton wear.  Cotton just holds up and feels good.  Let me breathe!

Great find! This is a 100% cotton sweater.  I really like the chartreuse color.  It is oversized and I recommend sizing down to keep a polished look. No one wants to look like a square.

I love this sweater it soft and classic and has a light weight. It is 60% cotton and 40% rayon blend but I still feel comfortable even when I warm up.  Get the red!

Holiday and feel good top in 100% cotton. The midnight is classic and I wear it with dark wash wide leg jeans or a velvet pant.

These track pants are so cool and 100% cotton. I love that they are casual and if you pair it with the matching hoodie you have the cool girl aesthetic while being casual and on trend.

Great layering piece and goes great with the matching Sweater Track pants. In 100% cotton, it checks the boxes for comfort. I like that it is cropped but not too short. The brown looks great with jeans and the red is lovely.

Not So Hot Pants

Cotton, Linen, Silk, light weight woll or high natural fiber content pants that are definitely not “mom” fashion but still recognize your changing body and desire to be a fashion girly.

These cotton and linen blend barrel pants can take you through all seasons with the right accessories. A pointy boot high enough to be covered by the pant leg or a refined loafer or sandal.

What I like about these barrel pants is that the rounded leg is more subtle giving it a really polished look.  With the flats and a cotton sweater you can look good and be able to take off layers as you need to. They come in lot so colors like black, navy, and olive, but I love a white pant so this bone looks good all year long.

Lovely cashmere blend socks. They keep you cool and dry regardless of a hot flash and these are not itchy on overly dry skin.
